Potamia
Approximately 9,5 km from the capital of the island, Thassos town (Limenas), the village of Potamia, built out of local stone and nestled at the foot of the mountain Ipsarion, and from where you can walk easily along footpaths right to the summit of the mountain, 1204 meters high. You can visit the renowned museum of Vagi with its Dionysian statues and sculptures. The road from Potamia, all the way down to the coast, gives you mountain views, right to the sea side village of Skala Potamia – on Golden Beach.

Golden Beach
One of the most famous and most beautiful beaches in the whole of Greece, Golden Beach is a two kilometre stretch forming a deep sandy bay beneath the mountain. The fine, golden sand dips into the clear clean waters which have had the Blue Flag award for cleanliness. The beach shelves gently into the sea, making it safe for bathers of all ages and a full range of water sports and beach games are available.

  On Golden Beach, at the small harbour (Skala Potamia), you will find the ancient building “Tarsanas” which was built in 1908 by the monks of the Prodromos Monastery. All this is enhanced by the effect of the densely wooded green mountain slopes tumbling right into the water’s edge.

Your stay will lack nothing.
The villages and beach resorts offer a wide variety of restaurants, tavernas, fish restaurants and grills. They all offer a choice of local, regional and European cuisine. All tastes and appetites are catered for and your enjoyment will be further enhanced by enjoying a pre or post dinner drink in one of the well stocked and good value bars to be found at every turn.
