Hot sunshine, fabulous beaches, secluded coves, shimmering blue seas and friendly tavernas – you can enjoy all this and more in the unspoilt Greek resort of Halkidiki. Halkidiki consists of three peninsulas - Kassandra, Sithonia and Mount Athos - extending out from northern Greece into the Aegean Sea. The Kassandra peninsula, with its sandy beaches washed by calm, shallow waters, is home to the town of Hanioti and the resorts of Kalithea, Sani and Pefkohori. The central ‘prong’ is Sithonia with its wilder appearance covered in pine forests, a rugged landscape and secluded sandy bays, making perfect terrain for hikers and bikers. Its resorts include beach hotspots of Agios Ioannis and Spathies. The Mount Athos peninsula, with its southern part out of bounds to the public as it is male-only ‘monks republic’, is home to the towns of Olympiada and Ouranoupolis. Discover Polygyros, Halkidiki’s capital city, with its fascinating archaeological museum and the maze of streets in the old town. The cosmopolitan city of Thessaloniki, only 100kms away from Halkidiki, has museums, cultural sites, shops, restaurants and bars to enjoy. If you’re looking for a quiet family holiday or a romantic break for two, then Halkidiki is the ideal choice.
