Golden Beach is one of the most popular beaches in the whole of Thassos and it is little wonder why. It is 3km long, has soft fine sands and plenty of water sports on offer. The resort is located just 10km from the capital meaning a day or evening trip there is always on the cards. There is plenty of entertainment in and around Golden Beach which makes it the perfect travel destination for families, couples and everyone in between!
Budget holidays to Golden Beach are very popular and the resort can be reached from most regional airports in the UK. Thassos doesn’t have an airport of its own, so you will need to fly to Kavala International Airport. From there, the transfer is around an hour and 45 minutes. Make sure you check the CheekyTrip comparison site for more great deals to some of the best Greek island beach resorts like this one. Direct flights to Kavala tend to be around 3 and a half hours long, meaning a morning flight can set you up nicely for the rest of the day!
The best time to visit this resort is definitely the summer period as there isn’t as much to do when the temperatures start to cool down in the winter months. Temperatures usually reach the high 20s throughout the summer months whilst the period between autumn to spring drops to the low teens. Because Golden Beach is entirely a beach resort with plenty of nature and sunshine to enjoy when the weather is good, we definitely recommend you skip the winter months and stick to the buzzing summer period.
As well as its golden soft sands, Golden Beach has a shallow entrance to the sea making it the ideal access point for smaller children and non-swimmers. During the summer, the beach is always full of exciting activities that include people playing football, people at the beach volleyball court and people queuing up at one of the many water sports vendors along the beach. There are plenty of tavernas that line the coastline here, many of which play music and rent out sun beds, loungers and parasols.
Golden Beach has a very good selection of accommodation options to choose from. Most of the best places are situated just off from the beach, meaning back and forward to and from the beach is easily done. Most of these places are standard-quality hotels but there are also luxurious options, villas and apartments for you to have a look at. The tavernas on the beach are some of the best places to get a bite to eat or have a drink. There are some amazing restaurants set-back along the main road to the beach as well.
