Agios Georgios Beach
Άγιος Γεώργιος
A city beach just south of Chora, with shallow, gently sloping water. It is within walking distance and suits children and beginner windsurfers.
Agios Georgios Beach extends south from the southern edge of Chora and is Naxos's most convenient beach, about a 10-minute walk from the port. The bay is shallow and the sand is fine, so it is popular with families. At the southern end, a windsurfing centre offers lessons and equipment rental, and the wind conditions suit beginners. Hotels, restaurants and bars are concentrated behind the beach, and you can rent sun loungers and umbrellas. It gets busy in July and August. For a more open stretch of sand, you can continue south to Agios Prokopios.
