Reports regarding tourism in Greece highlight the high costs associated with summer beach amenities. In various regions, including Chalkidiki, Crete, Naxos, and Mykonos, sun-lounger fees vary significantly, with premium first-row spots reaching €120 per person or even thousands of euros in Mykonos.

In Thassos, specific consumer experiences show that daily expenses for a family can be driven by food and beverage consumption at beach bars. One instance noted a total of 81 euros for a group of six, which exceeded the minimum consumption required to avoid separate sunbed rental fees.
