    The first place you need to go to is Chalkidiki<\/a>. It is a Greece peninsula<\/a> and is always worth a visit, especially in summer. The island has a lot of bays with three headlands, which offer you a quiet snorkeling<\/a> experience. Chalkidiki is perfect, especially for beach holiday lovers<\/a>, as there are kilometers of white sandy beaches, turquoise blue water, and numerous restaurants right on the coast. Furthermore, the three headlands (also known as \u2018Fingers of Greece\u2019) are unique in their own way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The first finger is Kassandra which houses long sandy beaches, olive groves, and pine forests with small viewpoints. Next, the second finger is Sithonia which is more of an insider tip. It is not overly developed with tourism, there are many quiet spots to look over at sea. Lastly, the third finger is Athos, an almost autonomous monastic republic. Overall, Chalkidiki is one of the perfect snorkeling spots in Europe, as the clear water is home to various aquatic creatures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
