A spot of white in the turquoise waters of the Aegean Sea, the island of Naxos is a unique blend of ancient ruins and beach culture. The largest of the Cycladic Islands, Naxos is the childhood home of none other than Zeus, king of the gods. Upon arrival in Naxos, hike over a causeway to Palatia, where the Portara, a stone gateway to an ancient temple that no longer exists, stands alone, the symbol of the island. At sunset, the views of the island, and the sea beyond, are breathtaking.

Hidden in the mountains, Anna provides an unique experience, picking fresh vegetables from the village gardens, helping prepare genuine Greek dishes and enjoying dinner in her family restaurant. The effort made by the whole family to give us an unforgettable evening was fully successful. A hidden gem. The restaurant requires a cab from Naxos and a short brisk walk in the mountains adding to fun.
