More About Naxos

NAXOS sits at the heart of the central Cyclades group of Greek islands. Naxos is a big island, but most of the tourist accommodation is confined to the south-west coast.

Brochures promise the best beaches in the Mediterranean, and beaches Naxos certainly has. The south-west coast is one long blonde swathe of sand. Unfortunately, much of it is coarse and gritty and many beaches are backed by flat and desolate salt marshes. Inland, Naxos has some impressive mountain scenery, particularly around Mt Zas - the highest peak in the Cyclades. Abundant springs and rich soil create dense green valleys of citrus and olive.

Naxos island's rich agricultural heritage has meant that the islanders have had no need to make many concessions to tourism. As a result, Naxos maintains a strong Greek identity and many villages have a traditional character not spoilt by the demands of the package tour industry.
Holidaymakers looking for a good beach holiday without the crowds and with some inland interest and easy island hopping will certainly add Naxos to their Greek island wish list.

Naxos is the largest and highest island in the Cyclades and the most fertile with many crops and orchards in the cultivated valleys. Miles of white sand beaches are the best in the Cyclades. They are certainly big and the sand often sugar white. But it can also be harsh, ball-bearing granules, and a splash in the sea can mean climbing over underwater rocks that line much of the shoreline. Salt flats back many of the best Naxos beaches, creating an air of desolation that is not everyone's cup of tea. The long empty stretches add to the attraction for those who don't like company, but it may feel a little lonely for those that do.

Everything is big - imposing -, compared with the rest of Cyclades islands. The extent of the island is 435 sq. km and the length of coasts 91 km. The form is an ellipsoid and with a mountainous volume from North to South across the island.
In the backbone of this ridge dominate Za Mountain (1004 m.) and Fanari (908 m.) the highest in Cyclades.

The landscape of the island has many rotations. Plains succeed barren areas, marble mountains lead in deep shadowed glens, areas with vegetation host all white villages and sandy beaches meet the sea. The coastline of the island is almost straight and not forming large natural harbours, which affected the occupations of residents from the ancient years. In the island from end to end beautiful and clean coasts are situated next to small solitary coves. The ground of island is blessed and provides self-sufficiency to life of this place.

The rich aquifer of Naxos offers drinking water to wells and streams of the island. The fertile land produces citrus fruits, olives, fruits, vegetables, potatoes Naxos specials and amazing wine. Livestock-farming and the apiculture are particularly developed and offer exceptional quality meats, milk, cheeses and thyme honey.

From geological aspect the subsoil presents great interest because of the presence of emery, of marble and granite that are exploitable products. The rocks constitute solidly foundations of Naxos and make the island stable against earthquake.

In this imposing and big island of Cyclades, where mountainous volumes dominate, with the highest altitudes in the Aegean, - with the highest peak of Cyclades, the top of Za (1004 m.) - immediately gives a sense of security and "stable", in this turbulent marine state of Cyclades.

Naxos is at the hub of the Cyclades ferry system with other islands not far away, and Naxos is an ideal location for an island hopping holiday.
