Ouranoupolis Beach

Ouranoupolis Beach is situated in the scenic region of Ouranoupoli, Halkidiki, Greece, near the old naval station of the Chromitsa Monastery and at the borders of Mount Athos. This peaceful beach location is well-known for its tranquil ambiance and breathtaking views of Mount Athos.

The beach is celebrated for its crystal-clear and pristine waters, enhancing the overall serene atmosphere of the place. However, visitors should note that there are no shower facilities directly on the beach. While amenities on the beach itself may be limited, Ouranoupolis Beach is conveniently adjacent to an upscale town.
