The most affordable option. Buses depart from the KTEL Halkidikis bus station in Thessaloniki (68 Karakasi Street, east of the city centre).
| Destination | Duration | Cost | Departures/Day |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kassandra (Kallithea) | 1.5-2 hours | €12-14 | 6-8 in summer |
| Sithonia (Nikiti/Neos Marmaras) | 2-2.5 hours | €13-15 | 4-6 |
| Ouranoupoli | 2.5-3 hours | €14-15 | 3-5 |
Important: KTEL does not stop at SKG airport. You must first reach the city centre (airport bus 01X, €2, 45 minutes) or take a taxi to the KTEL station (€15-20).
The most convenient option, especially from the airport. Your driver meets you at arrivals with a name sign.
Taxis are available at the airport but more expensive than pre-booked transfers.
The ideal choice if you want to explore freely. Agencies at SKG airport include Avis, Hertz, Sixt, Enterprise, and locals (Auto Union, Avance). Rates: €25-50/day depending on season.
Driving tips: Roads are generally good. Gas stations close early in small villages — fill up on the main road. Parking is free almost everywhere except Ouranoupoli centre in peak season.
