Panormos is 53.5km from Naxos Town. It is a sandy beach found at the southeast of the island at Panorama. Arguably one of its most attractive features is that it is one of the quietest beaches of Naxos if not the quietest. The scenic secluded cove of Panormos lies south of Moutsouna, the golden sandy beach, is due to its seclusion, ideal for those wishing to avoid the popular, crowded and noisy beaches one will come across during high season. With a hard look around you may also see the traces of the prehistoric acropolis which was situated on a low hill close to the beach and if you are so inclined, go take a closer look.
This is not an organized beach and due to its seclusion, offers no facilities, no umbrellas or sun-beds for rent, but the beach is really nice and not too big. A few trees are there for shade and the cove is a real delight with warm waters that are of course clean and crystal clear.
One has to go to Apeiranthos village first then Moutsouna and after that the road courses by the coastline through the village of Kanaki and you will be on the road to Panormos beach which is 9 kilometres to the south of the village.
