Thassos port is located in Limenas, the island's capital, with shops and tavernas within walking distance. From the port it's about 18 km to Alyki with its ancient marble quarries and crystal-clear waters, and 25 km to the picturesque village of Theologos in the island's interior. Book your rental car in advance during July–August when Thassos is fully booked and availability is limited.

Choose a car with good ground clearance if you plan to visit the mountain village of Kastro via winding gravel roads. Refuel in Limenas – gas stations are sparse around the island. Can I pick up the rental car directly when the ferry arrives at Thassos port?

Yes, most rental companies in Limenas offer pickup near the port, but contact them in advance for the exact meeting point as offices may be 5–10 minutes' walk away.

Can I take the rental car on the ferry back to Kavala? It depends on the rental contract – most local rental companies do not allow the car to be taken on the ferry. Check the terms carefully when booking.
