About

Experience this spot in Polichrono. Great location for water skiing, wake boarding, sailing and wind surfing. Polichrono is a beautiful coastal village located on the eastern coast of the Kassandra Peninsula in Halkidiki, Greece. The village is surrounded by lush forests and colorful flora. The turquoise waters of the Aegean Sea calmly lap at the white sand beaches, creating a lovely contrast with the verdant greenery of the surrounding countryside. The area is dominated by rocky hills, which offer a picturesque backdrop to the village. The town is dotted with charming tavernas and cafes set along the narrow streets and the beach, selling traditional Greek food and drink. The scenery surrounding Polichrono is ideal for those looking for a peaceful retreat and a chance to immerse themselves in the natural beauty of Greece.
