Kavala and Alexandroupoli

The coastal drive from Halkidiki to Turkey was beautiful, rugged and totally undeveloped with endless wild camping spots, and very few campers there (and almost no campsites). We needed to re-charge and fill up with water though so we eventually reached camping Sarakina, a lovely traditional Greek beach-campsite outside Kavala. Our experience in this part of Greece, campsites tended to be small and cramped full of semi-permanent-caravan-dwellings with makeshift infrastructure: kind of Affordable second homes, rather than empty bays for summer touring Motorhomes. Our next stop we wild camped alongside Turkish campers at Alexandroupoli, the last city before we reached the Turkish border.Läs mer
