🇬🇷 The Beauty of Thassos Island in 4K
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 22 พ.ค. 2024
- 🏝️ Welcome to the Island of Thassos, one of the most spectacular islands of the Aegean Sea. Part of Greece, the island hosts amazing beaches made of marble or golden sand, great history, and diverse scenery. This video is a documentary film about my one-week trip on the island.
During this virtual tour, you will be able to explore beaches for relaxation, hikes for diversification and cities, spiritual places, and other cultural places for cultural enlightenment. Arriba Beach, Marble Beach, La Scala Beach, Giola, Dragon Cave, Theologos Village are just a few of the places that you'll be able to see.
🌞With the beauty and variety of its scenery, its plethora of fine beaches, interesting antiquities, picturesque mountain villages, and excellent accommodation, the Emerald Island (as it's called) is a materialization of most people’s preconceived ideas of what a Greek island is all about. Thassos has the added advantages of an efficient tourist infrastructure, friendly and helpful islanders, and a road system with regular bus services that ring the island. However, I won’t deny that having your own car gives you a lot more comfortable and saves a lot of time when you plan to discover the place. Now firmly established on the package holiday map, fortunately, Thassos has not been vulgarized by commercialism and here visitors are respected and not taken advantage of.
Thank you to @forumthassos group on Facebook for supporting me on this journey.

As a Greek (and every summer Thassian) i find this video very accurate.Good job
Wow, that's such a compliment! Thank you
So what're your favourite places to eat?!🥰 Ours is Kazaviti❤️
@@renanabboud-azran5798 depends on your taste but generally speaking Kazaviti is one of the nicest but you can also try Panagia, Theologos, Limenaria and 1-2 restaurants at Saint Antonio beach at Potos or Klisma at Kallirachi!
@@gapostolakis thank you so much 😊
I am literally in thassos
Amazing experience of Thassos Island. Thank you for your wonderful production and sharing.
Thank you for stepping by and writing a nice and kind comment!
Bro you are crazy how you managed this video keep it up👍🔥
Thank you! It's incredible how after a year, people still find it relevant!
Hands down, this the best presentation/travel guide of Thassos island right now!!
Thank you so much! I'm happy when my videos bring value
thymonia beach and golden beach are my favourites .
Indeed, those are one of the best!
@@FramingReality the other great thing about thassos is , you can drive round the island and reach all the beaches very quickly . some are naturist beaches . so have to be careful if you have kids with you .
@@8ballphil150 you have to be careful if you have kinds anywhere, haha.
But about driving around the island, this is exactly as I did. I had a car and drove around. That's the best :)
I went to Thassos last year, all I have to say: B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L.
I'm glad you liked it!!
Lovely I spent a week there arrived in a storm but did not leave the monastery so had no idea of the other places on the island. Thanks for sharing.
Than you for your comment and I hope you enjoyed your time there :)
Am going there next month I can not wait. Look very nice 👌
Great decision! Let me know, after you come back home how it was!
Enjoy your stay and may your holiday be great!
Was there over thirty years ago wow great place beaches empty great next to no tourists brilliant 😊

Great video my friend. Greetings from Skala Marion
Thank you very much! Greetings from Romania :)
It has everything I love, beauty and the opportunity to learn a lot of new things! I'm waiting two weeks to see it all with my own eyes
Amaziiing! So you decided to go there!
Stunning video with a good storytelling, just loved it❤ Keep up the good work🔥
Multumesc mult, Denis! Ma bucur ca iti place :)
@@FramingReality oh wow, chiar nu stiam ca esti roman, dupa clipul asta ti am dat subscribe, chiar este super bine facut si sunt sigur ca a fost multa munca in spatele lui🎉
@@denisflorin1 haha, faina reactia! Mai, multumesc pentru comment. De obicei primesc mult hate, iar commenturi ca al tau sunt super bine primite.
Legat de munca, cam 3 saptamani am muncit la el. Vizita insulei 2 saptamani si editarea 6 zile :)
I go to Thasos in 5 days, i sooo happy☺️❤️
Have fun! Let me know how it is :)
Very nice!🥰
Thank you!
Thank yoooou!
Next time we will go together to some other special places from our paradise: Kastro, Sotiros, Psili Ammos, Porto Vathy, Rachoni, Kallirachi, Fari, Kinira, Pefkari, etc 🙂Congratulations for this documentary ;)
We will definitely make another one :)
WOW - great video - thenk you very much!
