Highlights of Kassandra

If it’s good enough for a king…! One of Alexander the Great’s generals - Cassander, wrestled for control and succeeded him to become king of Macedonia. It was here, the Kassandra peninsula, where he wanted to build his capital. Let’s find out why Kassandra is worth dying for…

Kassandra comes to life

While Halkidiki’s attraction is its superb beaches, no matter how inviting weeks of relaxation may sound to you, even the dullest bloke wants a little action. This is where Kassandra balances things out. You want your morning coffee and Greek spanakopita on the balcony with the scent of fresh pine permeating the air? You can get that here! You want to walk a few meters from your hotel to a picture perfect bleached sand beach, throw your towel on a sunbed as you watch the stunning shades blue and green crystal water dazzle your eyes and calm you to sleep? You got that too! But in Kassandra when the sun goes down, the stars come out. Villages like Pefkohori will keep you entertained.

Luxurious and Sunny Sani Resort

What Cassander couldn’t do, the people at Sani have succeeded. This 5 star resort is really fit for a king. When people Google “Halkidiki”, probably half are Googling for the famed Sani Resort. A 1000 acres of pure paradise built into a holiday destination to suit anybody’s needs. Four different hotels will cater to families or couples looking for that romantic getaway. Let Sani shower you with its credentials… 7 kilometers of soft sand beach, gourmet restaurants and a marina to boot.

Agia Paraskevi thermal spa

Want adventure? Hang out on the wild side of Kassandra. What could be more cool than soaking in an outdoor mineral pool with a cliff top view over the Aegean. Pamper yourself with a morning of treatments and sweat it out in the hamman and sauna. Explore the area by descending down the steep stairway to the coastal rocks, here you can some of the water sources in the small caves. After, just lounge away your afternoon on the beach below the spa center a the bottom of the cliffs. Oh, and don’t forget to bring a towel.

What we like about Kassandra

Sit at the Notos all day cafe bar with sensational seaside views in quaint Afitos with its stone houses and cobbledstone streets. Party all day on Glarokavos beach in Pefkochori. Spend a day at the tranquil Possidi beach in south Kassandra. Take a group of friends and feel like a captain as you enjoy a glass of wine on the deck of a luxury sailboat that you chartered for the day.
