Naxos offers many possibilites for acitivities, though mostly they take place in Naxos-Town. Naxos is famous for the windsurfing conditions – due to the constant north wind in summer Naxos is one of the windsurfing capitals of Europe. You can also participate in sailing tours or go diving. For children the AquaFun-Park with water slides and swimming pools is attractive. Very recommendable are also the hiking tours with Stella.
