Latest reviews on Thrace's beaches

Paralia Porto Molo
1 Birsen Kissaoglou

I have never experienced such racism anywhere else, they kicked us out because I was wearing a hate pattern. They will never make any progress with such a way of thinking, where has the democracy gone. One more I don't say they should drown.

Hidden beach
6 Dreya

The water isn't very attractive and has a fishy odor...the sand is definitely not white. It's convenient that there are showers and dressing cabins.

Mesimvria Zoni beach
8 Branimir Yavorsky

The entrance fee is 3 euros per person, which can be a bit of a drawback. Additionally, the visiting hours are limited from 8:30 to 15:30, which can be quite challenging during the scorching summer months as it gets extremely hot, making it nearly impractical to explore the area.

Mandra beach
8 Nadia S.

There should be more seating areas available.

Phoenix beach
10 Marko Petrovic

This place is pretty cool, located at the far end of Amolofi beach. It's clean and offers plenty of space, with always enough sunbeds available. There are a few stones at the entrance, but after a short distance, the water becomes shallow and perfect for children. The service is good, although the prices for drinks and food are a bit on the expensive side (5.5 euros for coffee and water, 5 euros for ice cream, and 15 euros for pizza). The only downside is that there are no tables to eat at, only under the sunbeds, which isn't ideal. However, there's a cool tavern just behind the parking area. Additionally, there is plenty of free parking available.

Vrasidas beach
10 Jayce

This location boasts crystal clear and tranquil azure waters, with a gently sloping fine sand beach that is perfect for families with children. Although there is only one rustic shack providing services, this actually adds to the charm of the beach and prevents it from being overrun by noisy tourists. The only downside is that the dirt road leading to the beach may prove challenging for low-riding vehicles, but SUVs should have no trouble accessing this hidden gem.

Please note that lifeguards supervise 75 beaches in the region, but you should rely on more than just them, remember the elementary rules, as lifeguards are not on duty around the clock, even on equipped beaches!
