Geography of Halkidiki

Halkidiki is a peninsula with a distinct form, which is found in the center of Macedonia. It is geographically separated from the rest of Macedonia with a conceivable line that is extended the cape of Karampournou, it penetrates Hortiati, the hills southern of Lagada and the lake. The main peninsula of Halkidiki leads to three smaller peninsulas: the Kassandra, the Sithonia and the peninsula of Atho (Saint Mountain).

The geomorphology of Halkidiki is extremely interenting. It resembles an inclined geological level, while moving from western to eastern. Thus, in the western side and in Kassandra we find most of the plains, in the central region there are raised the mounts of Hortiati,of Holomonta and of Itamos and in the eastern point the splendid mountainous mass of mount Athos.

The three peninsulas, that give he impression that stick out from the Aegean Sea, make Halkidiki the prefecture with the biggest length of coastlines in the continental Greece. The coastline of Halkidiki exceeds the 500km, including every type of landscape. From the vast sandy beaches of Kalamaria, Nikitis, Toronis and Ierissos, to the rocky and woody sandy beaches of Sithonia, and from there to the graphic gulves of Vourvourou.

Halkidiki does not have rivers, and this is one of the reasons why the sea that encircles it is one of the cleanest of Greece.
