How To Get To Naxos Island

Getting to Naxos by Sea or Air is easy

GETTING TO NAXOS BY FERRY

Naxos is very easy to get to by ferry with frequent trips running daily. If you are flying in from Athens, catch a ferry from Piraeus to Naxos with SeaJets, Hellenic Seaways, or Blue Star Ferries which all take between 3-4 hours. If you are visiting during high season, book your tickets a few weeks in advance.

GETTING TO NAXOS BY AIR

Naxos has an airport 3km south of town center. Budget airlines offer cheap flights from Athens and to other islands in the Cyclades.

GETTING AROUND » TAXI & BUS

Taxis are available on Naxos as well as frequent buses that run from Naxos town to the other villages. The bus departs every 30 minutes from the port (close to the tourist information center) which goes to Prokopios, Agia Anna, and Plaka.

GETTING AROUND » CAR & MOTORCYCLE

If you are planning on exploring a lot of the island, it may be easiest to rent a car, quad bike, or motorcycle. Car rentals cost around $60/day but you get a better rate if you book for the week. I use Skyscanner to find the cheapest rental options. You can find rental agencies for the quad bikes and motorcycles along the waterfront but you will need a valid license to rent.
