The fertile valleys of Naxos are well-known producers of white wine, citron, and citrus and are the site of a number of ancient and medieval capitals. Visit the famous gardens ("giardini") and walk between the walls of the ancient Greek city and the viewing the museum's terrecotta artwork. A short trip to Grotta, just north of Naxos, finds the recent excavations of a Mycenaean settlement.
TAORMINA, OUR FAVORITE, AND DON'T MISS THE OUTDOOR GARDEN......

The ship docks in Naxos. Not much there except the beach. You will need to get to Taormina either by bus or by private livery. It is about a 20 minute ride up the mountain to Taormina. The big attraction here is the large Roman outdoor theater that has great views of the harbor.

Really liked Taormina, but felt ships transportation to city was overpriced given that it was given as the port destination.
