This is a quicker, more convenient and less expensive option than taking a ferry - and a more relaxing one too. As a passenger-only service departing from the small pier in Piso Livadi, you can avoid large trucks and crowded terminals. Don't worry, though, there is plenty of space for luggage on board.

The boat is fast and modern with comfortable seats and air-conditioning. The boats are a distinct orange color and cannot be missed from the small marina of Piso Livadi in Paros.

This is a great option if you are staying in Agia Anna, Agios Prokopios, Plaka or elsewhere along the west coast of Naxos. Instead of arriving at the busy ferry port in Naxos Town, you arrive directly in one of the island's most popular beach areas, with easy access to nearby hotels, restaurants and regular summer bus services.

There are regular bus routes to and from Agia Anna in the summer. Consult KTEL Naxos for information. axis are also available but there is no official taxi-rank - for extra peace of mind it might be worth organizing a private transfer if you require transportation by car on your arrival especially in July and August.

This is a great-value, direct and fast way to reach the west of Naxos from Paros. We suggest booking early to secure your place as this is an increasingly popular service.
