3 properties

Ierissos is one of the largest towns on the Athos peninsula, an old fishing town of about 3,000 people, some 120 km from Thessaloniki. It has a long beach with a palm-lined promenade, tavernas serving fresh fish, supermarkets and a market on Tuesdays. The sea is warm from early in the season, and when the wind blows, visitors switch to Xiropotamos beach on the other side of the peninsula, about 6 km away. It suits families and anyone who enjoys a quiet, relaxed holiday.
