Very central beautiful beach in the middle of the city, but not very clean.

It has several interesting finds from the area around Kavala, as well as from other ancient settlements. It's worth seeing although it has nothing spectacular to offer.
Picturesque fishing and sailing boats, restaurants, pubs, coffee houses. On Saturday morning, there is an interesting fruit & clothing market (Bazaar). Sit in one of the many cafeterias along the promenade in summer to enjoy the view over the harbor and old town. Especially in the night, it's a good place to drink a cold beer and watch people walking along.
Dimarchio
One of Kavala's landmarks. It was built by a Hungarian tobacco-trader and it is a miniature of a Hungarian castle. It houses the municipality of Kavala since 1937. The little park in front is a nice place to rest under the big trees. In close proximity is the Tobacco Museum (Philippou Odos Str).
It was built around the first decade of the 20th century as a tobacco warehouse by the Turkish tobacco merchant. It's a stylish building, a combination of Ottoman architecture with neoclassical elements. Belonging to Kavala’s City Council it was refurbished and it hosts various events and exhibitions, e.g. the Maritime Museum of Kavala.
It is the central point for recreational, commercial, business and tourist activity. It caters for the fishing fleet, tourism and ferry boats travelling to and from Thassos, Limnos and Mytilene, as well as water sports at its marina.
A 10-minute walk will take you from the northern bypass of Kavala to the romantic chapel. The fantastic view is worth the climb. On foot from the center, it takes about 45 minutes to an hour to get to the Panteleimon Church. Behind the church there is a small and steep path that takes about 30 minutes to reach the White Cross on the top of the mountain. You should take water with you and avoid the midday heat for this somewhat strenuous walk.
