It\u2019s just as gorgeous and picturesque as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nomadicmatt.com\/travel-guides\/greece-travel-tips\/santorini\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Santorini<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nomadicmatt.com\/travel-guides\/greece-travel-tips\/mykonos\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Mykonos<\/a> but without the crowds or exorbitant prices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Home to around 20,000 people, the island is the largest in the chain and is dotted with the iconic, white-washed cube-shaped homes that have made this corner of the world famous. It\u2019s a lot quieter than other islands in the Cyclades and its size makes it easy to feel like you\u2019re in the region by yourself. You\u2019ll find charming villages, pristine beaches, and well-signed trails (including hiking up the mountain where Zeus was supposedly hidden after his birth) as well as a Venetian fort. Plus, it\u2019s way cheaper than other islands in the chain. You can get incredible deals here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I love this island and can&#8217;t recommend it enough! I absolutely love it here. Make sure you visit!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This travel guide to Naxos will help you plan your trip, save money, and make the most out of your time in paradise.<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.kb-row-layout-id240226_78b177-b4 > .kt-row-column-wrap{align-content:start;}:where(.kb-row-layout-id240226_78b177-b4 > .kt-row-column-wrap) >

Do in Naxos<\/h3>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/media.nomadicmatt.com\/2022\/naxos2.jpg\" alt=\"The marble Portara gate at sunset in Naxos, Greece.\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. See the Portara<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>This towering marble gate, or &#8220;Great Door,&#8221; is all that remains of an ancient temple from 530 BCE. The origins of the temple are unknown, with some claiming it to be dedicated to the Greek god Apollo, others to Dionysus (god of wine), and still others to Athena (goddess of wisdom). Each of the marble slabs that make up the gate stands 6 meters (19.6 feet) high, 3.5 meters (11.5 feet) wide, and weighs 20 tons. A very quick walk from the main town, come here for sunset as the views are amazing!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Lounge at Plaka Beach<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>This postcard-perfect stretch of beach boasts inviting turquoise waters where you can swim and enjoy water sports. The beach is located on the west coast, about 9 kilometers (5.6 miles) from Naxos Town, and stretches 4 kilometers (2.5 miles) so there&#8217;s plenty of space to lounge away the day. The beach has pristine white sand and, though popular, it\u2019s definitely not the busiest on the island. You can rent lounge chairs and umbrellas from 6.50 EUR for the day. Note that the southern part of the beach is especially popular with nudists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Explore Naxos Castle<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Naxos Castle (or the Kastro) refers to the walled section of town that dates to the 13th century, when the region was under Venetian control. It&#8217;s one of the few surviving medieval towns in the country and a nice place to stroll around for a few hours. Today, the town is home to a 16th-century cathedral, shops, galleries, cafes, bars, and museums (including the Naxos Archaeological Museum and Venetian and Folk History Museum). You&#8217;ll also get stunning views from the top, as it&#8217;s the highest point around.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Hike Mount Zas<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>At 1,000 meters (3,280 feet) high, Mount Zas (Mount Zeus) is the highest point in the Cyclades. Legend states that this is where the god Zeus (as well as his son Dionysus) was born and raised, making it an important mountain in Greek history and mythology. Mount Zas is located near Danakos village, about 18 kilometers (11 miles) from Naxos Town. The hike is about 5 kilometers (3 miles) with an elevation gain of 500 meters (1640 feet). It\u2019s considered strenuous, so make sure you\u2019re ready for a workout. Along the way, you\u2019ll pass the Cave of Zeus, which you can explore a bit if you bring a flashlight or headlamp. Expect hikes to take between 2-3 hours, and bring water as there is no shade!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Explore Chora<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Chora (which means simply &#8220;town&#8221; in Greek), or Naxos Town, is the capital of Naxos and is home to around 7,000 people. There\u2019s an interesting mix of Cycladic and Venetian architecture here, with the medieval Kastro at the top of the hill, and white-washed buildings juxtaposed with splashes of color popping everywhere. The Kastro (castle) has exhibits showing the Venetian influence on the island and also houses the Archaeological Museum of Naxos. You\u2019ll find tons of restaurants, cafes, museums, clubs, and live music along the harbor front and in the winding alleys around the castle. If you hike up into the surrounding hills, you can visit the ruined Temple of Dionysus to the south and the Chapel of Agios Ioannis Theologos is tucked into the rocks to the north of town.