Sithonia Travel Guide — Things to Do, Food & Hotels
peninsula of Chalkidiki, Greece
About Sithonia
The narrow peninsula is also called the second "finger" of Chalkidiki. In the interior of Sithonia it is very mountainous, but the mountains are not as high as Mount Athos but much higher than those on Kassandra. Sithonia is not yet as well developed as Kassandra. Sithonia is more calm. The noisy discos that are typical on the neighboring peninsula are rare here. The hotels were built later and therefore the architectural is more sophisticated. Giant hotel complexes cannot be found here, with one exception: Porto Carras in the south of Marmaras on the west coast, which was built decades ago. Also, the beaches are not quite so overloaded here. Tourism and traffic in summer have increased significantly, especially due to tourism from Southeastern Europe.
