Europe : Greece : Western Thrace : Alexandropolis

There are several trains from Thessaloniki. Slow trains take 6h (9€), fast ICs take only 4 1/2 (16€)
[edit] By ferry
Ferries to Samothrace leave mostly twice a day - but irregularly. There is a fast one (1 h /17,7€) and a slow one also for cars (3h/8,8 for a single person). Tickets have to be bought in a travel agency near the port.

There are no cheap youth hostels, but a couple of mid-range hotels by the seaside. Backpackers often just stay at the beach near the train station.