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<div data-gyg-widget=\"auto\" data-gyg-partner-id=\"LLKQJ38\">&nbsp;<\/div>\n\n\n<style>.kb-row-layout-id240226_eaaf3f-85 > .kt-row-column-wrap{align-content:start;}:where(.kb-row-layout-id240226_eaaf3f-85 > .kt-row-column-wrap) > .wp-block-kadence-column{justify-content:start;}.kb-row-layout-id240226_eaaf3f-85 > .kt-row-column-wrap{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-md, 2rem);row-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-md, 2rem);padding-top:var(--global-kb-spacing-sm, 1.5rem);padding-bottom:var(--global-kb-spacing-sm, 1.5rem);grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}.kb-row-layout-id240226_eaaf3f-85 > .kt-row-layout-overlay{opacity:0.30;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kb-row-layout-id240226_eaaf3f-85 > .kt-row-column-wrap{grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kb-row-layout-id240226_eaaf3f-85 > .kt-row-column-wrap{grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}}<\/style><div class=\"kb-row-layout-wrap kb-row-layout-id240226_eaaf3f-85 alignnone wp-block-kadence-rowlayout\" id=\"seedo\"><div class=\"kt-row-column-wrap kt-has-1-columns kt-row-layout-equal kt-tab-layout-inherit kt-mobile-layout-row kt-row-valign-top\">\n<style>.kadence-column240226_81945a-72 > .kt-inside-inner-col,.kadence-column240226_81945a-72 > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{border-top-left-radius:0px;border-top-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-left-radius:0px;}.kadence-column240226_81945a-72 > .kt-inside-inner-col{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-sm, 1rem);}.kadence-column240226_81945a-72 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}.kadence-column240226_81945a-72 > .kt-inside-inner-col > .aligncenter{width:100%;}.kadence-column240226_81945a-72 > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{opacity:0.3;}.kadence-column240226_81945a-72{position:relative;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kadence-column240226_81945a-72 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;justify-content:center;}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kadence-column240226_81945a-72 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;justify-content:center;}}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-column kadence-column240226_81945a-72\"><div class=\"kt-inside-inner-col\"><div class=\"gb-container gb-container-7d671ee0 heading-line\" id=\"section-title\">\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading240226_ee3cb3-58, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading240226_ee3cb3-58[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading240226_ee3cb3-58\"]{padding-right:var(--global-kb-spacing-xs, 1rem);padding-left:var(--global-kb-spacing-xs, 1rem);text-align:center;font-style:normal;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading240226_ee3cb3-58 mark.kt-highlight, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading240226_ee3cb3-58[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading240226_ee3cb3-58\"] mark.kt-highlight{font-style:normal;-webkit-box-decoration-break:clone;box-decoration-break:clone;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}<\/style>\n<h3 class=\"kt-adv-heading240226_ee3cb3-58 wp-block-kadence-advancedheading has-theme-palette-9-background-color has-background\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading240226_ee3cb3-58\">Other Things to See and Do in Naxos<\/h3>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Wander Chalki<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Tucked away in the center of the island, Chalki (or Halki) village is the former capital of Naxos. The region surrounding the village is very fertile and one of the main olive-producing areas in the Cyclades. It\u2019s also home to countless groves of citron trees, from which the famous Naxian liqueur is made. You can even take a free tour of the Vallindra Kitron distillery to see how this Greek aperitif is produced. While in town, wander the pedestrian-only streets, pop into the art gallery, and sit in the sun at one of the many cafes (Dolce Vita is the most famous).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Swim and snorkel in a sea cave<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Rina Cave is a secluded cave that\u2019s only accessible by water, meaning you\u2019ll have to take a boat to get here. Upon arrival, you\u2019ll be rewarded with a fantastic swimming and snorkeling spot under the cave\u2019s rock dome. Swim in the cool turquoise water and observe the marine life or just hang out on the boat. