City in Greece

Kavala

3 things to see

An eastern Macedonian port draped over a headland, defined by its Ottoman aqueduct and the Imaret, a restored Islamic complex overlooking the harbor. Wandering the old town of Panagia up to the castle and strolling the seafront cost nothing, and the city’s distance from the Cyclades circuit keeps prices honest and beaches uncrowded. Ferries to the pine-covered island of Thasos depart daily, and Thessaloniki is an easy bus ride west for a cheap northern Greece pairing.
