The shore is sandy, of moderate length, with a shallow bottom and calm water on the sheltered Singitic side. It is partly organized in the summer months — sunbeds and a beach bar along one section — while the ends stay free, with a green backdrop and a relaxed crowd. It works ideally as a midway stop on the Ormos Panagias-Pyrgadikia drive, or as the quieter alternative to Trani Ammouda when the latter fills. Best period: June-September. Mornings the water is usually glass — the best time for a long swim. --- Source: Type: Beach · Halkidiki, Greece
