A Handy Google Maps Link to Our Fave Spots on Thassos...

Welcome to our very first blog post! Since you're either already here in Thassos or planning your visit, we thought it’d be a good idea to introduce you to a few favourite spots on the island – the ones we think you’ll really enjoy, especially if you like keeping things relaxed and local.

Thassos is one of those places that doesn’t shout for attention. It's easy-going, naturally beautiful, and full of quiet surprises. Think pine-covered hills, clear beaches with a bit of everything (from organised to totally wild), and small mountain villages where time moves at half-speed.

We’ve been exploring this island for a while now – on foot, by car, and even by ATV – and we’re always discovering new places that don’t show up in your usual travel guides. So, we’ve put together a custom Google Map with our go-to spots around the island. From the best bakery in Limenas to a tucked-away cove only the goats seem to know about, it’s all on there.

👉 Check out the map here: Avra Recommendations (Feel free to save it to your phone – we update it often!)

A few highlights on the map:

• Our favourite sunset beach (pretty empty even in August).

• A no-frills taverna with homemade wine and a killer view.

• Some gorgeous waterfalls if you're looking for other water-based activities.

• Where to buy proper olive oil without the tourist price tag.

This blog will be where we share more of what we love about Thassos, with local tips, seasonal updates, and the kind of small finds that make a stay here a bit more special.

Thanks for reading,

See you on the island x
