A few words Eastern Halkidiki is a destination for those taking the road less travelled... For those are trying to discover the unseen... For those who value uniqueness, authenticity and culture... For those who look forward creating holiday memories full of laughter, surprise, admiration, taste and exploration... Because they know that the true luxury in life is creating memories that last a lifetime. With 300 whole kilometres of coastline, more than 100 white sandy beaches, 61 of them classified as premium beaches, 17 blue flags, 7 traditional fishing ports and 3 bays, it is the Mediterranean destination par excellence, ideal (among others) for lovers of luxury holidays. Where is this peninsula located? At the centre of the Macedonian land, in Halkidiki, just 100 kilometres from the Macedonia International Airport of Thessaloniki. What does it offer? Excellent sea and theme routes: in the gulf of Mount Athos, around sandy Ammouliani and Mount Athos and from there to Akanthios Bay with its blue beaches and, finally, to the Strymonikos Bay, around the historic hills of ancient Stagira and the enchanting mussel farms of Olympiada! Want to see them one by one? Turn the page and... let's go!
The message from the Mayor «Highly subjective and constantly evolving, luxury travel is increasingly becoming harder to define, as it continues to adapt to the changes in our society, culture, and technology. For me, the idea of luxury travel is… more about the experience, rather than just the appearance being able to fuel your needs in their entirety, whether physical, emotional, or intellectual an appreciation for the finer things in life tempered with the hidden gems of a destination’s local culture enrichment, authenticity, and exclusivity». This is what the «The Cultureur» https://thecultureur.com/what-isluxury-travel/ says about the definition of luxury tourism.
What is our philosophy? Learn about our destination, visit it and just …Enjoy VIP services! Eastern Halkidiki offers all the above mentioned!
