Pefkari Resort

Despite belonging to the smallest villages on the whole island, this doesn´t drain it of its popularity and crowds of tourists. On the small space on the south-west coast, it can offer them plenty of fun and seaside activities in an environment surrounded by tall pine trees and more vivid greenery. Today it is hard to believe that only fishermen with their daily catches used to walk through there.

Udring the day, Pefkari is an oasis of peace, with most people relaxing on the beach, far from the bustle of big cities. All gourmets can visit some of the renowned restaurants, tavernas and bars with long opening time. If you are a fan of loud music and fun till the dawn, then set off to the island interior where you will find the biggest open-air disco on Thassos.

If you don´t enjoy too much this kind of entertainment, continue further to the mountains that are perfect for hiking. You will be rewarded by beautiful natural sceneries and views on the landscape.

Those of you who like to know the beauties of the island from the sea surface can rent a motorboat in Pefkari.

Pefkari beach

The local beach is formed by a several hundreds of metres lond stretch of sand with little stones and pebbles here and there, sumberging into crystal clear turquoise waters and covering the seabed, too. Yet it takes a while before you get to the depth, and so, bathing there is recommended to children and less experienced swimmers. For detailed information on the beach, see the link. In Pefkari you can relax in many different ways - or you can idle on a deckchair under an umbrellas, or rollick in the waves and practice water sports. The specialized rental service will help you with the right activity for you, including water skiing, riding a boat, a paddle boat or a banana boat, surfing, paragliding or beach volleyball. If you walk through a nice pine grove, you will get to another beach nearby.
