Hala says

Walk past the beach bars to the southern end; the crowd thins by half every five minutes of walking. Bring an umbrella, water, food, since the back end has no taverna. The wind picks up after 2 p.m. (kitesurfers love it, swimmers do not). Sunset from the rocks at the south end is the quiet one on Naxos.
