Photo and description

Sotiros is a picturesque mountain village in the western part of the Greek island of Thassos. The settlement is located about 20 km southwest of the administrative center of the island of Thassos (Limenas) on the western slope of Mount Ipsario at an altitude of 350 m above sea level and offers its guests breathtaking panoramic views, fantastic landscapes and clean healthy air. This is an ideal place for people with respiratory problems.

Sotiros is a traditional Greek village with labyrinths of narrow cobbled streets, surrounded by green pretty little houses covered with red tiles and cozy taverns and cafes, where you can enjoy in the shade of spreading plane trees local cuisine and the famous Greek ouzo. The main town square is decorated with an old church and a marble fountain, dating back to the end of the 19th century.

Sotiros is a settlement with its own special unique flavor, unhurried rhythm of life and, of course, the atmosphere of cordiality and hospitality of local residents and is perfect for those who want to relax away from the unnecessary fuss, which is so typical for many coastal resorts.

However, if you cannot imagine your vacation without a traditional beach holiday, just a few kilometers from Sotiros is the small resort town of Skala Sotiros with a magnificent beach, which is rightfully considered one of the best on the island and a lot of entertainment. The main attractions of the Rock of Sotiros are fragments of a prehistoric settlement and ruins of Roman baths, as well as the oldest olive press on the island of Thassos.
