Boat Tours in Ouranoupoli with Rent a Boat Lampou

Ouranoupoli, a gateway to the northern reaches of Greece's Halkidiki peninsula, offers a rugged coastline backed by dense pine forests and a gateway to the tranquil Aegean Sea. From this coastal village, Rent a Boat Lampou operates private boat tours to the Drenia and Ammouliani islands, distinct pearls in the azure waters just off the mainland. These islands stand apart for their quiet beaches, crystal-clear turquoise bays, and striking natural landscapes shaped by millennia of wind and sea.

The boat tour departs from Ouranoupoli’s harbor, a lively yet unpretentious spot where the Mediterranean climate molds warm sea breezes with a hint of salty pine. Onboard, guests enjoy the freedom of a private cruise that snakes through secluded coves and quiet beaches inaccessible by land. Swimming stops on Drenia reveal small stretches of fine sand framed by rocky coves, ideal for those seeking calm waters and minimal crowds. Ammouliani Island, the only inhabited island in this group, offers a surprising mix of traditional Greek village charm and fresh local cuisine, including seafood caught daily by island fishermen.

What makes Rent a Boat Lampou unique in this landscape is its intimate, locally-run approach. Unlike larger tour operators, they offer a genuine connection to the region through small-group experiences focused on personalized service and authentic cultural touches like folklore stories and culinary insights. This helps visitors engage beyond the surface, understanding the islands’ place in Greek maritime history and natural heritage.

For adventurers looking to combine active water time with cultural richness, this boat tour provides a rare chance to move effortlessly between the peacefulness of nature and the warmth of genuine Greek island life. With the striking contrasts of dense woodlands meeting sharp limestone cliffs and the pristine blue sea, the Drenia-Ammouliani Islands trip is one of Halkidiki’s understated, unforgettable outdoor experiences.
