Thassos webcam online island in the Northern part of the Aegean sea

Thasosor Thassos (Greek Θάσος) is a Greek island in the Northern part of the Aegean sea, located off the coast of Thrace on the plain of the river Nestos but geographically partially bordered by Macedonia. It is the northernmost Greek island, occupying 12-e a place in the area. Thasos is also the name of the largest city on the island (also known as Limenas Thasou, "Harbour of Thasos"), situated on the Northern side of the island, opposite the mainland and about 10 kilometres from Keramoti. Located off the coast of Eastern Macedonia, Thasos was inhabited since the Paleolithic era. During the occupation (1941-1944) Thasos, along with the rest of Eastern territories of Macedonia and Thrace came under Bulgarian control. The Bulgarian government has renamed the island "Tasos" and closed all the Greek schools as the first step on the road to forced nationalisierung. The mountainous landscape of the island contributed to the small resistance of seismic activity. With the end of the war and the withdrawal of the Bulgarian troops, the island returned during the civil warGreece. Skirmishes and attacks by the Communist guerrilla armies continued on the island of Thassos until the end of 1950. Almost a year later, the main fighting was stopped on the mainland. Thassos, Greece is now the capital, the city has also a port known as Limenas.
