![](../../common/img_cities_w300/flogita-chalkidiki--817427-2.jpg)
Cassandra is the most popular area of the town. Here you will see picturesque beaches that are surrounded by pine woods; the remote areas are the location of secluded coves and bays that are perfect for scuba diving and underwater hunting. The local people from the nearby fishing villages have opened numerous cozy taverns and restaurants right on the beach. Here you will be served excellent seafood dishes, homemade wine and sweets. Sithonia is the noisiest area of this place. Here you will find best nightclubs and discos, many shopping centers and markets. The beaches here are also different, but all of them are well-equipped. The heart of the region is noisy and crowded, and remote harbors are the best place to enjoy the silence and the sound of waves. Holy Athos area is famous for its ancient temples and monasteries. Here is located the only Orthodox Monastic Republic of Athos. It should be also noted that the entrance to Athos is strictly forbidden to women, but the surrounding area is absolutely free and opened for visitors.
Over the recent years, the resort district of Nea Flogita has developed significantly. It is famous for its top-rated beach, the total length of which is one and a half kilometers. Despite the fact that this district is one of the newest, it started being built in 1923. At one time, the lands where the resort area is located now belonged to the Monastery on Holy Mt. Athos that laid in ruins at the beginning of the 20th century. So, the district was literally built on the ruins of the ancient monastery. Today, several preserved historical constructions are being reconstructed.

The favorite place for walks of guests and local residents is the embankment that stretches almost along the entire beach. On both sides of the embankment, beautiful palm trees and ornamental plants grow and comfortable benches are installed. It is important to note that it will be interesting to vacation in Flogita not only in the summer period. In summer, it is a noisy and uncrowded resort but it is almost desert in autumn. It is difficult to find a better place for peaceful recreation in an uncrowded atmosphere at this time of the year.
