Around the island - WEST of Thassos

 

PRINOS and Skala Prinos

In the commune of Prinos belong five settlements. The oldest is Kazaviti between the mountains and the newest Dasilio Prinou (Dasilio in Greek means the small forest). Prinos become famous since oil under the bottom of the sea is discovered in late '70's. Main economical activity is agriculture (olive oil, honey and goat cheese) and partly only tourism.


The leading port of the island, Skala Prinos, is connecting Thassos to Kavala. Ferries and flying dolphins bring guests to Thassos. Skala Prinos and new Prinos (Dasilio) are settlements build at the border of the sea, across a beautiful beach covered with pine trees. The settlements have all the kind of facilities, Health Center, Hotels, super market and a camping area.



 

 

Dasilio Prinos
Dasilio Prinou is a green cape with pines and wonderful beaches. Tourism has been developed intensively over the last years and many hotels have been constructed, which cover all the categories and prices. What is important is that the scale of the hotels is fortunately rather small - max. 50 rooms.

Dasilio Prinou is the perfect pace to spend your holidays in the beach and between the pines. Prinos has wonderful, long, sandy beaches and a sea with emerald color. Fortunately in spite of the large number of hotels the beaches are not still crowded, and always you can discover a lot of shells and interesting sea plants along a beach walk.


Kazaviti
Kazaviti is the oldest village of Prinos and is hidden between the forest and the mountains. The buildings of Kazaviti are under protection due to their traditional architecture. The village was abandoned for many decades and it has been re-discovered just at the 80's again. Maybe this is the reason that still keeps its originality. It is a must to visit during your holidays in Thassos.
