Halkidiki is a large mainland region of northern Greece, which is famous for its shape, as it has three peninsulas or ‘legs’ as they are better known. From west to east they are Kassandra, Sithonia and Athos. They used to be called ‘popular’ Kassandra, ‘peaceful’ Sithonia and ‘spiritual’ Athos, but they have all changed so much in recent years, they all offer a bit of everything.
The great thing about this region is that due to its geographical lay-out there is the main body of land and then the 3 legs, but they all have different terrains and atmospheres. It is sometimes said to be a ’mainland’ and 3 Islands, but actually they are all connected, especially through a system of excellent roads. Therefore, it is very popular for Fly-Drive Holidays and visitors from the rest of mainland Europe. (and closest to Thessaloniki, which is the 2nd biggest city in Greece and has a major International Airport
Sithonia is the ‘second or middle leg’ of the three and is known for relaxation and having a laid-back life-style and touch-of-class to many of its venues and destinations. It is also popular for its Marinas and Harbors, which there are many throughout the peninsula. They are popular for all kinds of visitors, not just the sailing fraternity. The atmosphere, sites, sounds and smells around these harbors are quite absorbing, with all the bars, restaurants, shops and sea views. If visitors want to actually get out onto the water, there are many different types of trips; Fishing, Dolphin Watching, Swimming, Sunset Cruises, Mount Athos etc. Of course, for real seafarers, they can moor their own yacht, charter one to self-crewing or have an experienced crew do it for them.

The activities visitors get involved include; getting up close and personal with all the animals, helping tend to the ‘bee hives’, finding the ‘queen bee’ and collecting the honey. Plus, a tour of the Olive Plantation and seeing how the whole process works.

This ‘earth to table’ experience is excellent, but when the warmth, friendship and hospitality of the hosts is added, it makes it a real memory that will last a lifetime.

The prime ambition is to help the guests experience, explore and engage with authentic Greece. Epiculiar local hosts take visitors by the hand to share what the real Greek ‘philoxenia’ means.