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.getyourguide.com\/agia-anna-l179734\/naxos-jason-daily-cruise-to-koufonisia-with-bbq-t460815\/?partner_id=LLKQJ38&amp;utm_medium=online_publisher&amp;placement=content-middle\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Full-day tours<\/a> cost 80 EUR. These typically include all the snorkeling gear you\u2019ll need plus food and drinks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Relax on Agios Prokopios Beach<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Located about 6 kilometers (3.7 miles) from Chora, this beach is considered one of the most beautiful beaches in Greece. There are two parts to the 1.5 kilometers (1 mile) stretch of beach: one part is natural and undeveloped, while the other is more developed, offering sunbeds to rent and beachside cafes. During the busy summer months, there\u2019s plenty of entertainment during the day and the party continues into the evening. There are plenty of snack bars and tavernas as well. Bring a book, pack some food, and lounge the day away!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Try windsurfing<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>During the summer, the island\u2019s winds create the perfect conditions for windsurfing, making this a popular activity for locals and tourists alike. Mikri Vigla, Agios Georgios (Floisvos), and Laguna are all magnificent spots for windsurfing, with facilities offering courses and equipment rentals. A one-hour beginner lesson starts at 70 EUR, while a 1-day rental costs about 75 EUR. If you don\u2019t want to surf, you can always just sit on the beach or at a nearby caf\u00e9 to watch others catch the waves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Hike from village to village<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Naxos has hundreds of kilometers of hiking trails cross-crossing the landscape. The trails pass by ancient churches and monasteries and through farmland, olive groves, and vineyards. You can start and end in any number of small villages, making these trails the perfect way to experience the island. The footpaths are well signed so you won\u2019t get lost. There are a variety of paths of different lengths and difficulties so you can find something for your experience level. One of my favorites was the Naxos Village Trail that takes you from Melanes to the small villages of Kouros and Myloi and back to Melanes. Along the way, you pass through bamboo groves and open fields. The landscapes are incredible and the trail lets you explore the interior of the island. Just make sure to wear a hat, wear sunscreen, and bring water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. See street art in an abandoned hotel<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Wind your way up from Alyko Beach and into a cedar forest, where you\u2019ll come upon an abandoned hotel complex turned street art gallery. The hotel, which was built in the 1960s, was never finished. Today, both nature and artists have given the uncompleted buildings new life. You can see works by famous street artist WD (Wild Drawing), including his rooftop mural Faces in the Sea, created in memory of Syrian refugees who drowned while attempting to cross the Mediterranean and Aegean seas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7. Visit Panagia Drossiani Church<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Located in the middle of the island, this is one of the oldest churches in the country (some of the walls and frescoes date to the 7th century, making them the oldest in the Balkans). Monks and nuns secretly taught children Greek here during the Turkish occupation (which lasted for centuries) when doing so was forbidden. The church itself is part of an old monastery and you can see how the three separate chapels were joined together. The interiors are dimly lit through the small windows giving the whole place a cave-like feel. It&#8217;s open daily from 11am-5pm and admission is by donation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">8. Day trip around the island<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>If you don&#8217;t want to rent a car, the best way to explore the island is via a bus tour. Most tours last 8 hours and cover tons of highlights, including villages, beaches, and ruins. Sure, it&#8217;s touristy but it&#8217;s also a fun and easy way to see a lot in a short amount of time. Buses have AC and tours start at just 30 EUR (not including lunch). If you don&#8217;t have a car, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.getyourguide.com\/naxos-l145614\/naxos-island-highlights-bus-tour-with-swim-stop-t403851\/?partner_id=LLKQJ38&amp;utm_medium=online_publisher&amp;placement=content-middle\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">it&#8217;s the best way to see the island<\/a>. You\u2019ll get to see the Temple of Demeter, see a pottery demonstration, visit small villages like Chalkio and Apollonas, and stop for a swim before heading back. There\u2019s plenty of time built in for wandering, taking photos, and grabbing a bite to eat along the way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">9. Take a sailing trip<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Naxos, like all the Greek Islands, is meant to be explored by boat. There are tons of sailing trips available on Naxos, ranging from half-day excursions to multi-day getaways. Half-day and full-day trips are the most common choice, with boats taking you around the island so you can swim and snorkel and cliff jump (most include a stop at the Rina cave). Expect to pay around 70-150 EUR for a full-day tour, including lunch. