Fantastic beach in places. Calm clear sea but overcrowded. Sun beds on average were the price of a drink 3 euros _ quality of beds drinks and WiFi vary. One area had a non smoking section but was packed. This beach would be better if there was a no smoking policy as this might prevent the build up of cigarette butts in the sand . At one point felt like I was smoking several cigerettes myself. Couldn't find any showers or taps to rinse off sea water, This resort is mainly frequented by Bulgarians and Serbians didn't meet hardly any Greeks apart from the young waiters/waitresses who were mainly students from Thesonoloniki _ very charming and highly educated. Apart from the sea and Sun did not feel like Greece at all. Will not be returning _ will stick to other Greek Islands that retain relaxed Mediterranean vibe.

Spent a day here out of main season so there was availability of loungers for €3 each. Quite narrow but clean and lovely water - ideal for snorkelling and bathing.

Almost all sunbeds in combination with an umbrella are paid in Kallitheas Beach, stating from 10€ for two sunbeds with umbrella per day! Additionally, a frappe coffee is 4€! On top, the order is too tight, you have no commotion! That's a shame!
The beach is sandy and is more or less okay.

We start driving at 10:30 from Afitos to Nea Fokea we will stop at the byzantine tower. After we are driving to suni resort there there is a small lake. We will drive between sani and Kassandria in the forest. And we will stop before Fourka where is a small church from 1850 there we are going to have our launch. Near to the church there is a very beautiful bay for swimming. We will follow the road

Before going on the trip Sven has been really helpful providing all the information needed before boarding.
We went for an afternoon sail and once we got on the boat Sven took us to this beautiful spot where we could jump in the water whilst he was preparing a delicious food salad. The view, spot and trip were well chosen for the time and day of the trip but most importantly Sven is a very approachable and sociable host.
The only regret we have is that we didn't do the sailing earlier when we arrived in Halkidiki. Don't make the same mistake.
Thank you Sven and it was nice crossing paths :)

We decided to try the Discover Scuba program with Dive-greece (no prior diving experience) .... best choice we made this holiday. Instructor was very professional and careful; constant status checks while in the water. Went throught safety training and off we go....
Gear looks great and everything went flawless.
Extra: pick-up and drop off service from the hotel! Simply brilliant.
100% recomended!

A long stretch of beach forming a sandbank with water on 3 directions. You can leisure there as it's pretty quiet, enjoy the view of the hills and Mountains behind you or swim in the cold crystal sea. You can also enjoy jumping in the waves that intensify on the tip due to the crisscrossing of the currents.

We've booked a trial dive and decided onsite to make the open water diver course afterwards. Our dive instructors Anton and Trifon did a very good job! They explained everything very well with words or with hands, whenever the English words were missing. We’ve made several exams underwater and ashore like searching for goggles underwater or cleaning of the equipment after the dive. For the certificate we needed to make theoretical exams as well, but don’t worry, in the afternoon there was still plenty of time to relax at the beach.
Anton and Trifon collected us every morning at our hotel and in the afternoon they brought us back so that we did not need to take a taxi or so. One afternoon we were invited to join a “Yamas” together with the other divers, it was like spending time with friends. I really can recommend Sredetz Diving Center in Pefkohori!

To be honest, having a blue flag on the beach is extra DOT on that rating ... and Fourka has the flag soooooo.... that Extra 4th dot is just because of the clean water;
Overall, a nice place for relaxing holiday, village has not much of a night life.
But for me that was exactly what I was looking for. To be honest I`m going there next week with my family (water is clean almost transparent and really nice when there are no weaves. Its generally with sand and maybe few stones on the way...but you will hardly notice them)
On down side, starting from September, the village is almost empty...the shops are closed and if that poor Masoutis doesn't support us with food ... people will die from hunger;
Only two local restaurants worked during our stay there last time.
But I bypass this and still going there, coz of the nice relaxing time.
