    Yes, want to get away from everyday problems and noise on the island, such as Thasos. Lie on the white sand and not think about nothing. All the more so, that apart from the beach there is something to see, for example Monastery, Church.

      Well, just on the beach to lie to me personally a little (Although there are very soft sand), but the sights there need to see with their own eyes. By the way, when other beaches windy and the waves, there is always silence.
