- Nick P44 contributionsMost commercial of the beaches closest to Naxos ChoraIt depends on what you're looking for. Of the beaches we visited this was the most commercial - mainly sun loungers and not a lot vacant spaces if you just want to put a towel on the sand. Loungers were 25 euros plus, for two and an umbrella; maybe more in peak months when beach would be very crowded. Beach front restaurants had a preponderance of italian- based menus but we found a good restaurant towards the end of the line, that served good Greek food. The beach is mainly sandy with fairly steep shelving into the water although quite safe. There is a lifeguard on duty. There are shops and restaurants away from the sea front. Regular bus service to/from Naxos Chora but this is the last stop on the return journey to Chora so the bus may be very full or bypass this stop altogether!Visited September 2023Traveled as a coupleWritten September 22, 2023
- Louisa A20 contributionsAmazing beachOk, this beach was flawless! We went at about 11:00 in early July. First, we park and there is a beautiful pink salt lake that started at the edge of the parking area. I saw a review mention that it sometimes smells bad, but it did not smell at all. We grabbed a bite to eat at a restaurant right on the beach and reserved some of their beach chairs. The water was crystal clear turquoise, and the sand was great. Not windy. It was just amazing. It was our favorite beach ever. Though there was a heat wave, the beach did not start getting busy until about 1:00 or so. Highly recommend! So beautiful! The colors in my photos have not been enhanced.Visited July 2021Traveled with familyWritten July 13, 2021
- michaelcorkWillenhall, United Kingdom52 contributionsGreat BeachBeautiful sand, crystal clear Aegean Sea, perfect for swimming and sunbathing, with an excellent selection of small shops, bars and restaurants adjacent. Sun beds were reasonable at €6 for 2 plus parasol per day (prices along the beach went as high as €10). The highlight, however, are the sunsets. Truly spectacular. We fell in love with Agious Prokopios...Visited September 2020Traveled as a coupleWritten September 19, 2020

Among below beaches, this was the best of them
Agia Anna: too crowded
Hawaii beach: the sea is not that good
Mikri Vigla: average
Baia Paradiso: this was good but there is no wc or anything, only sunbeds
Plaka: average
Agios Georgios: the sea was good. Better for children since you walk in the sea but the sea level is still in your belly
Therefore Prokopios was the one we chose to spend the day.

This is a great beach. Plenty of sand and no rocks. Maybe a bit windy. It can get quite busy too but it isn’t much of a walk to find space.

What an gem in the Cyclades. I have been to many beaches and this one is by far one of my favorites. Crystal blue waters with white sand. You really can’t beat it.

The best beach at the island some years ago… Now it’s crowded, full of umbrellas and a little dirty. If this is your only option I guess it’s ok. If you have transport then I would suggest to go to other beaches.

best beach in Greece. The only complaint I have is that the people that do wear a swimsuit are trying to mess with the naked ones..you have a ton of beaches to go to, we don't, so please take the umbrellas and piss off to the beginning of the beach or the end and leave the middle for the naked people that are working on their tans. Thank you

Okay, so we didn't go to any other beach, but this was really nice! We got 2 loungers with a lock box at the Golden Beach cafe for 15euros and had wonderful service and food there. The sand at this beach is clean and nice - not soft, but good still good sand.

Subbed city- you can't see the sand for sunbeds. Min 20 Euros for a sunbeds. The only good thing is the sea being beautifully clear

The beach is absolutely stunning. One of the top three most beautiful beaches we have ever seen. Crystal clear water that’s perfect for a swim.

Is there a nude section here on this beach
Natalia A

No!! This id a beach 90% covered by (pricey) sunbeds and umbrellas, and the small space left uncovered is taken over by families and elderly people, mostly.
However, up until a few years ago there used to be a nudist section at Plaka Beach, pretty close to Agios Prokopios. But I haven't been there this year, so I can't guarantee things have not changed.

Is Agios Prokopios beach too close to the airport? Do you hear airplane noise? Thank you in advance!

No. It is 3-4 miles. It is a very small airport with a short runway which takes planes carrying up to about 50 passengers. There are not many flights per day.

I am traveling to Naxos with my family in early July of 2020. We are leaning toward staying in Agios Prokopios because we want to be close to a beautiful beach by day and we will take the bus in the evening into Naxos Town for dinner and activity. I have read a few reviews that there is a bad smell at this beach and that the water is freezing cold. Is this smell common at this beach and is it at a certain end of the beach? We are leaning toward Liana Hotel which is at the end closest to Agia Anna Beach. I am also considering Ariadne Hotel. Also, is the water always cold in the summer here? Are Agia Anna and Plaka Beach warmer? I have a 13 year old and thought this beach area would offer more activity which she would like as opposed to a more secluded beach. I ruled out St. George Beach because although convenient to town, I think that I would find it too busy and crowded and the sand and water doesn't seem quite as pretty as Agios Prokopios. Thank you in advance for your insights.

I also recommend Perla it's 50 mtr from super market and close to the beach, 5 minutes by walk. Has a wonderful pool ask them to give you a room with view to the sea. Also you can prepare your meal in the room. Outside the reception is a bus stop you can take easily the bus and go to Agia Anna or Plaka or Chora. If you ask me Agios Prokopis has the best beach in the island with lifequard umbrellas and sea beds

If my wife and I rent a pair of sunbedss and wanted to take a watch down the beach or go swimming what do we do with our money/credit card/identification?

We didn't notice any lockers or safe place to keep our belongings at the beach itself. I would leave anything of value, aside from a bit of cash, in the hotel safe.

Barbieellis

Yes it’s easy - generally on time
1 every 30 mins
1.80 a trip - buy your ticket before boarding the bus (supermarkets sell tickets)

What’s better /less Rocky Plaka or Agios Prokopis?
ANASTPANAG
Athens, Greece82 contributions
Pretty much the same.
I would prefer plaka if I were to go snorkeling.
Agios Prokopios is more hard to find a parking place.
Nevertheless... they are pretty much alike
