Evraiokastro

When you visit Limenas, just a few meters from Limanaki Beach, you can explore the historic site of Evraiokastro. This stunning area, once the site of an early Christian church from the 5th century A.D., has a rich history and a beautiful natural landscape. This ancient church, which originally stood on the grounds of an ancient temple, symbolized the transition from pagan worship to Christian devotion. 

During the Byzantine era, this place took a new role, serving as a cemetery where forty tombs have been discovered. Visitors today can enjoy a complete experience by combining a visit to Evraiokastro with a walk up to the nearby Ancient Theater and the Acropolis of Thassos, a perfect blend of beauty and historical exploration.

Additionally to the charm of this unique location is the tiny Chapel of the Holy Apostles, a sanctuary that now graces Evraiokastro on the old remains of the past. Just a few meters above the sea, this spot offers a breathtaking sunset view, casting a magical glow over the Aegean waters. 

For those seeking a moment of tranquility and natural beauty, Evraiokastro is a must-visit destination in Thassos. The area is a statement of the island's rich cultural heritage and a perfect spot to enjoy a coffee or a cocktail at the beach bar, making it an essential stop for any traveler.

You will find no sandy beaches here like the rest of the island, just a beautiful rocky peninsula. The water is crystal clear with a deep emerald color that will fascinate you.
