Car Rental at Naxos Airport

Airport travel guide

Naxos is the largest of the Cyclades islands in Greece, and it’s located in the Aegean Sea. It is a destination known for its stunning coastline, picturesque villages, fantastic food, and rich history and culture. Despite its increasing popularity, Naxos is a destination that caters to all types of travelers, whether they seek relaxation, adventure, or cultural experiences.

• Naxos Town. The capital and port town of the island, Naxos Town, also known as Chora, is a charming town with a historic castle-like appearance, narrow alleys, and a bustling harbor. Visitors can explore the stone-paved streets, lined with restaurants, cafes, shops, and artisanal workshops selling handmade textiles, pottery, and jewelry. The town is mostly famous for its Kastro district, a picturesque, fortified medieval area.
• Beaches. Naxos is famous for its long stretches of golden sand beaches, crystal clear waters, and breathtaking sunsets. Some of the most popular beaches in Naxos include Agios Georgios, Agia Anna and Agios Prokopios, which are all south of Naxos Town, on the west coast of the island. Visitors can enjoy a variety of water sports, such as windsurfing, kitesurfing, or paddleboarding, or simply relax under the sun. The further south you go, the quieter it gets. The most remote beaches can be found on the east coast of Naxos.
• Apollo’s Temple. Located in Chora, the entrance to the Apollo’s Temple, known in Greek as Portara, is arguably the island’s most famous landmark and features in most promotional videos of the island. More than 2,500 years old, the stunning marble gate is all that remains of the ancient place of worship.
