Potos is the largest tourist resort in the south of the island of Thassos. It is such a good starting point for the whole south of the island, where there are many nice beaches. In Potos itself you will find a long beach that changes from north to south from overcrowded to deserted.

Port in Potos

The pier is also the northern end of the beach in Potos. Boat trips around the island depart from it, which is an experience worth having.

The busiest part of Potos beach

The busiest part of Potos beach is the one right next to the port. There are many rows of parasols here. Those who like peace, cleaner water and nicer views definitely cannot swim here

End of the organized part of the beach

After about 200 meters, the organized part of the beach ends. If you like beach chairs with a parasol and peace at the same time, this end is ideal. In addition, this part of the sunbeds belongs to the bar, where you can use them for any spending at the bar.

View to the south

In the southern direction, it is even quieter even in the peak season. Only in some places it is not good to get into the water – big pebbles

Sunsets in Potos

There are also nice sunsets in Potos even if they are not „perfect“ because the sun does not set in the sea
