Airport Guide
Compare 5 airports near Kavala
For most travelers, Kavala International Airport (KVA) is the clear and most practical choice, as it is the only airport located in Kavala itself and provides the fastest access to the city center. Other airports are located in neighboring cities and require significant ground transport to reach Kavala. Thessaloniki International Airport (SKG) is a major international gateway and a popular alternative, though it is located in the neighboring city of Thessaloniki and requires a ~2-hour drive or bus ride. Alexandroupolis "Dimokritos" Airport (AXD) serves the city of Alexandroupolis and involves a longer transit. Similarly, Plovdiv International Airport (PDV) serves Plovdiv, Bulgaria, and is only recommended if you are already in the region. Lemnos International Airport (LXS) is located on the island of Lemnos, requiring both a local transfer and a ferry to reach Kavala. Prioritize direct routes to Kavala if possible; otherwise, choose Thessaloniki for its frequent international flight connections and reliable bus/highway links.

It was only a one-day stay. Min was friendly and the staff at the front desk took care of my needs very well. I want to come again next time.
The location is also very good. There is a public parking lot opposite, which is also very good for parking.
The facilities are clean.
Breakfast is sweet, but all the food is clean, the staff are friendly, and above all, the view is excellent when you look at the sea.FromUS$62
