Port of Avdira

Tucked into the quietly spectacular coast of Thrace, the Port of Avdira is a small but welcoming marina in Xanthi's Abdera Municipality — far from the crowded island circuits. You're close to the ancient ruins of Abdera, birthplace of Democritus, making it a rare spot where you can drop anchor and step into genuine Greek history. The Port Authority Station on-site keeps things organized, and the surrounding wetlands and beaches of the northern Aegean give the whole place a raw, unhurried feel.