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.getyourguide.com\/naxos-l145614\/naxos-rhina-cave-and-islands-catamaran-cruise-with-lunch-t349126\/?partner_id=LLKQJ38&amp;utm_medium=online_publisher&amp;placement=content-top\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Actionseaze Yachting<\/a> runs a tour for 142 EUR that includes snorkeling, lunch, and a visit to Rhina Cave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">10. Visit the Temple of Demeter<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Built of Naxian marble in the 6th century BCE, this temple is dedicated to Demeter, the ancient goddess of agriculture. Over the years, it was converted into a Christian basilica and a chapel was added later on. The area fell into disrepair until the mid-20th century, when archaeologists rediscovered the ruins and later restored them so that they could be enjoyed by visitors today. There&#8217;s a small museum at the archaeological site that you can visit for free.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div data-gyg-widget=\"auto\" data-gyg-partner-id=\"LLKQJ38\">&nbsp;<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<style>.kb-row-layout-id240226_6887a2-44 > .kt-row-column-wrap{align-content:start;}:where(.kb-row-layout-id240226_6887a2-44 > .kt-row-column-wrap) > .wp-block-kadence-column{justify-content:start;}.kb-row-layout-id240226_6887a2-44 > .kt-row-column-wrap{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-md, 2rem);row-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-md, 2rem);padding-top:var(--global-kb-spacing-sm, 1.5rem);padding-bottom:var(--global-kb-spacing-sm, 1.5rem);grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}.kb-row-layout-id240226_6887a2-44 > .kt-row-layout-overlay{opacity:0.30;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kb-row-layout-id240226_6887a2-44 > .kt-row-column-wrap{grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kb-row-layout-id240226_6887a2-44 > .kt-row-column-wrap{grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}}<\/style><div class=\"kb-row-layout-wrap kb-row-layout-id240226_6887a2-44 alignnone wp-block-kadence-rowlayout\" id=\"safe\"><div class=\"kt-row-column-wrap kt-has-1-columns kt-row-layout-equal kt-tab-layout-inherit kt-mobile-layout-row kt-row-valign-top\">\n<style>.kadence-column240226_503e6d-f7 > .kt-inside-inner-col,.kadence-column240226_503e6d-f7 > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{border-top-left-radius:0px;border-top-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-left-radius:0px;}.kadence-column240226_503e6d-f7 > .kt-inside-inner-col{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-sm, 1rem);}.kadence-column240226_503e6d-f7 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}.kadence-column240226_503e6d-f7 > .kt-inside-inner-col > .aligncenter{width:100%;}.kadence-column240226_503e6d-f7 > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{opacity:0.3;}.kadence-column240226_503e6d-f7{position:relative;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kadence-column240226_503e6d-f7 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;justify-content:center;}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kadence-column240226_503e6d-f7 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;justify-content:center;}}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-column kadence-column240226_503e6d-f7\"><div class=\"kt-inside-inner-col\"><div class=\"gb-container gb-container-b68a4ab2 heading-line\" id=\"section-title\">\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading240226_22b4b2-c3, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading240226_22b4b2-c3[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading240226_22b4b2-c3\"]{padding-right:var(--global-kb-spacing-xs, 1rem);padding-left:var(--global-kb-spacing-xs, 1rem);text-align:center;font-style:normal;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading240226_22b4b2-c3 mark.kt-highlight, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading240226_22b4b2-c3[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading240226_22b4b2-c3\"] mark.kt-highlight{font-style:normal;-webkit-box-decoration-break:clone;box-decoration-break:clone;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}<\/style>\n<h3 class=\"kt-adv-heading240226_22b4b2-c3 wp-block-kadence-advancedheading has-theme-palette-9-background-color has-background\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading240226_22b4b2-c3\">How to Stay Safe in Naxos<\/h3>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Naxos is very safe. Violent attacks are uncommon so petty crime is about the worst that could happen here. Fortunately, Greek police have really cracked down on perpetrators so even that is rare. Just keep your valuables out of sight and you\u2019ll likely be fine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Be careful when driving as Greek drivers tend to be on the more aggressive side and some of the roads aren\u2019t very well maintained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you go hiking, check the weather. Bring sunscreen, water, and a hat. It can get incredibly hot here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Solo female travelers should generally feel safe here. However, be sure to follow standard safety precautions (never leave your drink unattended at the bar, never walk home alone intoxicated, etc.). For specific information about a place, check out one of the many incredible solo female travel blogs on the web. They\u2019ll give you tips and advice that I can\u2019t.