The City of Thassos

Thassos Town, also known as Limenas, serves as the capital and primary town of Thassos Island. Nestled at the island’s northeast edge, approximately 31 km south of Kavala, the town’s alternative name “Harbour of Thasos” reflects its historical prominence as a harbour settlement.

Steeped in heritage, Thassos Town showcases a blend of modernity and tradition, offering visitors glimpses of ancient ruins, archaeological sites, and lively atmosphere adorned with local shops, charming cafes, and welcoming tavernas along its scenic waterfront.
