Sani Beach is a Blue Flag-awarded stretch of coastline located on the Kassandra peninsula of Halkidiki, Greece. It sits within a 1,000-acre private ecological reserve known as the Sani Resort estate. The beach features fine, white sand and exceptionally shallow, turquoise waters suitable for families. It is backed by a protected pine forest that provides natural shade and runs along the Aegean Sea. The shoreline is part of a complex that maintains strict environmental sustainability standards, including a zero-waste policy and reliance on renewable energy. A marina facility sits adjacent to the beach area, connecting the shoreline to a commercial pedestrian zone.
