basilica have survived here. This was a site of ancient gold
mines and the harbour from where the white marble of thassos was
exported all over the mediterranean. Pirates slaughtered many
Christians here. Clear and shallow water, ideal for lonely
swimming or fishing. A resort away from the tourist areas, where
you can relax. In the winter there are just some people living
there. |
