Activities in Sithonia: From Hiking to Scuba Diving

Sithonia is a natural playground for those who can't just stay still on a sunbed. The region's landscape uniquely combines mountains and sea, offering activities that will fill your holidays with energy and new experiences.

If you are staying at Lagomandra Beach Hotel, you are at the perfect starting point to explore the wild side of Halkidiki.

1. Scuba Diving

The seabed of Sithonia hides many surprises: from underwater reefs and caves to rich marine life.

• Where: There are certified diving schools in the Lagomandra and Neos Marmaras area offering lessons for beginners (Discovery Dives) and excursions for experienced divers.

2. Hiking on Mount Itamos

Mount Itamos is the "lung" of Sithonia. With a network of trails crossing Natura 2000 protected areas, hiking here is a truly rejuvenating experience.

• Highlight: Look for the ancient Itamos tree, which is over 2,000 years old!

3. Water Sports & Kayaking

At Lagomandra Beach, you can try everything: from water skiing and wakeboarding to SUP (Stand Up Paddling).

• Tip: Rent a kayak and explore the neighboring small coves that are inaccessible by road. It’s the best workout with the most beautiful view.

4. Horseback Riding

Imagine riding through pine forests or walking with a horse by the shore at sunset. There are horse riding farms near Neos Marmaras that offer organized tours for the whole family.
