Toroni Beach

Toroni has a 2.5 km long sandy beach. It is one of the many beaches of Sithonia awarded with a blue flag, but no matter how crowded Toroni may be, this beach never loses its beauty and you can certainly always find a spot for yourself.

Toroni Beach is a perfect combination of blue sea and an abundance of greenery of pine trees and olive groves from where you can enjoy a beautiful view of the Gulf of Toroneos and the Aegean Sea. There are also many beautiful beaches nearby, and some of them are not crowded even in the peak season.

Crystal clear water and golden sand are especially suitable for families with small children who come here in large numbers. The organized part is with deck chairs and umbrellas in front of the beach bars, but most of it is unorganized and you can find a place where you will be isolated if you want. Along the beach, there are also fields for soccer, beach volleyball, and playgrounds for children.

Note that you can park your vehicle very close to the beach and even enjoy relaxing moments in the tree shade during the hot midday times.

South of Toroni is a small fishing village of Porto Koufo, a cove beach with a couple of beach bars and a couple of shops, also very popular with families with small children.
