Easter in Thassos

"Your impressions" Ah, it's not easy to write while soul hurts! :-)
We came back a week ago from Thassos. This Easter was the most beautiful than any other until now! :-) While we were at Thassos, I could not even dare to think of our many friends, who are in love with Thassos too - what do they think and how they feel when they know we are there ...

Paxos and Antipaxos Islands

The author of the text: Tamara Djordjevic Mavromihali

A small island, on the map located just below Corfu, an hour and a half sailing from the port of Corfu (some 15 km away from Corfu), Paxos seems to me like an undisclosed territory even for the Greeks.

During the season, the ships go 3-4 times from Corfu to Paxos and back, only for travelers, and those which can transport cars go several

Pause on the way to Greece

There are several good options for a break on the way to Greece.

Veles is one of the largest cities in Macedonia and is located very close to the highway. To reach the city center and restaurant Snupi, that we recommend, it takes about 15 minutes to drive off the highway.

Pastrmajlija is a specialty of Macedonian national cuisine characteristic for eastern Macedonia. Expectedly, there is a "war" about its origin

Impressions from Thassos - Pachis beach

My first year on Thassos. First one, because I do not remember my first visit to Thassos, I only know from stories of others that Potos was popular destination 30 years ago. My husband and I have a child, a naughty girl of 3 years old, whom I call baby in the text (in a way, she still is).

My husband and I are not young, but we have such a

Greek souvlaki - try it!

As we have often listened about the famous souvlaki in Agios Prodromos, last weekend we decided to stop and check they are really so good.

Thassos from the air

I got some nice photos from the owner of the villa Kastanies in the village of Kazaviti, near Prinos.
See places on this island from a different angle. I think you'll get a better idea of the size and layout of the island.
When I have time, I will mark a certain villa in these pictures, to help you comprehend their distance from the beach and town.

Kekes Beach, Thassos Island

One of the beauty of Thassos is in the variety of beaches.

There are plenty of them for everyone's taste.

If you are not one of those who like a monotonous sandy beach with a long shallow, you might like Kekes beach because everything is the opposite of that.

In fact, everyone likes Kekes, even those who love sand.

Well hidden in a pine forest, this beach is different from others.

It has two bays,

Easter on Thasos

The best time on Thasos is the time around Easter. It is because of the beautiful weather, holiday atmosphere and the arrival of the first tourists. Somehow everything seems merrier, the sea is “more blue”, the people are happier... 

This year, an unusually great number of tourists came to Thasos for Easter. Most of them were Greek and Romanian. All of the cafés and restaurants were open, even the ones that
