Kassandra is the westernmost tip of Chalkidiki and is relatively close to Thessaloniki. Impressive is the entrance to Kassandra as it joins Chalkidiki with the bridge of Nea Potidea, the first village that the visitor meets.

It is worth mentioning that the ancient name of Kassandra was Flegra, which means a place of fire.
