This morning, we awoke to another beautiful blue-sky day. The winds were low and the seas were flat, making for an easy Zodiac transfer to shore in Naxos. Guests had many options to choose from, including a long or short hike, a marble quarry tour, and free time in town. The hike was particularly interesting, with ancient statues marking the milestones along the route. The trek also offered fantastic views over the surrounding hillside, including a distant marble quarry, which was an alternative excursion for guests. This activity involved trying one’s hand at carving the white stone under the guidance of practiced professionals.
In the afternoon, we ventured into Paros. Some guests opted for the Petra farm tour while others enjoyed a short hike, wine tasting, and village visit. The wine tasting was set in a quaint vineyard and was well enjoyed by all.
