About two kilometres of sand in front of the village of Nikiti at the entrance to the Sithonia peninsula, with a seafront promenade of tavernas, cafes and shops behind it. Pine trees and olive groves frame the shore, and the old village of stone houses on the hill above has a 19th-century church of Saint Nikitas.

About Nikiti Beach
The beach is 1,700 m long and about 15 m wide, facing south-west across the Kassandra Gulf. The shore and the seabed are both sand, with scattered pines, and the village harbour lies at the north-west end. Boats also use the bay as an anchorage.
