The town is also called Limenas Thasou or for short just Limenas (Greek: Λιμένας Θάσου, Liménas Thásou, "Harbour of Thasos") to distinguish the town from the island on which it is situated.

The town is located on the northeast corner of the island, approximately 17 nautical miles (31 km) south of Kavala.

Most of the finds from local archaeological sites are on display at the Archaeological Museum of Thasos in Thasos town.
