Marchello and Krios
These two beaches are situated in the huge bay of Parikia, on the
opposite side of the island’s capital of the same name. These
are two long and sandy beaches with clear waters. The beach of Krios
is connected to the campsite which is just behind and proposes many
facilities.
Marchello is much quieter. The two beaches have a nice view over
the capital and the capitals’ port with boats getting in and
out times to times.
These beaches can be reached by caiques(small fishing boat transformed
in summer in tourist transportation) from the port of Parikia with
trips every 15mn. These beaches can also be reached by road.
Parasporos
The beach is situated in the south west of Parikia. It is a nice
large sandy beach with clear waters. The beach is situated next
to a campsite and gets quickly overcrowded. Depending on the wind
direction, the beach can create many inoffensive waves which are
appreciated by the children. There are a couple of beach bars and
some parties are organised in summer time.
The beach can be reached by the road and a bus stop is situated
close to it.
Santa Maria Beach
The beach of Santa Maria is situated in the area of Naoussa. It
is actually a long beautiful coastline which is divided in several
soft sandy beaches. Once there, you will have a great view over
the island of Naxos. It is a full organised beach offering sun beds
and umbrellas as well as water sports facilities: windsurf, scuba
diving…
The beach is connected to a campsite and gets overcrowded in pick
season.
Santa Maria can be reached by bus and some times even by caique
from the port of Naoussa.
