Introduction
On the western coast of Sithonia, Halkidiki’s central peninsula, surrounded by the rising slopes of Mt Meliton and the expansive blue of Toroneos Gulf, amidst 1,763 hectares of enchantingly verdant landscape, and along 11,5 km of sandy beach punctuated by 25 pristine coves, lies the one and only Porto Carras Grand Resort.
