The Greek Island of Naxos

Today we enjoyed a late breakfast at Oia, and a quick visit to the fortress above us before we took a bus back to the main town of Fira. We had a quick walk around the town and some lunch. From there we had to take another bus to the port (Athinos) to catch the ferry to Naxos. This ferry was late but that seems to be the norm here, no lines, only a massive bun fight to get on board, and it took off rapidly!
We were met at Naxos port by Mike, who owns the apartments, turns out we about 25m from the beach with a private balcony, we keep pinching ourselves that it's real !
Apart from grapes the main crop here seems to be pistachios, we will undertake some tasting tomorrow (gelatos of course).Read more
