About Salonikios

Salonikios is a pebble beach on Thasos, facing west. Land shelters it from winds from the north-east, the east, the south-east, and the south, so those winds leave the water flat here. Winds from the west arrive over open sea and raise waves when they are strong. It looks west over open sea, so the sun sets into the water. A dirt track leads to the beach. Nothing to eat or drink is mapped within 300 m, so bring water and shade. The sea is warmest in August, at about 26 °C. It is above 22 °C from June to September.

Written from map data (OpenStreetMap contributors), our own measurement of the open sea around the beach and NOAA sea temperatures (1991-2020 averages).

When is it busy?
