Holidays in Golden Beach

An introduction to Golden Beach

It's all in the name … Holidays in Golden Beach are holidays in sun-soaking heaven. A fabulous place for families and couples who just want to bliss-out by the sea, this is arguably the best beach on the island. And it's a natural playground for activities under the sun.

Golden Beach holidays have all the ingredients for kids to build castles, and for grown-ups to get active with a wealth of watersports – so you can potter about on a pedalo, go sailing or windsurfing, get the adrenalin going with paragliding, or just wander along the water's edge and enjoy the sports as a spectator.

At the northern end of a big bay, the village of Chryssi Ammoudia (that's Golden Beach in Greek) is set back from the sea on a pine cloaked hillside. Along the main road running through the village, there's a clutch of tavernas, a handful of bars and a mini-market … and that's about it. But while summer holidays to Golden Beach are quietly secluded, they're not isolated. Water taxis soon whisk you round the tip of the island to Thassos Town – for shopping, sightseeing, nightlife and eateries.

And back in your sun-sea-and-sand base, self-catering holidays in Golden Beach include the pretty Aphroditi Studios and Marina Apartments – each just a couple of minutes from the sea, while the hilltop Hotel Dionysos offers peace, panoramas and a pool. Look for last minute holidays to Golden Beach … Just pack your paperbacks, your flip-flops and a change of sunglasses …

Thassos is so relaxing. Dont go there for discos, late night drinking, loud music etc. Go there for stress free relaxation, rural lifestyle, timetables accurate to within half an hour each way, beautiful locals who think everyone is their friend.... more on this review
