Lake Volvi (Greek: Λίμνη Βόλβη - Límni Vólvi) is located at the root of the Chalkidiki peninsula, in the Thessaloniki regional unit of Greece. It is the second largest lake in the country at 12 miles (19 km) length and 6 or 8 miles (9.7 or 12.9 km) width. The area is 68 km² and the depth is 20 m. It is located east of Lake Koroneia (Lake Langadas).
The Via Egnatia Roman road runs along the northern shore of the lake, while a more ancient road ran along its southern one. On its east is the narrow valley of Rentina, also known as the "Macedonian Tempe". The municipalities of Volvi and Langadas have shoreline on the lake.
