1 km before Makriamos turn right and follow the path for 4 km to Saliara Bay (a very romantic bay, sandy with crystal clear water and overcrowded in the high season, insufficient parking). It's a must-see location and probably the nicest beach of the island! After 600 m you reach the Marble Bay. It's a white marble sand bay which was used for the shipment of marble, with crystal clear waters and a unique but loud beach bar. It's also a must-see location. In the high season often overcrowded. After 2 km you will come to Vathi Bay. It is also a romantic bay but with a luxury hotel that have their sunbeds along the crystal clear water front. From there a dirt roads leads to Golden Beach. Rental cars may not drive the dirt road there (only 4WD). You can also reach the beaches by water taxi from Thasos town.

Σκάλα Παναγία
It consists solely of a cluster of hotels, campgrounds, restaurants, and more lining the exquisite "Golden Beach," renowned as Thasos' premier coastal destination. No central hub exists here; instead, visitors can find everything they desire. Towards the northern tip of the beach lies a charming, picturesque fishing harbor, which serves as the departure point for various excursion boats. However, the harbor isn't ideal for sailboats, particularly in windy conditions, as the anchors can be problematic due to the presence of seagrass. During the summer season, the beach becomes extremely crowded.
Παναγία
A romantic small mountain village with old, traditional houses, restaurants and a few souvenir shops on a beautiful wooded hill. The "Dragon's Lair" is a cave near the village and is also worth a visit because of the scenic environment.

It used to be a romantic empty beach, but is now one of the most visited beaches of Thassos. It's a long, wide sandy beach hemmed with hotels, restaurants, bars, nightclubs and a camping site.

From there you have a wonderful view over the beach and the mountains in the background.
