6Naxos – Iconic Cycladic Culture
A ferry to Naxos opens up an entirely different side of the Cyclades. Known for its long sandy beaches, fertile valleys, and historic towns, Naxos is ideal for both beach lovers and culture seekers.
The town of Naxos (Chora) is a labyrinth of whitewashed streets with shops, cafés, and the iconic Portara — the massive marble doorway of an unfinished temple that dominates the waterfront. Beyond the town, explore mountain villages like Halki and Filoti, where traditional life continues amid olive groves and vineyards.
A day trip here allows you to combine sightseeing, walking through charming streets, and relaxing on a beach in the afternoon.
