Golden Beach, Thassos Access |
| |
The beach is easily accessible by road, just follow the signs to Golden Beach. There is no airport on Thassos Island so you'll need to get a flight to Kavala on the mainland, then the ferry over to the island. Its only a short trip, an hour or so. |

Additional Surfing Infos |
| | This little wave took me by surprise. I hadn't anticipated there being any rideable waves on Thassos Island. I visited the island mid-August and for 2 days, 1-2 ft waves were rolling in at Golden Beach. I ended up buying a kiddies boogie board and messing around on that - I figured the waves were better than nothing as was the boogie board! No idea how frequently this wave comes in or if it gets any bigger but it was a fun little wave for bodyboarders. I wouldn't make a special trip to go to Golden Beach but if your planning a holiday to Thassos, perhaps take your board....just in case!

Overview |
| |
Atmosphere |
years ago, way back in the 80s, I worked on an oil rig situated between Kavalla and Thassos, and on a couple of occasions saw clean lined up groundswell passing the rig and heading towards the island.
This was in Nov after stormy weather, but I would think Thassos has surf pretty regularly through the winter... |
