AMMOULIANI: A JEWEL ISLAND IN HALKIDIKI
Ammouliani is the only inhabited
island in Halkidiki and charms every visitor, since it has everything somebody
can ask gothered all in an area of just 4.500 acres. Ammouliani is located just
120 km from Thessaloniki and is connected by frequent ferryboat routes with
only 10 minutes duration, with the port of Tripiti.
Famous for years to the residents of
Thessaloniki and Halkidiki, Ammouliani has been their “secret” since recently.
But such a beauty it is difficult to remain unknown for long, so this fairytale
island in the bay of the Holy Mountain didn’t take long to gain a fan club from
abroad.
What makes hundreds of people to
visit Ammouliani in the summer, are the numerous – relatively to its size -
beaches. They are sandy, with crystal clean turquoise water and can be reached
by car or by boat from the port. The private bays are the ideal destination for
those seeking peace and relaxation, while the sandy beaches are ideal for water
sports.
