Kinira
 Kinira is one of the
most beautiful villages of the eastern part of Thassos. Its name has been
well - known since the ancient times. All the wider area is full of
ancient objects of the Archaic and Roman era. There is lush greenery
because of the springs of the surrounding slopes and is correctly
considered one of the blessed places of the island. Some decades ago, the
permanent residents were only a few, mainly fishermen and stock-farmers,
but during the olive - picking season, called 'maxouli' by the locals, it
was overcrowded. Even nowadays there are a few residents in the village,
but the area is being developed as one of the most touristy places because
it provides beautiful beaches with crystal water.
 There is a small
private island belonging in the Kinira region, called Kiniriotiko, which
is uninhabited and it is full of pine trees, wild olive trees and not much
greenery. The beaches are rocky and steep but the fishermen say that the
sea is one of the richest in fish on the island. The owner's house can
still be seen. The visitors can go to the island by boat as in the old
times but the most visitors are fishermen nowadays. Dolphins have been
recently seen in the sea around the island.
Beautiful Kinira is
famous for its peaceful and magnificent landscape and the beach '
Paradisos', which is one of the best - known beaches in Greece. The coming
to the beach is via a narrow road that passes thro ugh
a small wood. It is not a very long beach but its shallow, cold and wavy
water makes it really exotic. The colour of the sea is light blue and
there are some rocks near the beach which are the favourite place for
nudists. The small wood above the beach used to be ideal for camping and
it used to be full of caravans and tents every summer but free camping is
prohibited now….
