Port Thasos
There are two harbors here: the old harbor and the new port – Nea Limani – to the west. Both offer good protection.
The old harbor tends to be pretty full with local craft, all except the northern breakwater, suitable for smaller yachts. Most yachts, however, will probably have to anchor of with a long line ashore to avoid underwater rocks and get ashore by dinghy. There is water available on the quay.
Nea Limani (Limenias) to the west of the old harbor has a new marina with berthing on both breakwaters and is where most visiting yachts tend to berth. Most of the time alongside berthing, or rafting, is possible here. If busy, yachts can go stern or bows-to in the SE corner of the quay where power and water are available.
Limenaria
This harbor is located on the SW corner of Thassos. A 280 berth new marina opened here in 2019 with water and electricity.
