The seaside resort of Nea Peramos in Kavala prefecture, in northern Greece, located some 140 km east of Thessaloniki, features a stunning 15-km-long stretch of sandy beaches known as "ammolofi" (sand hills), amongst the best known beaches in the eastern Macedonia-Thrace region.

"Ammolofi", the beaches with the thin sand and the shallow crystal blue waters create an exotic atmosphere and have been awarded the "blue flag" eco-label received by European Union regions that have met high environmental standards.
