“This year the tourist traffic in Naxos in September appeared strengthened by 10.6%, in coastal boat arrivals, while air arrivals also moved impressively with an increase of 32% compared to last year. The emergence of the island as a quality destination in foreign markets for a visit outside of the high season cannot be characterized as a mere coincidence. Our story finds a response to a special audience through organized exhibition participations, social media development, familiarization trips and a series of publications and distinctions non-stop, throughout the year”, notes the Deputy Mayor of Tourism of the Municipality of Naxos and Small Cyclades, Vangelis Katsaras.
A few days ago the municipality participated in the international tourism exhibition WTM 2024 in London where, with the help of experts, meetings were planned with professionals, bloggers, travel influencers and journalists who “feed” popular media such as Times, MSN, Daily Telegraph etc.
In addition, after the end of the exhibition at a special event organized by the EOT Office M. Britain, the largest island of the Cyclades has been awarded Greece’s top sustainable destination after 13,000 customers voted on two of the UK’s most established travel price comparison and booking engines. In this direction, it was preceded in September by a familiarization trip of specialized tourist agents and journalists, which was implemented by the municipality in collaboration with the EOT Office of Great Britain.
