Find and book ferry tickets from Santorini to Naxos
The Santorini (Thira) to Naxos ferry heads north back into the central Cyclades, with high-speed boats making the crossing in around 1h 15m from Athinios, Santorini's port below the caldera towns, so leave enough time for the transfer down from Fira or Oia before you sail. Blue Star's conventional ferries also run the route, taking longer but costing less, a reasonable trade if you're not pressed for time. However you travel, you'll arrive at Naxos Town, ready to swap Santorini's cliffside views for something a little more laid-back.
