Tassos is an island in the northern part of the Aegean Sea, located near Kavala, at the mouth of the Mesta River, 6.7 km from Keramoti's nose.

The area of ​​Thassos is 380 square kilometers, making it the twelfth largest island in Greece.

The island is mountainous, so scientists believe it is part of the southernmost branches of the Rila-Rhodope massif.

80% of the area of ​​Thassos is covered with pine, fir, oak, guitar, Laurel, wild chestnut and myrtle. On the picturesque coastline, there are olive, nuts, almonds, mulberries, vineyards ...

The capital of the island is the town of Thassos, often called by the local people Limenas (Port).

Thassos has a nearly round shape and can tour for less than two hours - the coastal ring-shaped island is only 96 km long.

If you want to enjoy the wonderful views, the cozy towns, the natural and historical sights, the small beaches hidden in the rocks, the delicious food, take a day out for a walk in Thassos. You will not regret.

Half an hour (from 07.00 to 23.00 hours) from Keramoti, the ferry takes you to Thassos in just 30 minutes.

Let's see some of the islands of Thassos!
