Blue Halkidiki 2022

A FEW WORDS ABOUT "BLUE HALKIDIKI"

Seven days of environmental actions in and out of the sea

Blue Halkidiki started in 2021 with the intention of doing something bigger and powerful to reduce marine pollution and continued in 2022 with great success. The pollution of the seas is globally one of the biggest and most serious problems that our planet is facing and humans are unable to realize the magnitude of the problem as they do not live in them. 

So we joined our vision and our forces with other people and businessmen and together we designed a voluntary program with a series of actions, with the aim of informing, sensitizing the world and contributing practically to the cleaning of the coasts and seabeds of the Toroneos Gulf of Halkidiki.

There is much more to Blue Halkidiki, which you can only understand if you experience it up close.  

Every year we set the bar higher and we are already preparing for the next one.

The start of Blue Halkidiki 2022 took place on Saturday 18 June and the end on Friday 24 June. The actions started on Saturday June 18 with a two-day Beach Volley Tournament, which marked the start of the project, on the beach of the Blue Dolphin Hotel in Metamorfosi, Halkidiki. 

Volunteers and partners traveled along the coast of Toroneos Bay by catamaran, carried out underwater cleanups and coastal events for 7 consecutive days. 

INFORMATION | SENITIZATION | MOTIVATION

THE GOAL
BLUE HALKIDIKI

This 3 words fully cover the objective of BLUE HALKIDIKI.
Raising awareness and informing the world about marine pollution is the most important purpose for which we organize and voluntarily participate in this great effort.
However, motivation is the result of proper information and awareness, because to help the planet, practical actions are needed.
Το BLUE HALKIDIKI however, has another very strong goal, the promotion of Halkidiki as a destination of special ecological interest.
Of course, through these actions, a valuable opportunity is created for researching the seabed of Halkidiki, mapping it and getting to know the marine life of the Toroneos gulf and what kind of finds and waste are found on the seabed and on the coast.
