About the Destination

Ierissos is the largest town on the eastern coast of Halkidiki, facing the Athos peninsula across a long sandy bay. It is a quieter destination than the Kassandra resorts, popular with families and travellers who prefer a more authentic Greek town atmosphere with a working fishing harbour.

The drive from Thessaloniki Airport follows the Egnatia Odos eastbound, then turns south onto the Athos road past Stagira — the birthplace of Aristotle — and Stratoni before reaching Ierissos on the bay.
