IN SITHONIA Halkidiki, Greece
Sarti... the sunny side of Life

Sarti belongs to the municipality of Sithonia, which is located around 135


km from Thessaloniki, at the east side of the Sithonia peninsula that reaches
into the Aegean Sea. Sarti is awarded by the Blue Flag, and we are proud to
obtain one every year for our clean beach and sea. Sarti’s beach is incredible
to say the least with crystal-clean water and is considered one of the best in
Greece. It also has one of the largest beaches of Sithonia. 
The view of Mount Athos and the glorious sunrise creates a picture that cer-
tainly is one to never be forgotten. Sarti has all things needed for an ideal
holiday: reliable hospitality services, wonderful beaches, night life, historical
monuments and welcoming people. 
Sarti is a holiday resort that combines the beauty of mountains and sea, white
sandy beaches and secluded coves that enchant the visitor, leaving him with
unforgettable memories.Where desire meets the dream and holidays become
a real and novel experience lays in Sarti.
Sarti also gets a nice breeze,
which is appreciated especially
during the very hot months that
of July and August. It will only take
a short drive in  Sarti to  impress
you  as one of the things you will
notice is the massive white sandy
beach lining the turquoise bay
against a back drop of pine covered
mountains.  On top of that  Sarti is
also blessed with the best view of
Mt. Athos. If you have seen any pic-
tures of a white sandy beach with
Mt. Athos dominating the fore-
ground, it was probably taken from
this spot.

Discover the paradise

The beaches around Sarti are without a doubt incomparable. Char-


acterized by fine white sand, and crystal clear turquoise waters, any beach
of Sarti will be a magical experience.There is always something here for every-
body, for every taste! If you want seclusion, the months of  May and October
bring few tourists, so most beaches are empty. Even in the busier months you
can still find an isolated cove. 
The exquisite beach of  Kavourotripes (Orange beach) is a must see, often de-
scribed as Heaven on Earth. There are pine trees almost reaching down to the
water, and on the grey rock formations of this cove you will admire the lying
mermaid carved onto them.

History

During the great population ex-


changes between Turkey and
Greece (1922), the Greek inhabit-
ants of the small island of Afisia
(Avsa) in the Sea of Marmara (Tur-
key) left their homes and were re-
settled here in Sarti. The Greek ref-
ugees, who were turned away from
the Sea of Marmara in Asia Minor,
decided to found the Sarti (New
Afisia), one of the 27 new villages
of Chalkidiki, a new homeland. 
When they reached Sarti, they
were accommodated in the build-
ings of the monastery dependency
of Xiropotamou of Mount Athos for
almost two years, until their houses
were built that would accommo-
date themselves and their dreams
for a new beginning.

In a few decades they changed the


hostile but at the same time en-
chanting nature, in a graphic fishing
village and later in a leading choice
tourist destination. The 21st cen-
tury will find the region touristically
mature and as always sublime, to
receive persons from all over the
world every summer and to offer
them generously  what  everyone 
expects,  the authentic Greek hos-
pitality.
LIVE YOUR MYTH IN SITHONIA
Feast your senses on crystal clear waters,
clean sandy beaches, and wild rocky formations,
under clear blue skies
and the bright sunlight.

Call this bag “symphony of green and blue” because of its rich vegetation
down to the blue waters of the coast. Beaches are long and sandy for the most
part absolutely bare, broken into smaller or larger bays. Water and other bags
is crystal clear, transparent and peaceful.
