Thassos is a Greek island characterized by the intense presence of greenery, with endless beauties waiting for the visitor to discover them.
One of them is without a doubt Giola, the famous natural pool of the island, a miracle of nature or as the inhabitants of Thassos say, a gift.
And they are not wrong. This natural swimming pool is located inside a rock, near Astrida, on the south-eastern side of the island, and swimming there is sure to be unforgettable. The transparent turquoise waters, a breath of the deep blue of the sea is a scene that excites the visitors that there is no way to be in Thassos and not pass by Giola.
It was formed over the centuries by the waves of the sea and the rocks that surround it. Its waters are warmer than those of the sea and are about three meters deep. The pool is also called “Tear of Venus”. According to legend, it was created by Zeus for Aphrodite to swim in, while another legend says that it was the eye of Zeus, to watch over her.
