The beach was founded by fishermen after 1922. Due to its excellent geographical location, it quickly became a popular tourist destination with many hotels and holiday apartments, beach bars offering water sports activities, traditional Greek tavernas, and local shops for visitors who not only want to relax during their summer holidays but also experience the local spirit.<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Just 15 minutes by car from the beach, you can visit Litochoro, located at the foot of Mount Olympus, the highest mountain in Greece (peak Mytikas \/ 2,917 meters in height). Olympus is famous not only for its nature with rare and rich flora and fauna but also for Greek mythology, as it was the home of the 12 Olympian Gods, where Zeus decided to reside. A few kilometers away, you can visit the Archaeological Museum and the open-air Ancient Theatre of Dion, the \"sacred place\" of Ancient Macedonia, as well as the starting point where Alexander the Great gathered his armies before beginning his western conquests.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
