About this experience

Step aboard a traditional wooden boat and sail along Thassos’ stunning northern coast, known as the Emerald Isle. This full-day cruise combines relaxation, exploration, and authentic Greek island charm.

Feel the gentle sea breeze as you admire breathtaking views of lush hills, dramatic cliffs, and hidden beaches only accessible by boat. Enjoy a scenic slow pass by the famous Marble Beach, perfect for photos, followed by swim stops in crystal-clear waters at Porto Vathi and Makryammos Beach.

The boat offers comfort with two shaded decks, a mini bar, toilet, and lunch tables. Midday, savor a delicious BBQ lunch on board with souvlaki, fresh salad, homemade dip, bread, and wine or a soft drink—all included.

More than just a boat trip, this is a memorable experience of Thassos from a new perspective—relaxing, refreshing, and unforgettable.
