Koronos (36 Km) is one of the most beautiful villages in Naxos Island. It is a stepped village, scrabbling up two opposite mountain sides and renowned for its emery mines.

As there is no road passing through the village, exploring can be done only on foot. On the square, Platsa is a place where you can rest, have refreshments, local wine or eat grilled food. Matina and Stavros will make the most for you.

Sightseeing - The local Folklore Collection Museum is worth a visit. The church of Agia Marina -celebrations on 17th of July. A turning off to the right, 500 meters prior to Koronos, leads to the church of Panagia Argokiliotissa (4 Km) -picture on the left- which is beautifully situated on a hill and has an excellent view.