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Scams here are rare, but if you&#8217;re worried about getting ripped off, you can read about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nomadicmatt.com\/travel-blogs\/avoid-travel-scams\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">common travel scams to avoid right here.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you experience an emergency, dial 112 for assistance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Always trust your gut instinct. Make copies of your personal documents, including your passport and ID.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The most important piece of advice I can offer is to purchase good travel insurance. Travel insurance protects you against illness, injury, theft, and cancellations. It&#8217;s comprehensive protection in case anything goes wrong. I never go on a trip without it as I&#8217;ve had to use it many times in the past.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"nm-sw-box\"><center><div class=\"safetywing-price-widget\" data-safetywingaffiliateid=\"24768462\"><\/div>\r\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/safetywing-static\/widget\/safetywing-price-widget.js\"><\/script><\/center><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<style>.kb-row-layout-id240226_8e1920-b3 > .kt-row-column-wrap{align-content:start;}:where(.kb-row-layout-id240226_8e1920-b3 > .kt-row-column-wrap) > .wp-block-kadence-column{justify-content:start;}.kb-row-layout-id240226_8e1920-b3 > .kt-row-column-wrap{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-md, 2rem);row-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-md, 2rem);padding-top:var(--global-kb-spacing-sm, 1.5rem);padding-bottom:var(--global-kb-spacing-sm, 1.5rem);grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}.kb-row-layout-id240226_8e1920-b3 > .kt-row-layout-overlay{opacity:0.30;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kb-row-layout-id240226_8e1920-b3 > .kt-row-column-wrap{grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kb-row-layout-id240226_8e1920-b3 > .kt-row-column-wrap{grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}}<\/style><div class=\"kb-row-layout-wrap kb-row-layout-id240226_8e1920-b3 alignnone wp-block-kadence-rowlayout\" id=\"stay\"><div class=\"kt-row-column-wrap kt-has-1-columns kt-row-layout-equal kt-tab-layout-inherit kt-mobile-layout-row kt-row-valign-top\">\n<style>.kadence-column240226_bf6049-62 > .kt-inside-inner-col,.kadence-column240226_bf6049-62 > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{border-top-left-radius:0px;border-top-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-left-radius:0px;}.kadence-column240226_bf6049-62 > .kt-inside-inner-col{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-sm, 1rem);}.kadence-column240226_bf6049-62 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}.kadence-column240226_bf6049-62 > .kt-inside-inner-col > .aligncenter{width:100%;}.kadence-column240226_bf6049-62 > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{opacity:0.3;}.kadence-column240226_bf6049-62{position:relative;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kadence-column240226_bf6049-62 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;justify-content:center;}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kadence-column240226_bf6049-62 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;justify-content:center;}}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-column kadence-column240226_bf6049-62\"><div class=\"kt-inside-inner-col\"><div class=\"gb-container gb-container-3c709811 heading-line\" id=\"section-title\">\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading240226_839661-a9, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading240226_839661-a9[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading240226_839661-a9\"]{padding-right:var(--global-kb-spacing-xs, 1rem);padding-left:var(--global-kb-spacing-xs, 1rem);text-align:center;font-style:normal;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading240226_839661-a9 mark.kt-highlight, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading240226_839661-a9[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading240226_839661-a9\"] mark.kt-highlight{font-style:normal;-webkit-box-decoration-break:clone;box-decoration-break:clone;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}<\/style>\n<h3 class=\"kt-adv-heading240226_839661-a9 wp-block-kadence-advancedheading has-theme-palette-9-background-color has-background\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading240226_839661-a9\">Where to Stay in Naxos<\/h3>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>There are no hostels on Naxos, but there are many affordable bed and breakfasts.

