The Chalkidiki region features three peninsulas, Kassandra, the most touristic one, Sithonia, known for its numerous coves, and Mount Athos, an autonomous religious state, dotted with Orthodox monasteries, where entry is prohibited for women. Our base is located in Nikiti between the peninsulas of Kassandra and Sithonia. At a distance of 90 km from Thessaloniki, this small resort is home to many shops and restaurants and has a very long sandy beach.
Entirely covered with pine forests, the peninsula of Sithonia is less touristy than Kassandra. Starting from Nikiti, it offers beautiful white sand beaches with turquoise seas and little coves ideal for anchoring. At its extremity, the small
fishing port of Porto Koufo is one of the most sheltered in the Aegean Sea. On the east side, the island of Diaporos and many wild islets are a favorite destination for swimming. The island of Amouliani, near Mount Athos, is also worth visiting, and especially the beach of Alikes.
