Visiting Sithonia—the Caribbean Gem of Greece

 

After another long winter of international turbulence, wars, and pandemic, summer came, and along with it, our chance to visit a secret gem in Northern Greece and one of our favorite destinations—Sithonia, Halkidiki.

The peninsula of Halkidiki—130km from Thessaloniki and the nearest international airport—has three legs: Kassandra to the west, Sithonia in the middle, and Mount Athos to the east. With almost 100 beaches with Caribbean white sand and turquoise blue sea, magical forests, and hidden coves, wild and beautiful Sithonia is known as the “Caribbean gem of Greece”.

This jewel of Northern Greece is the favorite destination of not only Greeks but people around the world. How can someone resist the serene beauty, the dense forests, the hospitality of the locals, and the breathtaking beaches with perfect white sand and some of the clearest waters in the world?

This vacation is a dream come true!

Let me share some photos to show you what makes our hearts melt whenever we think of Sithonia, Halkidiki.
