Nea Paralia (New Waterfront)

Leof. Meg. Alexandrou 6, Thessaloniki 546 41, Greece

An architectural feat that took more than a decade to complete, Thessaloníki’s three-kilometer waterfront park has revitalized the seafront. Punctuated by sculptures, fountains and themed gardens, the boardwalk throngs with locals jogging, fishing, cycling, busking or just gazing out to sea. On a clear day, you can see as far as Mount Olympus. Hire a ThessBike bicycle (1 euro per hour) or take a free harbor cruise on one of the floating bars moored by the White Tower.
