Planning your escape to the stunning shores of Agios Prokopios? You’ve made an excellent choice. This beautiful coastal village on Naxos Island offers some of the most breathtaking beaches in the Cyclades, along with authentic Greek charm that keeps visitors coming back year after year. But here’s the thing — to truly experience everything this magical island has to offer, you’re going to want your own set of wheels.

At 365 Car Hire, we make renting a car in Agios Prokopios straightforward and stress-free. With rates starting from just €18 per day, you can explore Naxos at your own pace without breaking the bank. Whether you’re arriving by ferry at the port of Naxos Town or flying into Naxos Island National Airport, we’ve got affordable options waiting for you.

Why You Absolutely Need a Hire Car in Agios Prokopios

Let’s be honest about public transport on Greek islands. While buses do exist, they run on limited schedules and won’t take you to those secret spots that make Naxos special. Agios Prokopios sits about 5 kilometres from Naxos Town, and whilst that might seem walkable, the summer heat and winding roads make it less than ideal on foot.

Having your own vehicle opens up a world of possibilities. Imagine waking up early and driving to watch the sunrise at the iconic Portara, then heading to a secluded beach before the crowds arrive. Or perhaps you fancy exploring the mountain villages of the interior, where time seems to stand still and tavernas serve homemade specialities you won’t find anywhere else.

The beauty of Naxos lies in its diversity. From the sandy stretches of Agios Prokopios Beach to the rugged coastline of the south, each area offers something unique. A hire car gives you the freedom to discover hidden coves, ancient ruins, and traditional villages at your own pace — no rushing for the last bus home.

• Explore remote beaches inaccessible by public transport
• Visit mountain villages like Apeiranthos and Filoti
• Carry your beach gear, snorkelling equipment, and picnic supplies with ease
• Stop whenever and wherever you like for those perfect holiday photographs
• Return to your accommodation on your own schedule

We recommend choosing a compact or small car for your Naxos adventure. The island’s roads can be narrow and winding, especially in the traditional villages. A smaller vehicle makes navigating these streets significantly easier, and you’ll have no trouble finding parking near popular attractions and beaches.

Top Day Trips from Agios Prokopios by Car

Once you’ve got your hire car sorted, the entire island becomes your playground. Here are some unmissable destinations within easy driving distance of Agios Prokopios.

Naxos Town (Chora) is just a 10-minute drive away. Wander through the narrow alleyways of the Old Market, visit the Archaeological Museum, and watch the sunset at Portara — the massive marble doorway that stands as a testament to an unfinished ancient temple.

Head inland to discover the mountain villages. Apeiranthos, about 25 kilometres from Agios Prokopios, is a marble village with Venetian towers and fascinating museums. The drive itself is spectacular, offering panoramic views of the Aegean Sea. Stop at a roadside taverna for fresh goat stew and local wine.

Beach lovers should drive south to discover quieter shores. Plaka Beach, just a few kilometres from Agios Prokopios, offers a more peaceful alternative whilst still providing sunbeds and beach bars. For complete seclusion, continue to the southern beaches like Aliko or Mikri Vigla, where the winds create perfect conditions for windsurfing.

Don’t miss the ancient marble quarries near Apollon on the north coast. These quarries supplied marble for some of Greece’s most famous statues. The unfinished Kouros statues still lie where ancient sculptors abandoned them over 2,500 years ago.

Do I need an International Driving Permit for car hire in Agios Prokopios?

If your driving licence is issued by an EU country, you can use it directly in Greece. For visitors from outside the EU, an International Driving Permit is recommended and may be required depending on your home country. Always check specific requirements before travelling, and bring both your original licence and the IDP if applicable.

Is parking difficult in Agios Prokopios and around Naxos?

Parking is generally straightforward in Agios Prokopios and throughout Naxos. The main beaches have dedicated parking areas, and even in busy Naxos Town, you’ll usually find spaces on the outskirts with a short walk to the centre. A compact car definitely helps when navigating tighter parking spots in traditional villages.

What’s the minimum age to hire a car in Agios Prokopios?

The minimum age for car hire in Greece is typically 21 years, with at least one year of driving experience. Drivers under 25 may encounter a young driver surcharge. We recommend checking specific terms when booking, as requirements can vary depending on the vehicle category you choose.
