Neos Panteleimon
Neos Panteleimon Resort
Besides sunbathing and swimming in the sea, Neos Panteleimon, one of the well-known, yet peaceful resorts on the Olympic Riviera, offers relaxation and regeneration of both your soul and body. Despite the growing tourism, the originally fishing village preserves its peace and the character of a small seaside town. In Neos Panteleimon, you can stay in all kinds of accommodation facilities depending on your budget, including a hotel or some of the campsites (which are especially popular in this location).
Neos Panteleimon beaches
The prevailing activity in the Neos Panteleimon resort is obviously ´beach tourism´. The beach surface is formed by sand, with the beach sloping gently into the sea depths, and so, being suitable also for children and less experienced swimmers (which can be appreciated especially by families with children). With the hours spent on a deckchair under the hot Greek sun, you will get a nice bronze suntan, while the clean sea water will refresh your body. A bit of swimming or practicing water sports will do you good, too.
What to do in Neos Panteleimon
In the streets in the centre, you will find several shops for your little holiday purchases, and tavernas and restaurants for a nice sit-down over a glass of good wine or some Greek seafood speciality. Given the number of tourists, the village has become somewhat international, and so, the choice of refreshment is completed also by fastfood restaurants.
Neos Panteleimon surroundings
The whole region of the Olympic Riviera is suitable for hiking and trips by all means of transport. You can visit e.g. the nearby resort of Platamonas which you can reach comfortably by walking. It is especially tempting for young people as after the sunset, this resort becomes lively with night merrymaking. Yet during the day, there are also things to see, like the old Venetian castle or some of the picturesque secluded places. Another village worth visiting is Palios, the old Panteleimon with its charming houses flooded by exuberant green vegetation. Besides that, you can set off to the mountainous area of the Mount Olympus or visit the magnetic mountain which seemingly refutes all the physical laws on the earth.
