About Thassos
Stunning beaches, ancient ruins, lush forests, and delicious Greek cuisine.
The Scent of Thassos
“In Thassos everything is calm. The wind, even when it blows, you think it is gently caressing. In its mountains there are no wild animals and that is why nymphs and fairies come to sleep in their arms. The rocks and the slopes of its mountains are not steep and wild and that is why they hide gold in them. The trees are neither towering nor all thick, and therefore they pour out resin and honey. The birds that fly in its forests are neither big nor wild and that is why the nightingales freely sing the hymn of joy. The skies have neither black clouds nor terrifying lightning and therefore its climate is calm and sweet.”
Peter Axiotidis 1928 , “Thassos”
