Famed for its marble mining, the old town is surrounded by a stunning four- kilometre chalk white marble wall. The giant working marble factories of Thassos are a prime attraction. Thassos also attracts discerning sun seekers to its fine sand beaches and crystal clear waters. The neighbouring shallow bay of Makryammos is particularly idyllic and perfect for relaxing.
