Must Visit Category: Beaches
Aliko is a wonderful beach on the south western side of Naxos Cyclades. Located only 18 km south of Naxos Town and just after the beaches of Kastraki and Glyfada, Aliko is lovely place to relax away from the crowded resorts of the island.
This special region consists of many small bays with soft white sand and crystal water. Some tamarisk trees on the shore provide shade to visitors, while the beach is not organized with sunbeds and umbrellas.
Above the beach of Aliko, there is a unique cedar forest with marvelous sand dunes. This forest has been declared a protected natural area and creates an exotic landscape. Aliko can be reached by private means or by bus. A local bus to Aliko departs from the port of Naxos 6 times a day.

Very nice sandy and stony beach, good for snorkeling, and exploring aroundings.
The beach is stone not sand but snorkeling was nice (we were there after summer so water quite cold). Fantastic graffiti art in abandoned buildings nearby.
Amazing string of hidden coves and beaches walking distance from the villa we rented. About 1/2 hr from Hora, with a decent bus system or easy drive along the coast if you have a car or atv.
Liked that there was a choice of beaches all within walking distance, did notice some nude bathers at some of the more hidden beaches ‘ Hawaii beach’ so we passed on that due to our two young kids.
Make sure to bring some water, there is a market about 5 min drive away near Glafada, and there are a couple of taverna’s within 5 min in either direction also.
This area is a EU protected pine forest region, sand dunes and pine trees dot the landscape with miles of hiking trails throughout.
