Non-residents may be allowed to travel to the islands as early as May 18 if the coronavirus cases remain low and stable.
On 15 May, Greece's top epidemiologist will assess the situation and announce the next steps. Fingers crossed!!
Yes, there is hope so let's hang in there together!
Today, flights resumed between Germany and Greece (Frankfurt - Athens only, for now) because new cases in both countries have dropped significantly. If we continue to do well then your flight in August should be safe!
PS. In the last 24 hours, Greece only had 2 new confirmed cases in the entire country.
Taking a covid-19 test will not be required to enter Greece
The Greek government and health ministry have made the decision that testing will not be a requirement for people who want to travel to Greece. Instead, everyone will be required to complete a covid-19 questionnaire before entering the country by air, land, or sea.
This week, we're expecting official government announcements on border openings, timelines, rules, restrictions, etc. for Summer 2020. We are already working on a page where we will consolidate all of the important information for you to find in one place. I'll let you know when it's ready!
I'm so sorry, Ukraine is not on the list of 29 countries that can enter Greece starting June 15 without the mandatory quarantine measures.
However, the list will be updated in the next 2 weeks for tourism starting July 1 and Ukraine might be on that list! *fingers crossed*
If you have a reservation for the end of June, I highly recommend contacting your host and requesting a date change to July or later, a time that suits you best.
The situation is improving every day in almost every country, including Ukraine, so we remain hopeful and optimistic that you will be able to come soon!
Gregory is right, you will be able to travel to Greece starting 15 June. If you try coming on the 14th I'm afraid you won't be allowed in, so I suggest changing your arrival date to 15 June instead.
You can find the Thassos Ferry Schedules here: https://www.go-thassos.gr/thassos-ferry-schedules-prices
Eu iti sugerez ca daca pleci din Romania in 14, fa o escala in Bulgaria la Happy Ring ( nu o sa-ti para rau, costa 20 euro/noapte) si a doua zi pleci pe la 9 si ajungi la feribot la pranz.
Thanks a lot in advance!
That's a great question!
If you visit an unorganized beach (eg. one that doesn't have sunbeds and umbrellas), it is advised that you practice social distancing in a responsible way. This means if you arrive at a beach and find it busy, choose a section with fewer people or continue along the coast and check if the next beach has more free space... we've got so many amazing beaches on Thassos to choose from so don't you worry about not finding a beach with space. Keep a minimum distance of 2 meters from others, don't gather in groups larger than 10 people, and all will be well in the eyes of the local authorities.
From Romanian border until Keramoti we have a 7-8 hours journey. Many drivers preffer to cross Bulgaria at night and arrive at the ferry in the morning. I will do the same. Start traveling on 14 and arrive at the ferry 15 in the mirning. When is the first ferry? At what hour?
@Adela
When do you plan to cross the border to BG? Do we travel at the same hours?
The first ferry from Keramoti to Thassos will depart at 5:00 AM
Are you going to Skala Potamia or Golden Beach resort?
I have a photo that I was planning to deliver to Vangelis the owner at Flivos at Skala Potamia this month of a vehicle he owned 17 years ago.
Unfortunately UK residents are not allowed entry and my holiday has been cancelled. If you do attend can you obtain up to date email so I can send the photo or tell him to look at this site.

Yes. I go to Golden Beach every year. I don’t feel the need to change the place. 🙂
I can go there and ask about the email address and show the photo. Especially because we talk about such a beautiful car. (Please pm me with more details about the car. Let’s not bother everyone with passion for cars. 😁
Please tell me if is flivos or flisvos.
Take a look at the photo. Is this the place?
I see the photo is posted on google by Vangelis. Is this the right Vanghelis?
We plan to come from Romania in beginning of August, and we are wondering what are the procedures if we get infected on the island or if some guest staying at our hotel gets infected. Are there quarantine hotels, will the entire hotel be under quarantine, are we allowed to leave or get stranded on the island for 2 additional weeks, who is paying these additional costs outside our control? Can one of the administrators elaborate of that are the local rules and regulations? We would like to come, but we want to asses what will happen if on the 2nd day of our stay a guest is found positive and we might find ourselves in some strange situation when we need to stay with the kids in a room no in or out for an extended period of time. Thank you!
Status at the border in Makaza is very unplesant.
Greek border says we can enter greek territory only after 12.00 pm.
So not at midnight.
I hope the situation will change and I can come with another status.
