Nea Triglia

Nea Triglia is a town in mainland Halkidiki, near the entrance to Kassandra and a short distance from Thessaloniki. It was founded by refugees from Triglia in Asia Minor after 1922, which has deeply shaped its character, traditions and cuisine.

The village of wine

Nea Triglia is widely known for its vineyards and wine — viticulture and winemaking are deeply rooted in its Asia Minor heritage, with local wineries worth visiting. The village preserves refugee traditions, beautiful churches and a lively, welcoming community.

Beaches nearby

Although built slightly inland from the coast, it's very close to the Moudania beaches, such as Plagia–Flogita and Vergia, with shallow water ideal for families with children.

Food and life

In its tavernas you'll taste local wine, traditional dishes with Asia Minor influences and countryside produce — an authentic gastronomic experience.

Getting there and around

It's only ~40 minutes by car from Thessaloniki. Nearby are Nea Moudania, Sozopoli and ancient Olynthos.

Who it suits and when

Ideal for those wanting to combine nearby sea with wine tourism and authentic refugee culture. Worth visiting year-round, peaking in summer.
