The Singitic Gulf (Greek: Σιγγιτικός Κόλπος, romanizedSingitikos Kolpos), also known as the Mount Athos Gulf or the Holy Mountain Gulf (Greek: Κόλπος Αγίου Όρους, romanizedKolpos Agiou Oros) is a gulf of the Thracian Sea, part of the northern Aegean Sea, in Chalkidiki, Greece.[1] It is bounded by Sithonia in the west, and Mount Athos in the east. The island of Ammouliani sits in the northeastern portion of the gulf along Mount Athos.[2] Many of the monasteries of Mount Athos lie along the shore of the Singitic Gulf.
