Intents Kavourotrypes, Sithonia

Campers who enjoy primitive conditions will be happy chappies in the pine woods of eastern Sithonia, Halkildiki, where the views are sensational and the beaches sublime.
Official camp sites these are not, so facilities such as running water do no exist. Thus some wheels would be useful for travelling to and from local grocer stores and moving location when the endless blue becomes tiresome.
This area is called Kavourotrypes, and it's a series of charming little coves about 15km north of Sarti. They are not signposted so just dive into the pines just north of the big official camp site at Pilatsi [?]. Or stay at Pilatsi if you fancy a little more organisation.

Karydi beach, Sithonia.

A long walk or a short ride from the cluster of domatia in the non-town of Vourvourou, Karydi offers no services to travellers, just the shade of pine trees, soft sand, characterful rocks and views across to Halkidiki's third peninsula, Athos. More suited to families than couples perhaps, there being a dearth of romantic restaurants with candles and sea views.
