Location
About the surrounding area of Villa LagomandraHugely popular with visitors, Halkidiki is divided into three peninsulas – Kassandra, Sithonia and Athos – which jut out into the Aegean Sea. With verdant countryside, tempting sandy beaches and an array of historic sights, there’s quite a bit to see around the region, which is easily accessible from Thessaloniki Airport, situated to the north west.
Of the three peninsulas, Kassandra is the most developed for tourism, with plenty of resorts, while Sithonia is quieter and good for nature lovers. Mount Athos is home to an area of 20 monasteries which is complicated to visit (and, indeed, women are not allowed to), but you may like to take a cruise to view it from a distance.
Certainly an impressive sight, you can sail from the resort of Ouranoupolis, to the north of Mount Athos, where you will also find the 14th-century Prosforio Tower. This Byzantine structure was apparently built by monks from Athos to defend the area from invasion. Well preserved, and subject to many renovations over the years, it’s a significant local landmark.
Another popular attraction is the impressive Petrolena Cave with its impressive stalactites and stalagmites. You may also wish to visit Petrolena’s Anthropological Museum, where findings from the cave are on display.
Lovers of archaeology can visit sites such as Olynthos. Located north east of the village which shares its name, this site dates back to the 7th century, and more recent excavations have uncovered some the oldest known mosaic floors in all of Greece. Artefacts from this site can also be found at a local museum in the village. This is just one of many archaeological sites found around the Halkidiki peninsulas, with the remains of ancient cities such as Acanthus and Stagira also well worth a visit.
You can appreciate the area’s natural beauty at the Lake of Polychrono, on the western side of Kassandra. One attraction of this pretty nature reserve is the chance to see the Testudinata turtles. You will also find a sandy beach there.
In the village of Stagira you can visit a park dedicated to philosopher Aristotle, as this was his birthplace. Aristotle Park also contains an array of instruments, such as a solar clock and water turbine which demonstrate the power of nature.
The region as a whole offers a wide array of places to eat and drink, with village tavernas and beach bars commonplace, alongside high-end restaurants. You can get to know more about the area’s wine production by taking a winery tour. For a taste of local culture, there are also several annual festivals, with summer’s Sani Festival and Kassandra Festival among those covering art, music and theatre.

Getting There
How to reach Halkidiki
The nearest airport is the International Airport of Thessaloniki. This is about 16km from Thessaloniki. From this region of Thermi you can get to Halkidiki by bus or Taxi. There are several domestic flights that run from Athens Airport to the airport in Thessaloniki too.
Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesYou will find plenty to keep kids entertained around Halkidiki. Of course, the area is full of lovely beaches they are sure to enjoy. With the Sithonia peninsula a little less busy and developed than its neighbour Kassandra, you can find all sorts of peaceful coves along its coast. You could check out the beaches of Neos Marmaras, Kalamitsi, Karidi or Porto Koufo, all of which are very pretty.
A big favourite with inquisitive kids, Aristotle Park is a great place for a day out. A lovely park to relax in, with sea views and a restaurant, it also features lots of scientific instruments that children can play with and learn from. Among them are telescopes, prisms, a sun clock and a parabolic reflector – and if you want to see what that can do, you’ll just have to visit. You can combine your visit to the park with seeing the ruins of Ancient Stagira, where Aristotle was born – these are about 5 minutes from the park.
If you venture into Thessaloniki, you will find several museums, and Noesis is one for the whole family. If they liked Aristotle Park, they are sure to love this place – as Greece’s main science and technology museum, it covers everything from electronics and magnetism to the history of motoring. There is also a planetarium and motion simulator. Another museum of note in the city is the Museum of Byzantine Culture, which offers an educational introduction to Greek history.
You will find one of Europe’s biggest water parks at Waterland, where there are slides, a wave pool, crazy river and a zoo – it’s located to the south of Thessaloniki. Not too far away, there is also a go-karting centre, while Magic Park offers all sorts of fairground rides. With a ferris wheel, bumper cars and much more, there’s a lot to enjoy here. As the second-biggest city in Greece, Thessaloniki also has lots of options when it comes to shopping and dining, as well as some interesting monuments and landmarks.
One thing not to miss if you’re travelling with kids is the Petrolena Cave – it’s quite an experience to wander the caverns and see the amazing stalactite and stalagmite formations. Sithonia also hosts another interesting ancient site at Parthenonas – you will find this protected village on the slopes of Mount Itamos, and it offers some lovely views.