I'm happy if it helped! :)
1:19 fine *beaches* ;D
One of the most spectacular things to do on Thassos is to hike up to the mountaintop. Therese a marked path that leads to the highest peak (Ipsarion) which gives you incredible 360 degree views. Every video about Thassos MUST include that!
Thank you for your recommendation!
@@FramingReality you're welcome. The trail starts from Panagia byw.
Yes, I agree with you, I was there, the view is amazing!
Very very good movie and helpful for those who want to discover and explore this unique island! It really helped prepare me and my family and I'm sure that will help others too. Thank you so much!
Glad you liked it!
Great job, Chris! Your work is awesome 👌- this is a master- piece
Alexander, comments like yours are a huge boost for me! Thank you!
@Framing Reality you're more than welcome.
Please check your e-mails soon. 👍
Great job! Also, there is the Chrissi Ammoudia Beach which is the best beach of the island for me. In Limenaria you can find the ''Palataki'' which is a remnant of a german mine company (if I remember accurately). Skala Prinos is also very beautiful. Thank you for your fantastic work!
Thanks for the tips! I think the island deserves another video with the places I missed :)
Great job 🌟🌟🌟
Haha, thank yooou! I'm glad you like the video!
@@FramingReality 🙌💫😄🌟🌟🌟
This is my island
I think this was the best purchase ever!
Sotiros village and Skala Sotiros village are also quite and very beautiful.
Very nice video, about the beaches two omissions Christi Amoudia -Golden beach and Pachis Beach near Skala Pachoni
Best memories
Great guide, lovely video.. Congrats !!!
I'm glad you liked it! Thank you for stepping by :)
lovely and nice guide
Thank you, Marius! I'm glad you enjoy my content :)
Great recording & editing, great documentary! Mesmerizing!!
Multumesc frumos!
@@FramingReality Ce surpriza sa aflu ca esti roman. Sincer nu ma asteptam :)
Buna treaba, ai un canal misto! Mult succes pe mai departe!
@@Simturiascutite ce fain! Iti multumesc pentru comment. E incurajator sa citesc astfel de mesaje :)
@@FramingReality Cu drag. Pai asta e adevarul ;)
Wow! What an excellent and informative video! Beautiful footage and helpful tips! Thank you for sharing 😊 Going back this summer ❤️
Renan, thank you for taking your time to write the comment! I'm glad the video helped you!
Gercekten cok güzeldi👍🏽😍👏
This video goes into far more detail than I ever could - all I can tell you is that I have been to Thasos twice - the last time about 20-22 years ago. And it was idyllic. Seriously, that place is... heaven! From this and other vids, it looks like tourism has hit pretty hard, but... that doesn't change the island. Like the narrator said, no airport. so to GET to Thasos you have to land, get a coach, get a ferry... so... No kids!!!! Excellent place for people who..... well, hate kids!!! Great destination for grown-ups with no children. I plan to go back next year with a certain somebody.
Wow this video is amazing! Will be on Thassos in two weeks and this is the perfect inspiration! :-) Thank you so much for your incredible work.
Jaelle, I'm really happy when I bring value and people express this. Have fun on your trip and let me know how it is and if the island meets your expectation.
next you need to hiking... Ipsario :)
As a person who actually lives in Thassos i agree with this video
Rn in Thasos! It's soo spectacular!!
Yeeey! Enjoy the sun!
An amazing job capturing the beauty of Thassos!
Looking forward to it, going to Thassos in the end of August
Amaziiing! Thassos is a dream! Makes sure you have access to a car so you can explore as much as possible of this island
Thank you! Fantastic Video and rich info !
Glad it was helpful!
❤️ Next Holiday August 2023! See you soon! 🙏
Amazing! Enjoy your stay there!
Amazing!!!
🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷❤🦁
Nice video! You should visit next time the Makryammos beach - white sand, because the marble is nearby, but very fine sand, good food! Great atmosphere!
Great work my friend!
Complete guide! Loved it!
A lot to see and enjoy! 😃
I'm sharpening my skills for Azores :)
@@FramingReality That's great! Looking forward to that! :D
Congratulations for your job!This video is amazing! Exotic Thassos!
James, thank you for your words!