Accommodation and taxis will be your biggest expenses, especially during peak season. Here are my favorite ways to save money in Naxos:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Use the Greek salad\/bread rule<\/strong> \u2013 If the bread cover is .50 EUR or a Greek salad is less than 7 EUR, the restaurant is cheap. If the cover is around 1 EUR and a salad is 7-8.50 EUR, the prices are average. Anything more than that and the place is expensive. Use this rule to figure out how to eat at cheap restaurants.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Eat super cheap<\/strong> \u2013 Gyros and other street snacks only cost a few euros and can keep you full for around 10-15 EUR per day if you\u2019re on a tight budget.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Rent a moped<\/strong> \u2013 You can usually rent a moped for around 16 EUR per day. Just drive carefully on the winding mountain roads, as Greek drivers tend to be aggressive.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Redeem hotel points<\/strong> &#8211; You can sign up for travel credit cards and use those points to pay for accommodation on your trip. You\u2019ll get at least 1-2 free nights from most cards when you sign up, which can save you a lot. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nomadicmatt.com\/travel-blogs\/points-miles-for-beginners\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">This post covers the basics<\/a> so you can start earning points today and have plenty saved by the time you travel.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Take public transportation<\/strong> \u2013 Buses, while sometimes running on inconvenient schedules, are the best way to get around Naxos. Taxis are very expensive so minimize their use whenever you can and stick with the buses.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Visit in the off-season<\/strong> \u2013 July and August are the most expensive months, so skip the middle of summer if you\u2019re on a budget.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Stay with a local<\/strong> \u2013 Couchsurfing is a great way to get a free place to stay and meet locals. You&#8217;ll get a free place to stay and you&#8217;ll get to connect with a local who can share their tips and advice. There aren&#8217;t a ton of hosts here though so send your requests early.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Buy wine at the store<\/strong> \u2013 You can buy a tasty bottle of wine for around 8 EUR at the store. It\u2019s a lot cheaper than drinking at the bar.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Rent a car<\/strong> \u2013 Car rentals can be incredibly cheap in Naxos. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discovercars.com\/?a_aid=nomadicmatt\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Prices start at just 20 EUR per day<\/a> when booked in advance. Drivers need to be at least 21 and have an International Driving Permit. If you&#8217;re traveling with people, this is the cheapest way to get around.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Bring a water bottle<\/strong> \u2013 The tap water here is generally safe to drink so bring a reusable water bottle to save money and reduce your plastic use. <a href=\"https:\/\/lifestraw.xyibsh.net\/B0AY14\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">LifeStraw<\/a> is my go-to brand as their bottles have built-in filters to ensure your water is always clean and safe.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<style>.kb-row-layout-id240226_b8b38c-db > .kt-row-column-wrap{align-content:start;}:where(.kb-row-layout-id240226_b8b38c-db > .kt-row-column-wrap) > .wp-block-kadence-column{justify-content:start;}.kb-row-layout-id240226_b8b38c-db > .kt-row-column-wrap{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-md, 2rem);row-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-md, 2rem);padding-top:var(--global-kb-spacing-sm, 1.5rem);padding-bottom:var(--global-kb-spacing-sm, 1.5rem);grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}.kb-row-layout-id240226_b8b38c-db > .kt-row-layout-overlay{opacity:0.30;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kb-row-layout-id240226_b8b38c-db > .kt-row-column-wrap{grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kb-row-layout-id240226_b8b38c-db > .kt-row-column-wrap{grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}}<\/style><div class=\"kb-row-layout-wrap kb-row-layout-id240226_b8b38c-db alignnone wp-block-kadence-rowlayout\" id=\"getaround\"><div class=\"kt-row-column-wrap kt-has-1-columns kt-row-layout-equal kt-tab-layout-inherit kt-mobile-layout-row kt-row-valign-top\">\n<style>.kadence-column240226_076823-92 > .kt-inside-inner-col,.kadence-column240226_076823-92 > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{border-top-left-radius:0px;border-top-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-left-radius:0px;}.kadence-column240226_076823-92 > .kt-inside-inner-col{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-sm, 1rem);}.kadence-column240226_076823-92 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}.kadence-column240226_076823-92 > .kt-inside-inner-col > .aligncenter{width:100%;}.kadence-column240226_076823-92 > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{opacity:0.3;}.kadence-column240226_076823-92{position:relative;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kadence-column240226_076823-92 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;justify-content:center;}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kadence-column240226_076823-92 