How to get

Peace and quiet, a campsite and freedom, pristine nature and an opportunity to swim and to sunbathe stark-naked — that is how you can describe this beach.

Beach features

The wild Azapiko beach in Sithonia attracts those people who like to travel in caravans. You can park your temporary house right on the beach. Azapiko is an unequipped beach, so you have to take towels or sun loungers as well as beach umbrellas with you. 

The water is crystal-clear here, the shore and the sea bottom are covered with coarse golden and white sand. At the same time, a few metres of the entrance to the sea are pebbled, stone slabs occur as well. Further, the depth of more than 10 metres opens in front of the swimmers. You should keep a close watch on the children!

The entertainment nearby

Azapiko beach in Halkidiki is a wonderful place for diving. You can explore the local sea inhabitants and admire sea urchins, various fish and jellyfish.

Travelers say the beach itself is deserted. Just several hotels are located nearby.

On the right side of the coast a pine grove extends where you can have a rest in the shadow and take good photos.

The Free Earth Festival

Since 2016 a beach festival of psychedelic music has been held in Azapiko at the end of August — the event is called Free Earth Festival. It represents spectacular audiovisual show with exclusive decorations. The world-class artists are among the performers. Professional music equipment and sound systems are used during the festival. 

The information about the place

The beach of Azapiko is located in southwestern part of Sithonia peninsula (Halkidiki), between the settlements of Neos Marmaras and Porto Koufo and the beaches of Tristinika and Styliadori. Keep in mind that the access to the beach is narrow and steep. Be careful!
