Thasos (Greek: Θάσος) is a town on the island of Thasos in northern Greece. It is the capital and main town of the island. The town is also called Limenas Thasou or for short just Limenas (Greek: Λιμένας Θάσου, "Harbour of Thasos") to distinguish the town from the island on which it is situated. The town is located on the northwest corner of the island, approximately 17 nautical miles (31 km) south of Kavala.

The House of the Dolphins is similarly named from its atrium mosaic, where erotes ride dolphins; its Phoenician owner commissioned a floor mosaic of Tanit in his vestibule
