Where pine forest meets a wine-dark sea.
Kriopigi — "cold spring" — sits on the western Kassandra coast, a crescent of fine sand under Aleppo pines, looking out over what Homer called the oînops póntos, the wine-dark sea. This guide gathers what locals, scientists, and travelers have learned of its tides, meadows, and migrants.
