The Region in Detail
Your comprehensive travel guide for camping Chalkidiki.
Kassandra vs. Sithonia vs. Athos: Which peninsula is right for you? 🧭
Kassandra is the westernmost peninsula and offers lively holiday resorts with many bars and restaurants. Sithonia, the middle peninsula, is quieter and more natural. Here you will find secluded bays and dense pine forests. Athos, the eastern peninsula, is an autonomous monastic republic and only accessible to men with a special permit.
Flexible on the road: Why you should leave your motorhome behind 🚐
The roads in Halkidiki are often narrow and winding. Especially in the summer months, it can be difficult to drive a large motorhome through the small villages. It's worth parking the motorhome at a campsite and exploring the region by scooter or rental car. Tolls apply on the motorways around Thessaloniki.
The mountain village of Arnea: Halkidiki's hidden gem 💎
Away from the coast, hidden in the mountains, lies the picturesque village of Arnea. Here, time moves slower. Stroll through the cobblestone alleys, admire the traditional houses, and enjoy the peace in the village square. In the small tavernas, you can try authentic Greek specialties – far away from the tourist crowds.
