The Olympic Beach
A sandy beach stretching for several kilometres, clean sand and shallow sea, Olympic Beach has been regularly awarded the European Blue Flag for many years, and attracts a large number of tourists every summer.

There is a wide range of accommodation for you to choose for your stay, including Hotels, rooms to rent and bungalows and a campsite. A great array of restaurants and taverns of every type are waiting to cater for your tastes with both local and international cuisine.

Olympic Beach marks the central point of the County of Pieria and belongs to the Municipality of Katerini.

The beaches of Paralia and Olympic Beach are one continuous stretch of golden sand, the two communities being linked by a well lit avenue with a bicycle track running alongside and a path for pedestrians wishing to take either a morning or evening stroll.

Situated just 8 kms from Katerini, it is easily reached from The National Motorway E75 (Junctions: Katerini or Korinos) and from the recently completed coastal road from Nea Agathoupoli to Olympic Beach (Katerinoskala). It is also served by the railway from Salonika to Athens (Station: Katerini).
The Pieria
Most people know Pieria and Olympus from Greek mythology. Others have heard about it from the tales told by visitors to the area. However, no matter how enchanting the myth is, no matter how flattering the information is, the Pieria that you, the visitor, will discover is the most beautiful.

Few places combine endless stretches of beach with golden sands and crystal clear seas, mountains with history and natural beauty, excellent tourist infrastructure, affordable prices and above all excellent public transport bringing transport time down to a matter of minutes.

Few places combine so many different types of holiday along 70 kilometers of coastline from quiet, family resorts to weekend outings for the young and restless.

Few places can combine completely different forms of entertainment, leisure and cultural activities like Pieria can, thanks to its geographical diversity, long history and the friendly, hardworking and reliable nature of its people.
