METAMORFOSSI (Village) HALKIDIKI
Tel: +30 23750 61276
Fax: +30 23750 61276
  Metamorfosis is a beautiful, all green, touristic village, it is located near Sithonia and it is built next to the sea with a very good town plan.
  The citizens are immigrants from the Asia Minor, very hospitable and kind and always ready to offer their valuable services to the local and the foreign tourists.
  It is probably one of the most beautiful villages in the Northern Greece. It is located on a verdurous slope of a hill, full of old pines and next to the sea. Its golden beaches, the very clean deep blue sea and the delicate shores made it very well known all over Greece and Europe. The perfect orientation grants the area one of the best climates in Greece - cool summer, mild winter with almost no humidity.
  That's why the fact that the Ministry of Education chose the area in 1950 for the first summer camp is not at all coincidental. The summer camp is still operating.

NEA SERMYLI (Settlement) HALKIDIKI
  Nea Sermyli was built very recently. The citizens are scattered all around the ruins of the ancient Sermyli. It's 5 km away from Ormylia. The settlement grows very fast because it is upon the junction of the local road to Ormylia and the highway Thessaloniki - Sithonia and because of the installation of many commercial motions in the area. Due to those facts, today there are 80 citizens in the settlement, while the National Population Counting of 1991 had recorded 29 citizens.

Ormylia Community

ORMYLIA (Small town) HALKIDIKI
  Ormylia is the primary settlement and the head of the municipality. It is built on the northern area at the foothill of the mt. Holomontas. Its population reaches the 3.500 persons and it's the third biggest settlement of the country. The general urban design of Chalkidiki country suggests the preservation of the architectural and town - planning elements of the settlement, considering also the fact that this is what the citizens wish too. The oldest building in the settlement is the central Church of St George (1818). Some newer ones that are still intact are: the campanile, some country houses from the previous century and the old public school of 1909 in a very good shape. That building also serves these days as the town hall.

PSAKOUDIA (Settlement) HALKIDIKI
  It is the entrance of Ormylia and the settlement that attracts most of the touristic activity and area development. It is built by the sea, on the SW part of the municipality and next to the highway Thessaloniki - Sithonia. Psakoudia is mainly a settlement for vacations, in a coastal area of amazing beauty and it's easily accessed. It has 120 permanent denizens and their main occupation is touristic business. During summer the population reaches the 4000 habitants.
  The structure of the settlement includes 4 big hotels (600 beds in total), around 500 rooms to let, a camp and many restaurants, patisseries and coffee houses. In 1993 the Ministry of Environment approved a plan for the urban expansion of the settlement in an area of 600.000 sq.mt that will increase the potential for future development of the settlement.
