Discover Halkidiki,
Beyond the Beaches
Clear-water coves, pine-fringed coastlines, traditional villages, local food and practical guides to Kassandra, Sithonia and the Athos Peninsula.
Welcome to Halkidiki
Halkidiki is one of Northern Greece’s main summer destinations, extending south of Thessaloniki across the three peninsulas of Kassandra, Sithonia and Mount Athos. The region includes busy resort towns, long sandy beaches, quieter coves, traditional villages and a coastline that changes considerably from one peninsula to another. Choosing where to stay is therefore one of the most important decisions when planning a Halkidiki holiday.
This Halkidiki travel guide brings together our advice on the best beaches, villages, places to stay, restaurants, road trips and day trips, as well as practical comparisons between Kassandra and Sithonia. Whether you are planning a beach holiday, travelling with a car or combining Halkidiki with Thessaloniki, our guides are designed to help you choose the right area and avoid spending unnecessary time driving between distant parts of the region.
