Tourism[edit]
Chalkidiki has been a popular summer tourist destination since the late 1950s when people from Thessaloniki started spending their summer holidays in the coastal villages. In the beginning tourists rented rooms in the houses of locals. By the 1960s, tourists from Austria and Germany started to visit Chalkidiki more frequently. Since the start of the big tourist boom in the 1970s, the whole region has been captured by tourism.[7] In the region there is a golf course and there is a plan for other four in the future.
Mining[edit]
Gold was mined in the region during antiquity by Philip II of Macedon and the next rulers. Since 2013, a revival of mining for gold and other minerals was underway with a number of concessions having been granted to Eldorado Gold of Canada. However, critics claim that mining would adversely affect tourism and the environment.[8]
Administration[edit]
The regional unit Chalkidiki is subdivided into five municipalities. These are (number as in the map in the infobox):[9]
Aristotelis (2)
Kassandra (4)
Nea Propontida (3)
Polygyros (1)
Sithonia (5)
Prefecture[edit]
As a part of the 2011 Kallikratis government reform, the regional unit Chalkidiki was created out of the former prefecture Chalkidiki (Greek: Νομός Χαλκιδικής). The prefecture had the same territory as the present regional unit. At the same time, the municipalities were reorganised, according to the table below.[9]

Greece has been an attraction for international visitors since antiquity for its rich and long history, Mediterranean coastline and beaches.
Greece has more than 16,000 kilometers (9,320 miles) of coastline, 200,000 beaches, 6,000 islands (and islets).
Greece's coastline is by far the longest coastline in the Mediterranean sea, and the tenth longest in the world. The deepest point in the Mediterranean Sea is called the Calypso Deep, it is located in the Ionian Sea south-west of Pylos in Greece, and is 5,267 meters deep (17,280 feet).
The quality of coastal bathing waters in Greece is systematically monitored since 1988 (according to Directive 76/160/EEC), and since then Greece has been receiving excellent reports on its bathing water sites, with more than 95% of them meeting the most stringent guide values (excellent quality).
Greece and Cyprus have the cleanest coastal bathing waters in Europe. Most beaches have shallow, calm, crystal clear waters that make them ideal for young children and families.
Greek summer is always hot, calm, sunny, cloudless and dry and the Greek sea is blue, clear and safe, not only health-wise but also due to the fact that encounters with dangerous/venomous sea creatures and organisms is extremely rare in Greece, as such species are not endemic to the Mediterranean region.
