Thassos constitutes a green all around island in Northern Aegean. It is found in distance of 7-8 miles opposite to beach of Eastern Macedonia, very close to gulf of Keramoti and in the estuary of River Nestos.
The fact that it is found so much near the beach of Eastern Macedonia and Thrace seated Thassos as the ideal destination for your vacations, while you can combine them with visits in a lot of archaeological spaces and beautiful cities of Macedonia.
Today, Thassos numbers roughly 13.500 residents. It belongs in the Prefecture of Kavala and is constituted from 1 Municipality (Municipality of Thassos). Thassos is mountainous with amazing beaches with soft light blue until deep green seas and it is covered by dense forests with plane, firs, oaks and pines that often lead up to the end of sea, offering their blessed dew. This is also the reason why it has called him “emerald island”, “green diamond of Aegean” and with many other names that perhaps are heard excessive in those who have not visited it. Beyond its natural beauty however, Thassos has to offer much more. In the island are maintained all the elements of Greek culture and Greek tradition, that have been lost in many Greek islands. The walls of fortress of ancient city, the temple of Apollo, the Ancient Theatre, the Citadel and the chapel of Dionysos with his choral monuments constitute some of the monuments which have been maintained by the past until today.
