Drenia islets are located opposite Ouranoupoli and Ammouliani and their distance is around 2 nautical miles.
On these 6 islets you will find beautiful sandy beaches with shallow crystal clear waters that are strongly reminiscent of an enchanting island landscape. See in the video this earthly paradise that goes by the name "Drenia islands" or "Gaidouronisia", as the locals call them.
Any visit to Mount Athos area is not complete without touring the complex of islets, known collectively as the Drenia islands. All around it, there is a collection of uninhabited rocks basking in the midday sun, a haven of hidden inlets and golden beaches. It is considered to be one of the most virgin and untouched places in Halkidiki.
Keep in mind that the locals refer to Drenia as "Gaidouronisia" or "Donkey islands" as legends have it that it was where the earlier inhabitants of the island used to bring their donkeys to rest in peace.
