Ideally located on Paleokastritsa's main beach, this restaurant serving contemporary Greek cuisine is the best option for dining here. The dishes, most of which focus on the sea, are good and hearty, and the prices are reasonable given the location. The fish is fresh, often caught the same day, as Yiannis' grandfather used to do when he opened the establishment in 1965.

Nestled in a historic building, this restaurant run by Kostas offers a fine traditional menu: Bourdeto, Pastitsado, xtapodi ksidato (octopus salad in vinegar), or psari bianco (fish marinated in lemon and garlic). The fish soup is also famous, and the fried squid is exceptionally fresh. Reservations recommended.

Some twenty years ago, Stelios Trilyrakis returned to his village, Drakona, from his studies at the School of Tourism, to create a purely organic paradise using old grains and production and breeding methods that bring rare species such as Cretan cattle back to the region. He took the time to create a café, which has since been transformed into a restaurant where raw materials from his farm are used, and where electricity is useless. It's a culinary and lifestyle experience well worth the detour.

It's aptly named. It is indeed in this former printing house (typografio in Greek) that the daily Foni Naxou-Parou ("The Voice of Naxos-Paros") was born in 1925, which has now disappeared. Spread over three modern terraces around a beautiful six-century old building, this restaurant is considered to be "the" reference to Naxos, a mixture of Hellenic and Mediterranean flavours. The menu is creative, based on regional products. Some waiters speak French. Very good wine list. Reservation recommended. Not to be missed!
