Family Holidays to Halkidiki

They say no where in Greece boasts beaches like Halkidiki thanks to its unspoilt landscape and shallow sapphire ripples. Better yet, this three-fingered peninsula has endless family-friendly activities from its plunging shoots in Crazyland Waterpark Pefkohori to its Magic Park amusements and NOESIS Science Museum.

When you’re not having endless fun, take advantage of spacious interconnecting suites, around-the-clock entertainment and inexpensive tavernas – this island ticks off all the essentials for a child-focused getaway.
