Chalkidiki

Chalkidiki

“There is nothing like Halkidiki”, say the people of northern Greece, and they know something. Be ready to be captivated by its three gorgeous peninsulas – Kassandra, Sithonia and Athos.
According to mythology, Halkidiki was the place where a huge battle took place, opposing Zeus and the other Olympian Gods to the Giants, children of Gaea (Mother Earth) and Uranus. Enceladus, the leader of the Giants, was buried alive in Cassandra. Since he sometimes tries to get free from his tomb, he is the source of earthquakes in the whole region. The prong of Kassandra took its name from Cassandros, the king of Macedonia. Sithonia was named after Sithon, the son of the god of the sea, Poseidon, and Mount Athos owes its name to the giant Athos, who threw an enormous rock at Zeus but missed him.

Take a road trip around the Sithonia peninsula and enjoy breathtaking views of small azure coves surrounded by pine trees and secluded beaches. Visit the Athos peninsula, where the only Orthodox monastic republic in the world is located, where no woman has set foot for more than a thousand years. On Kassandra you can experience the cosmopolitan spirit of modern Greece: cafes, beach bars, taverns and open-air nightclubs. The nearest major city is Thessaloniki, the capital of Northern Greece and the pearl of Thermaikos Gulf. Excellent shopping, a promenade along the famous embankment and, of course, museums. In Halkidiki, everyone will definitely find something special and dear to their hearts.
