Day trip to Ouranoupolis and Mount Athos

Spreading along the serene coastline, Ouranoupolis, often referred to as the “gate of Athos” due to its proximity to the monastic community, seamlessly blends stunning beaches with captivating natural beauty. The village’s skyline is graced by the 14th-century Byzantine tower of Prosphorion, the largest tower in Halkidiki, serving as both a landmark and a testament to its rich history. Visitors can enjoy a cruise to Mt Athos, Greece’s religious landmark, and enjoy a unique blend of spiritual depth and breathtaking Aegean views.

For those seeking relaxation, the pristine beaches invite sunbathing and refreshing dips in the azure waters. Apart from a cruise to Mt Athos, you can explore the small islands around Ouranoupolis by boat and taste delicious seafood in one of the many taverns of this fishing village.
