Merichas Bay
Όρμος Μέριχας offers you a sheltered anchorage along Naxos's rugged coastline, where traditional Cycladic architecture meets the deep blue Aegean. This bay sits within Greece's largest Cycladic municipality, which uniquely encompasses both Naxos and the pristine Lesser Cyclades islands including Koufonisia and Irakleia. You'll find yourself positioned perfectly to explore the authentic island-hopping experience that this special corner of the Aegean provides, with access to some of the most unspoiled islands in the archipelago.
