Archaeological Museum of Thasos

Reviewed By Russ5Jersey

Our family of four hired a car specifically to visit the Museum and view the old ruins. We were so pleased that we did, the Museum is so informative and well laid out with amazing exhibits that bring to life the history of the region. There is also a film that helps explain some of the nearby ruins. The museum is closed on Tuesdays and Bank Holidays. Really the top attraction on the island and amazing value for Money.

Exposure is great, sun beds and umbrellas just by the sea, very fine sand, crystal clear water, plenty of bars just there to serve some cocktails...what else to ask for a perfect summer day?

Costis Pottery

Reviewed By annapI1509SX

Don't miss your chance to visit this shop/studio and find some incredible pottery!!! Costis is a wonderfully talented potter and has a true love for working with clay and preserving the tradition of his forefathers. His work is one of a kind, hand made with love, and truly original with gorgeous glaze colours that even sparkle in the sun! ???? The shop and studio is located right on the beach at the corner of the trail and you can buy some very affordable pieces or even some lovely sets that would make for some great gifts! (I wish I had more room in my suitcase!) I'm so fortunate to have visited here and to have spent some time with a true master as well. If you're in Thasos and appreciate true beauty and original art at a super price then you need to pay him a visit. Euxaristo para poli Costi! Thank you for your time spent with me and for sharing your gift with us all.

Archaelogical Site of Alyki

Reviewed By richardWooreCheshire

Visited based on TA reviews and not disappointed. Arrived early morning and walked the short distance to the entrance.to discover free to enter. Path to follow advise and all the relevant sites have good history displayed. Situated right alongside the coast, is a perfectly tranquil setting and had it all to ourselves. A nice walk around the pines leads to a coastal path and access to a lovely restaurant on the beach frontage for a nice cold frappe. Love archeological sites and would say this one is well worth a visit