Amazing ♥️
Thank you, dear Katerina! I'm glad you like the video :)
Nice video!I'm from Thassos and I think you should have talked about the night life...there are many nightclubs, a disco called Bolero and there is a whole village called Potos which is basically a giant nightclub every night
Great input! Night life should definitely be somewhere, but this video is subjective and reflects my opinion. I'm not a night life party animal, so I leave this opportunity for another content creator :)
Congrats! The video is great. Thank you! I just came home from Thassos, but I already miss it 💙🌿☀️
I'm glad you have been there before you saw the video. How was the trip for you? Is there any place that you have been there and it's not in the video?
Thank you for a beautifully made video. As a huge fan of Thassos ( I’ve been there many times) I loved your selection. You went to a lot of places in just one week! For running or hiking the trails from Limenas to Makryammos, Marble Beach and Porto Vathy are amazing. Stunning views, shady pine trees and almost no cars. The walk to the acropolis at Limenas with the amphitheatre above the town is also steep but well worth it. My personal favourite beach is Metalia on the edge of Limenaria. I’m guessing you know Limenaria by your drone footage at the beginning of the video. There are ruins of the old zinc mine and some lovely marble sculptures. There is a modern stone circle on a cliff overlooking the bay which is a great place to stop for a picnic and watch the sunset. Unless you enter by he road you have to go down steep steps to reach the beach. It’s not for everyone, being quite rocky and you need sea shoes to swim there as the rocks are slippery in places, but the water is crystal clear and excellent for snorkelling. It never seems to get too crowded. Going East along the coast from there there is a lovely path overlooking the sea which takes you to Pefkari, a couple of miles away which is, a small but pretty beach backed by pine trees and tavernas. (Pefkari can feel a bit crowded though.) Did you know that if you drink the spring water that runs from the fountains in Panangia you will fall in love with Thassos and never want to leave? Every August 15 th in Panagia there is a big festival of the Virgin Mary with a procession from the church, which marks the end of a period of fasting. We listened to the hymns outside the church and then joined the locals walking along with the icon of Mary, which was a really lovely experience. I would like to go up Mount Ipsarion next time I visit Thasos .
Sarah, excellent story! Thank you for sharing your experience here :)
You should visit Skala Sotiros next. One of its unique traits is the church of Prophet Elias, since it lies on top of a prehistoric settlement from the early bronze age. The village of Sotiros is also very beautiful.
Good job on making this video and thank you. Im really proud of my island.
хорошая работа 😊
Dziękujemy za ciekawy film!
My pleasure! Glad you like it and brings value
Super video.Bravooo!
Multumesc mult, Costi! Ma bucur ca iti place!
Great video!
I'm glad you like it! Thanks for your comment!
imma go there in august , cant wait
It'll probably be really hot, but get yourself cold water and enjoy it!
@@FramingReality thanks
visit thassos in june 2013... I live in NZ. Man you can not compare anything with Greece. As an Orthodox, my dream and goal is to visit Athos
Enjoy your journey there! You will definitely love it :)
Very good movie BUT you could arrive on island also via Kavala-Prinos. You miss Ypsarion Peak , Golden Beach and Limenaria. Personach.
Great quality on videography and editing! This place is so beautiful , so diverse and peaceful it’s almost unreal.
But I think you missed one place , worth talking about , that’s the “Metallia Beach” in limenaria in the southern part of the island , where used to be an iron mining factory and the remains are still left there , the scenery is spectacular.
Nevertheless you did a great job!!
Thank you 🙏🏼
Dimitris, thank you for your input! Didn't know about Metallia (I almost read Metallica) beach. I will probably go back to Thassos to cover more, but this in a future video.
@@FramingReality there are plenty of things to discover yet. Even for us the locals!
Have a good one !!
Glyfoneri, San Antionio, Notos, Fari Beach
I think you definetely missed the Hike to Ipsarion Mountain, the sunrise is just magical there and if there are some clouds even in the day it's breathtaking and you can see mostly all around the island.
I was on Thassos a Month ago, I am coming up with a video shortly as well, but it will be mostly a highlight video of natural places on Thassos. It's a pity that I haven't found your video before!
Nice job, great video!
How many day did I take you to record all the videos?
Great video, congratulations! I'm so proud of my beautiful country and I feel so honnored when people like you are making such a good job! Just one thing: the insects that you mention are not crickets, they are cigadas and their life is unimaginable, people have no idea about what is really happening with them. The amazing video "the return of the cigadas" that I accidentally watched this summer will touch you very deeply and will change for ever the way you see these exceptional creatures.. Imagine the consequences to them during a fire in the forest they live....... So devastating....... It's really heartbreaking..
