Travel to Naxos - Plan your holidays to Mikri Vigla

Transportation - Getting around Naxos

Naxos is located at the center of Cyclades islands in Aegean Sea. Daily routes from numerous harbors of Greece and daily flights from and to the El. Venizelos (ATH) National Airport of Greece compile the aerial and sea water transportation network of Naxos covering all needs of travelling around Greece. Transportation in Naxos is covered by a fair good road network that is constantly growing and improved. Outside the harbor are located the bus terminal station as well as one of the taxi stations providing easy access all over the island to visitors upon arrival. Renting a car or a bike from the rental offices before arriving at Naxos and arranging to be delivered at the airport or the harbor is also a very comfortable solution.
