Beaches and a bubbly vibe
Kassandra takes you to a small peninsula on the south east coast of mainland Greece. It’s a little town with a vibrant energy, lively bars, restaurants and clubs and a host of beautiful beaches with crystal clear waters. Surrounded by pine clad hills and luscious farmland, it’s perfect for those wanting to explore by mountain bike or on foot as well.
Families and couples will find something for them in Kassandra. The beach has soft golden sands which gently shelve into the warm sea, making it perfect for little paddlers. Watersports are available for the more active, and include jet skiing, scuba diving, and even banana boat rides. If you prefer to simply relax and take it easy there are sun loungers and cool beach bars where you can spend the day ordering snacks and refreshments straight to your towel, or relax as you listen to chilled music.
Holidays in Kassandra bring you cool beach bars, excellent local restaurants, and a chance to admire the natural beauty of Halkidiki on mainland Greece. Surrounding farmlands provide the town with an excellent range of local produce, including fresh olives, wines, seafood, and more. There are plenty of opportunities to explore, with the little fishing village of Nea Fokaia just minutes away and the quiet beachy cove of Afitos within easy reach by car.
