Kalamitsi
Kalamitsi is a small and still not-so-popular summer resort almost at the very south of the Sithonia peninsula. It is about 150 km from Thessaloniki and about 15 km from its closest larger neighbor Sarti, where you can find a doctor’s office, pharmacies, and bigger grocery stores. Its development started not more than 30 years ago so it is very modern and not very big. That means that it is still very peaceful and relatively quiet, ideal for a really relaxing holiday.
Besides swimming, sunbathing, and sipping a cold drink on a warm, jazzy, summer afternoon, you can try some water sports, diving, and snorkeling. Of course, there are beach bars, gyros places, and taverns for your refreshment.
Most of the few accommodation facilities are located very close to the beach.
Kalamits is open to the sea, so it can sometimes be wavy but it could exactly be its advantage. There is also a gentle breeze almost all the time so it never seems too hot. The most special feature is its sandy beach – extremely nicely organized, as well as the entire resort. The beach is long, the sand is pearly white and soft and the water is crystal clear.
Kalamitsi is the perfect destination for those looking to escape the crowds of everyday life. Situated in the very south of Sithonia, this small and tranquil spot is home to a stunning beach. Visitors can enjoy a range of activities such as water sports, beach volleyball, and beach bars, all within close proximity to their accommodation. The shoreline gradually slopes into the sea, with a long shallow, making it ideal for families with young kids. This beach is among the most beautiful of the entire Halkidiki, and for those looking to enjoy some nightlife, the nearby towns of Sarti and Toroni are the perfect places to go.
Some visitors even say that it is the most beautiful beach in Sithonia (and we all know there is strong competition here).
Very close to the beach, there is a small island to which tourists often swim and climb to enjoy the view of Kalamitsi.
Also, there is a nudist beach in a nearby bay.
The only thing that some guests might find missing is the absence of a traditional promenade along the beach – there is no sidewalk here.
Population: About 150 permanent residents.
