Amitis beach
Amitis is a beach in the northern part of the island. Like many other recreation areas of Naxos, it is not sufficiently developed for a comfortable stay, but in its own way cozy and attractive. Small waves in the area of the beach occur only with a northerly wind, with southerly winds the sea is absolutely calm, so for holidays with children it is better to choose the days when the wind blows from this direction.

Beach description
The nearest cafes, hotels and shops are located in the local villages, almost 10 kn from the leisure area, so it is better to buy water and food in advance. There is a bus service between the villages, but it is rare, so it is much easier to get to the beach car, which is near the beach organized parking.
There are no amenities on the beach, maybe that's why there are not many tourists here, and the place is rather quiet and secluded. It is recommended to bring with you not only umbrella and towel, but also sunscreen, as the shady areas along the coast are not enough. Even though the sandy area of the beach is very small (about 700 m) and surrounded by rough vegetation.
When is the best time to go?
Greece - a country with a long length from north to south, so the recommendations will vary depending on the place where you are going. The holiday season begins in May and reaches a peak in July-August: there are too many tourists, and the temperature on the southern islands reaches 40 degrees, which may still not play a role on the beach, but certainly not suitable for sightseeing. So the best time to relax in Greece is the end of spring-beginning of summer or September-October.
