It has been awarded a Blue Flag. The shore is sandy with a shallow seabed, suitable for children, and is partly organised with sunbeds and beach bars, with free sections as well. It's not the best choice for snorkelling, as the bottom is mostly sand. The village has everything you need: pharmacies, ATMs, supermarkets, tavernas and cafés. The beach faces west, towards Kassandra, so it has sun in the afternoon until sunset. If you'd like somewhere quieter, south of the village are Mikro Kastri, about a kilometre and a half away, Kastri and Agios Ioannis — all smaller sandy beaches with pines. Nikiti's old settlement, with its stone houses, is a few minutes away and worth an evening stroll. --- Source: Type: Beach · Halkidiki, Greece
