Naxos is the largest and greenest island of the Cyclades. Therefore it is often called the “happy island”. Here you can breath the spirit of Greek mythology and history.

Naxos’ nature offers many variations. There are fertile plains and barren highlands, interrupted by gorges densely covered with vegetation that lead to small idyllic sandy beaches.

Mt. Zas (1004 m) is the highest mountain not only of Naxos island but of the Cyclades altogether.

You can reach Naxos via plane from Athens or with one of the many ferry-boats departing from Piraeus/Athens or Santorini. There are also good connections from Crete and Mykonos varying throughout the seasons. It is highly recommended to check the route in advance.