Thank you for your recommendation! You have a good point about cigadas!
The video is so great I want to go there! The funny part I have grown up on thassos and live here permanently 🤣
Probably the best comment so far!
No Limenaria and Metalia Beach in this video? :( I used to love that place when i was younger.
Are there any quiet islands ? They are pretty though .
New to your video , this year I will go there , what beach to like it the most ? From your video I like the number 4
Salut! Depinde mult ce iti doresti. Eu iti recomand Aliki Beach sau Arriba Beach. Sunt mai retrase si au un vibe bun. Le gasesti pe ambele in video.
@@FramingReality deci nu cred ca esti roman :)) , multumesc frumos pentru sfat , abia astept sa vad locurile acelea , chiar par super frumoase
Such a good job! Big thanks from Ukraine!
glad you like it! Thank you for stopping by :)
I live in thassos
Great! Can you maybe give us more tips about the island? For example I am really curious about 3 facts people doesn't know about Thassos.
Thanks :)
@@FramingReality there is restaurant when you go to limenas that is great and it has great food and the sea is so clean near skala prinos is a hotel the name of the hotel is alea 5 star the food is great there behind the hotel is the sea there are so many pools and a gym my dad works there last there is a great camp the name is pitsa camp and u can stay ther for 14 days or 7 days you can do so much activyties the name of the restaurant is pekfospilia
3:53 it is Saliara Beach, Marble beach is 300m farther. I made the same mistake first year I was there.
Foarte frumoasa descriere video !
Mircea, multumesc mult! Ma bucur ca va place :)
...am fost de cateva ori pe insula si acum imi dau seama ca mai am lucruri de descoperit acolo. ;-)
Si pe langa astea mai sunt o gramada :)
Hai aici facebook.com/groups/ForumThassosRomania/ ca sa te informezi mai bine ;) Ca sa stii :D
@@ForumThassosRoForumGrecia sunt deja...si de maine dimineata sunt chiar pe insula :-)))))
As a Greek i must say tha you have created an wonderful video , similar with a video of tv channel. Can you write us which camera an drone did you used ?? Thanks a lot!
Thank you for your appreciation! I'm glad you enjoyed it.
As for gear, I used my Sony a7siii with 16-35 and 28-75 lenses. The drone is a DJI Air 2S. Hope this helps!
@@FramingReality thank you for your fast response!
@@Xanthiotis_Techmaniac my pleasure!
Blana colegutzu !
Why the water is so green Thassos has a beautiful blue water
Could you please share the location from where the trail to the Dragon Cave starts? Thank you!
Thanks for a great video!
BTW title at 13:04 says "No 2" not No 1 )
I'm glad you like it! Also, thank you for pointing out on the mistake!
@@FramingReality you're welcome!
Hey, could you please tell how to get to theologos waterfalls? We are now in Thasos, saw your video and really want to see them but they are not on the map, only the village Theologos
Hey, Jane. Thank you for your comment.
First of all, Theologos waterfall is in Theologos village. To get there, search on google maps: Katarráktes "Kefalogourna Waterfall"
You forgot skala potamia town / beach its the best one in my opinion
You missed the most spectacular village on the island "SOTERAS VILLAGE" .
.
How crowded is crowded? can't move or slightly uncomfortable?
if it's high season, it's a bit too crowded for my taste. Pretty hard to find a parking place near small beaches. Fortunately, the island is pretty big to accommodate many people and, If you are a bit adventurous, you might find a hidden beach with few people.
Who else saw 'THANOS'
Pov: you are from thassos
I'm from Romania :)
Why does this guy tell us he is showing us a "city" only to present us with something that would struggle to be described as a town in an English-speaking country. Greece only has two proper cities.
Excellent video, by the way.
Felicitari! A iesit foarte frumos! Pentru cateva secunde am crezut ca sunt eu cel ce facea snorkeling, impreuna cu sotia mea, la Aliki beach; :D Am luat si eu cateva cadre de pe insula, insa fiind doar un hobby, nu se compara cu ceea ce ai facut tu. th-cam.com/video/u9q0VJByzXk/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=AirsoftAddicted
Ce fain ca ai cadre si din apa :)
@@FramingReality la momentul acela aveam o camera cam slabuță pentru a filma in apa...
Uploaded 2 years ago but you say "2023" in video title! 🤣
Absolutely! And soon 2024. The places are the same for centuries, so the video is still very up to date :)
