To Naxos Island

After leaving Vass, we made our way to Naxos due to be swayed by many windsurfers we met on route on the Ancona Ferry.

26/7/10 -  Enroute we stocked up with 5 crates of Beers (Finkbrau) 7.50euros for 24 stubbies  and some food at the local Lidl  then Wildcamped overnight on Greek mainland between Patras and Piraeus(Athens).  Took out 128L Mistral Screamer and 6m for an evening sail on arrival.  Cooked BBQ chicken on the beach.



27/7/10 - Headed to Piraeus to book and get on ferry, due to porevious experiences we have learnt that this is the most efficient way but you take a chance that the ferry is overbooked.  Going to one of the many local agencies there we booked onto the 4:30pm to Naxos for 118euros each for 1person +Van

Blue Star Ferry Piraeus


After the noisey ferry ride that lasted around 6-7 hours we arrived in Naxos at midnight.  We found a local taverna towards the north of the Island and parked up for the night in there car park with a resident Turkey that scared the life out of me when going to use the bush facilies in the dark.
