Just 1.5 kilometers east of the new port in Limenas Thassos, you will find the City Beach or Limanaki, a sandy and beautiful spot to enjoy a day at the beach or take a quick swim before your departure (or right after you arrive at the island). This medium-width beach, with its golden sand both out and in the water, offers a gradual depth perfect for all ages.Â
During the peak summer months of July and August, it may be crowded due to its convenience for those staying in Thassos's capital, making it a popular choice. The beach is well-organized, offering sunbeds and umbrellas from beachside bars, where you can enjoy anything from a refreshing drink to snacks and quick meals. Limanaki is also a wheelchair accessible and well-equipped beach with lifeguards, showers, and changing cabins, ensuring a safe and comfortable experience.
With free parking, excellent facilities, and a relaxed atmosphere, Limanaki Beach embodies the ideal balance of natural beauty and convenient city beach life. You can combine your visit with sightseeing at the archaeological sites in Limenas, like the Gate of Hermes and the Charites, the Ancient Theatre, and the Acropolis of Thassos, which are within walking distance from the beach. You can also enjoy a summer stroll at the park on the right side of the beach.
