Afitos holidays centre around an old-world village and a dazzling beach for travellers looking to slow down for a while.
Crystal-clear seas
From its clifftop perch in the Halkidiki region of Greece, Afitos keeps its gem of a beach nicely hidden. The track down to the azure shore's steep, but well worth the effort. The long stretch of sand provides plenty of room to stroll or sunbathe on loungers, and the water's invitingly clear.
Authentic shabby-chic
Cobbled streets and stone houses give a real old-school feel to Afitos village. The residents are warm and welcoming, and the tavernas full of tasty fare worth smashing a plate over.
Historic highlights
In the village square is Agios Dimitrios, a magnificent old church built in 1859. Wander around the folklore museum, enjoy a bite of Greek cuisine and settle into the laidback beat of this charming village.
A daytripper's dream
From cave tours to sailing trips, Byzantine towers to wildlife reserves, there's no shortage of activities in the surrounding areas. You can get around easily, with most trips taking less than half an hour – easily enough time to get back before sunset.
