Thanos Beach
Παραλία Θάνους
A crescent-shaped beach framed by volcanic rock cliffs, with bright, clear blue water. It is often rated one of the most beautiful beaches on Lemnos.
Thanos Beach lies east of Platy. A stretch of golden sand is bounded at each end by reddish-brown volcanic headlands. The water is clear, making it good for snorkeling. The eastern end of the beach is quieter, while the western end has umbrellas and restaurants. The village of Thanos above the beach keeps its traditional stone houses, and you can stop by the Kakaviotissa cave chapel nearby. It is about 5 km from Myrina, reachable by car or taxi.
