June 2017 – There is a new marina being built at Liminaria, southern Thassos. From what is there now it is likely to be a substantial marina, likely with pontoons and laid moorings.
Due to be completed in May 2018 – maybe. Currently, it is sometimes possible to berth alongside although it is still a building site, no services, no fees, no contact details. Mooring suspended sometimes due to construction work.
The old port is mainly used by day tripper boats and small fishing boats, there does not seem to room for others.
Go along side the break water in the new port, or when busy drop anchor and go bow or stern to. Power and water are only available from berth close to town, not sure how to arrange for it.
We have been told that in strong North Westerlies the east breakwater might not be tenable, damage to the power/water outlets seem to support this.
