The day explores the coast of the Thermaikos municipality from Perea to the Epanomi peninsula, alternating seaside walks, a cultural visit, and protected landscapes. The first hours are devoted to the beach resorts closest to Thessaloniki; in the afternoon, the route continues toward the Gerovassiliou estate and Potamos Beach. Epanomi Lagoon is the ideal finale for taking in the coastal environment and, weather permitting, the sunset. To link the southern stops easily, it is advisable to have a car or arrange taxi transfers in advance.

10:00
Walk and stop at Perea Beach
Start from the waterfront in Perea, easily reached from Thessaloniki by car or taxi; by public transport the journey takes longer and may involve changes. Stroll along the promenade and take in the city skyline across the gulf; a drink at a seaside café costs about 3–6 €.
In summer, choose the morning hours to find fewer crowds and easier parking.
11:15
Coastal stretch toward Agia Triada
Reach Agia Triada in about 15–20 minutes by car, following the coast; on foot, you can explore a short section of the waterfront, but it is not necessary to cover the full distance from Perea. Take a break for the beach and the view over the gulf: sun loungers and umbrellas, when available, may cost around 5–15 € or require a purchase.
Beach service is seasonal: bring water and sunscreen.
12:30
Beach stop at Agia Triada Beach
Set aside an hour for a swim or a walk on the beach, which is quieter than the central areas of Perea at certain times of day. The shore is ideal for a relaxed break; check on site for any available services, as availability and conditions change with the season.
Respect local signs and do not leave litter on the beach.
13:30
Lunch on the coast
Stop at a taverna or seaside spot in the Agia Triada area, choosing fish, salads, or simple Greek dishes. Budget around 15–25 € per person for a meal, with variations depending on the venue and the dishes ordered.
Ask the price of fish sold by weight before ordering.
15:00
Wine Museum at the Gerovassiliou Estate
Continue by car to the Gerovassiliou Estate in the Epanomi area: the transfer takes about 25–35 minutes, depending on traffic and route. The museum tells the story of the vine and winemaking through tools and collections; visits and tastings may have different rates, roughly 5–15 € for a guided activity or tasting.
Check opening days and hours in advance and book the tasting: access may depend on the schedule.
17:00
Afternoon at Potamos Beach
Reach Potamos Beach in about 15–25 minutes by car from the estate. Spend the afternoon walking along the long shoreline and, if the sea is calm and the season allows, take a swim; bring water with you, as facilities may be far apart or limited.
Check sea conditions and park only in designated areas.
19:00
Birdwatching at the Epanomi lagoon
Finish in the lagoon area, reachable from the coast with a short drive and a walk depending on the access point. The area is valuable for its habitats and birdlife: observe from a distance, without entering restricted zones or disturbing the animals. The stop is free; allow around 30–45 minutes for a relaxed walk and the sunset light.
The dirt roads may be rough: do not continue if the surface or signage is unsuitable for your vehicle.
