Beach of Golden Sand

The Beach of Golden Sand is a popular destination located in Thassos. It is renowned for its fine, hourglass-like sand, which is wide and free from stones. The beach is particularly noted for its left side, which many consider to be the most beautiful part. The beach is surrounded by numerous restaurants and taverns, offering a variety of dining options for visitors.

The natural characteristics of the beach are also a major draw. The water is crystal clear and the beach is perfectly sandy. The sea remains shallow for about 100 meters, making it a safe choice for families with children. The water is warm and clean, adding to the overall appeal of the location.

The Beach of Golden Sand offers a range of amenities, including unlimited sunbeds and a drinks service. To avail of the sunbeds and umbrella, visitors are required to order a minimum amount of drinks from the beach bars. The bars also provide good service and are known for their friendly staff.

Despite its popularity, the beach can get crowded, especially during peak hours. However, the crowd does not detract from the overall experience, as the beach is large enough to accommodate a large number of visitors. One thing to note is that the sun sets behind the mountains 1.5 to 2 hours earlier than on other parts of the island, which may shorten the beach hours for some visitors.
