What to do and see in Naxos, South Aegean: The Best Things to do Good for Big Groups

September 2, 2021 Enriqueta Cusson

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.

The Rum Bar Cocktail & Spirits

Reviewed By Exploration815417

Definitely a must when in Naxos. The fabulous rum selection is impeccable and the service is next level. Our fab guy George was awesome and his knowledge of each item on the menu was extraordinary. As a rum lover, it was a really impressive place. So reasonably priced and such a relaxed atmosphere. The awesome tunes were also a plus. Great view over the harbour and the best place to lose yourself for a day or two. ????

A sunny stretch of sand by the sea, littered with nude and semi-nude sunbathers from all over the world.

This is a great beach. The sand is super fine, there is plenty of space available, and it’s surrounded by shops and restaurants
