Kavourotripes

The famous Kavourotripes is a cluster of small beaches in a coastline which is over 5km. In fact, Kavourotripes is extremely popular among the naturalists and campsite lovers. The place is literally pure, there are no camping facilities and no restaurants or shops around. People visit Kavourotripes, in order to find their ultimate relaxation far from the city’s noises and crowds! If you’re planning to camp in the area it’s recommended that you come fully equipped with your personal camping material, tents, or whatever you might need while there!

TIP: In fact, there is not any road sign, so while you are on the main road of Sithonia pay attention to the sign ‘Beach Bar Portokali’. Upon your arrival, wonderful green and blue waters and also sculptures carved on the rocks by several artists adorn these beaches will steal your heart. Those beaches are actually deserted and some of those are also ideal for people who love skinny dipping! (yes, remote, naturalistic landscapes). Remember to pay extreme attention to the bushes and the rocks because the passes are rough and sometimes dangerous.
