The village, in the municipality of Nea Propontida, is built on a hill overlooking the Thermaikos Gulf.

Most of the village is only a few minutes from the sea, and on a clear day, there is a wonderful view across the bay to Mount Olympus.

Flogita is a popular tourist resort, particularly in the summer, and as a result facilities and amusements have increased to cater for the influx.

Flogita is noted for its big sandy beach, roughly one kilometre long, and its paved promenade which is popular in the evenings for the customary "volta", or walk.

Along the sea front there are many tavernas, fast foods shops, confectioners, beach bar cafes, and nightclubs.
