Plaka is like a continuation of the beach of Agia Anna and is one of the most beautiful beaches of the island. It is a calm and endless sandy beach with, in some parts, big flat stones and amazing crystal-clear waters.
The incredibly beautiful beach resort of Mikri Vigla is located 18 kilometres away from the capital and consists in two wonderful sandy beaches separated by an impressive hill. The northern beach of Mikri Vigla is wonderful, with soft golden sand and crystalline turquoise waters and is blessed by the meltemi (north winds specific to the Cyclades) which make it an ideal place for wind/kitesurfing.
The marina is fairly new, starting its operation in 2002. The marina is operated by the local municipality and an attendant is occasionally on hand (2005) to help visitors moor.
It is located in the town of Naxos and has more than 30 horses and ponies. It is opened every day during the summer and offers two rides daily including evening sunset riding.
