Naxos - my favourite Greek island!

by tini58de - last update: Sep 3, 2006

I'll remember it the "old" way....

Naxos
Fertile, self-sufficient Naxos is not yet as developed for tourism as neighboring Paros (which is good!!), but it's working hard to catch up (which I kind of regret). Naxos grows and exports olives, grapes, and potatoes throughout the Aegean, and until recently showed little interest in promoting itself as a tourist destination. But as I heard and read, this all has changed in the past 10 years.............

I remember Naxos - my favourite Greek island, which I have visited twice in the past - in the old way and I am so happy that I got to know it when it was not so popular amongst fellow tourists!!!

 Great page, I am going to Naxos next August, thanks for sharing. I see you have been to Venice and Verona, next time don't miss Padova :-). Greetings, Orietta

 This small island is very attractive for tourism, I believe. The Portara seems to be a wonderful sight! Pity that it's the only remains of an ancient Temple of Apollo. Thanks Christine for the virtual tour!
