Shopping Guide in Thassos

What to Buy

Thassos is renowned for its pine and thyme honey, sold directly by producers in mountain villages like Panagia and Potamia — look for jars without commercial labels for the most authentic (and often cheapest) product. Thassos olive oil, made from a distinct local olive variety, is another prized export, along with small-batch ouzo and tsipouro.

Marble items — small sculptures, bowls, and jewelry — are sold in Limenas, referencing the island's quarrying history. Local honey-based sweets, sun-dried figs, and jars of preserved olives make easy, packable souvenirs. Prices are fixed at most shops; bargaining is uncommon.
