Halkidiki has three peninsulas.
Kassandra, the first, is overbuilt, charmless and dominated by packaged people.
Sithonia, the second, is a land of pines, fine beaches, winding roads and little accommodation.
Athos, the third, is occupied in the north by more package hotels, but in the south by a semi-autonomous cluster of monasteries that will not permit any female creature - other than hens - within 500 metres of its territory. Foreign entry to Athos is limited to ten males per day.
