Overview

The landscape is rich in contrasts. Green hills, valley traversed by small river, tracts of lowland, endless sandy beaches. Istrons coastline is about 14 km long. The features beautiful! Clean crystal sea waters, award winning (blue  flag) beaches and, for the romantically inclined secluded bays which have retained their natural charm.

The uniqueness of the physical beauty of the Kalo Horio -Istron region and the friendliness of the inhabitants have given it a reputation as a summer resort and a very favorite place to buy a house for living. In Greek, Kalo Chorio means ";Good Village"; perhaps because it sits on particularly rich and fertile soil, and also has some of the most beautiful beaches in the bay of Mirabello. It has been said that the southern coastline of the Gulf of Mirabello has something of the Character of the Riviera, but with uncrowned beaches and only a few hotels. The village with a population of around 900, nestles attractively in the midst of a verdant hilly landscape, where olive groves and abundant and colorful Mediterranean shrubs and plants reach all the way down to the sea. Over the past years, naturally with tourism, part of the village has grown up nearer the beach.