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;justify-content:center;}}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-column kadence-column240226_076823-92\"><div class=\"kt-inside-inner-col\"><div class=\"gb-container gb-container-4f458871 heading-line\" id=\"section-title\">\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading240226_2b5c37-5d, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading240226_2b5c37-5d[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading240226_2b5c37-5d\"]{padding-right:var(--global-kb-spacing-xs, 1rem);padding-left:var(--global-kb-spacing-xs, 1rem);text-align:center;font-style:normal;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading240226_2b5c37-5d mark.kt-highlight, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading240226_2b5c37-5d[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading240226_2b5c37-5d\"] mark.kt-highlight{font-style:normal;-webkit-box-decoration-break:clone;box-decoration-break:clone;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}<\/style>\n<h3 class=\"kt-adv-heading240226_2b5c37-5d wp-block-kadence-advancedheading has-theme-palette-9-background-color has-background\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading240226_2b5c37-5d\">How to Get Around in Naxos<\/h3>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/media.nomadicmatt.com\/2022\/naxos4.jpg\" alt=\"white-washed building with blue door and window frames in Naxos, Greece.\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Public transportation<\/strong> &#8211; The local bus system is run by Naxos Buses. It travels to the major villages and destinations (including beaches) around the island. Tickets increase with distance, ranging from 1.80 EUR for a 15-minute ride to 6.20 EUR for a 1-hour and 45-minute ride. Buses on the west coast are frequent but might only go once or twice a day (and at weird times) to some of the villages in the center of the island. Buses run on an even more limited schedule in the winter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Ferry<\/strong> &#8211; Since Naxos is in the middle of the Cyclades, there are many ferry connections from the port in Chora to and from nearby islands. Expect to spend an average of 35 EUR per trip, though you could spend as little as 15 EUR. There is always at least one daily ferry to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nomadicmatt.com\/travel-guides\/greece-travel-tips\/athens\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Athens<\/a>, a journey that takes 3-6 hours and costs 40-70 EUR.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are many different ferry companies and most are not created equal. High-speed ferries or catamarans cost a lot more (book in advance). You can research routes and ticket prices using <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ferryhopper.com\/en\/?aff_uid=nmdmtt\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">FerryHopper<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Scooter\/Quad rentals<\/strong> \u2013 Renting a scooter or ATV is a popular way to discover Naxos. It lets you explore at your own pace and is quite affordable too. Scooter rentals cost between 16-35 EUR per day depending on whether it is peak season or off-season, while ATVs cost around 32-46 EUR per day. Just be aware that Naxos has many winding and mountainous roads, so only rent what you\u2019re comfortable driving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Car rental<\/strong> \u2013 Car rentals here are super affordable, starting at just 20 EUR per day for a multi-day rental. Expect manual transmissions. Drivers need to be at least 21 years old with an International Driving Permit. For the best rental car deals, use <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discovercars.com\/?a_aid=nomadicmatt\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Discover Cars<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Hitchhiking<\/strong> \u2013 Hitchhiking is safe and common in Naxos.

Average high temperatures hover around 28\u00b0C (83\u00b0F) and prices increase during this time. This is when the island is most crowded, but the overall atmosphere and weather are great, so it\u2019s still worth visiting during peak season. Most days are sunny and clear, so sun protection will be essential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Personally, I think the best time to visit is during the shoulder season (March-May and September-October). It\u2019s still warm during these times but there aren\u2019t as many crowds and prices are lower. Average high temperatures usually fall between 15\u00b0-23\u00b0C (60-74\u00b0F). Evenings and mornings are cooler, so be sure to pack layers. You can also expect a bit of rain so be prepared for that as well. The Naxos Festival takes place from June to September, with plenty to enjoy, including art exhibitions, music, theater, dance performances, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Winter is from November to February. It gets cold, with temperatures hovering around 12-16\u00b0C (53-60\u00b0F). Tourist crowds thin out considerably and many hotels and restaurants on Naxos shut down entirely during the off-season (November-March). This is also the rainiest time of year with an average of eight days of precipitation. In short, I\u2019d skip a winter visit unless you\u2019re only planning to visit museums.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"guide-block resources-block\"><h3 id=\"book\"><span>Naxos Travel Guide: The Best Booking Resources<\/span><\/h3><p>These are my favorite companies to use when I travel.
