These beautiful beaches are what most tourists are attracted to, being the also the most organized beaches on the island. They are considered the most beautiful, and one of the five best beaches of Naxos.

Sheltered from the ‘meltemia’ (sweltering north winds from the Aegean), endowed with excellent sandy shores and clean waters, these beaches are universally acclaimed for their ideal conditions for swimming and water sports. These three beaches form an impressive introduction to the magical beaches that you will meet, beginning with the bay of Ag. Giorgi, south of the island, and reaching the bay of Agiassou. Apart from the availability to hire surfing equipment and water bikes (similar facilities are available at Agios Prokopios and plaka), one meets many taverns by the sea, bars and clubs. On the extensive shores of Agia Anna, you will meet a rare type of cedar tree that grows in the sand similar to that of the palm tree.
