Your bike tour begins at your starting point, setting off through the charming streets of Naxos town as you head toward the Temple of Dionysos at the Yria archaeological site. Riding past lush fields brimming with potatoes and other crops, you make your way to this well-hidden sanctuary, a site of great historical significance.
From there, you continue cycling for about 30 minutes to reach the heart of Agios Arsenios, one of the largest villages on the island. Here, you pause to admire the Greek Orthodox church of Agios Spyridon, an architectural gem that stands as a cultural landmark of the village. This is the perfect moment to take a break, catch your breath, and rehydrate before setting off toward Plaka Beach.
As you ride through the countryside, the landscape unfolds with sprawling fields, grazing animals, and fertile farmlands, a testament to Naxos' reputation as the agricultural heart of the Cyclades. Gradually, the scent of the sea fills the air, and the salty breeze signals your approach to the coast. Upon reaching Plaka beach, the scenery transforms - golden sands stretch as far as the eye can see, bathed in sunlight that warms your skin.
You continue along the shoreline, cycling toward Agios Prokopios Beach before turning onto the main road for your return journey. The ride back is long and windswept, with the northern summer breeze accompanying you as you make your way toward Naxos town.
Finally, you cruise through the city streets, taking in the lively atmosphere, before arriving back at the starting point, completing your unforgettable journey.
