Taste Fresh and Local Seafood
For seafood lovers, Nea Fokaia is an excellent destination. There are tavernas along the beach offering freshly caught fish, grilled octopus, calamari, mussels and shrimp.

Eating on the shore listening to the waves and inhaling the aroma of fried fish is one of the main pleasures of Nea Fokaia Halkidiki.
