    Description

    Long, mostly sandy stretch between Agia Anna and Plaka with crystal-clear, shallow waters. Partially organized with sections of sunbeds/umbrellas and plenty of free area. Generally open to the north Aegean (Meltemi) winds, so conditions vary from calm to choppy; expect moderate waves when winds pick up. Access is easy by road and local bus from Naxos Town; the coastal road here is partly unpaved with mainly roadside parking. Nearby cafés/tavernas and a camping complex provide food and services. Note: a nudist-friendly section is commonly reported near the small hilltop chapel south of Agia Anna; no confirmed lifeguard presence.
