The 10 Best Bodies of Water in Peloponnese, Greece

July 29, 2021 Joeann Galban

The Peloponnese (/ˈpɛləpəˌniːz/) or Peloponnesus (/ˌpɛləpəˈniːsəs/; Greek: Πελοπόννησος, Pelopónnēsos) is a peninsula and geographic region in southern Greece. It is separated from the central part of the country by the Isthmus and Gulf of Corinth. During the late Middle Ages and the Ottoman era, the peninsula was known as the Morea (Greek: Μωρέας), a name still in colloquial use in its demotic form (Μωριάς).

Enjoy the silence and calmness of the view. There is a small church near the lake and only a few hundred meters away, you will find a beautiful old monastery, the monastery of St. George.

Wonderful wooded walk with monasteries and ancient sites along the fast flowing river. Easier route is downhill from Dimitsana - and ideally getting a taxi back.

Corinth Canal

Reviewed By KellieSpark - Lara, Australia

This was a bucket list item for me due to my studies - and it did not let me down at all. The history and idea of a mans insight behind this feat of engineering and the human spirit is wonderful and to stand and admire it even more so. Even if you are not history mad - it is worth the stop to consider just what went into this canal and the impact that it has had on the region. Of course there is also some cute little souvenier shops, a great cafe with free toilets that are clean and well maintained. There is a little kebab shop to the very right of the main building (looking at it from the car park) dont miss trying a plate of the chicken kebabs, totally delicious....even if you have just stuffed breakfast down they are a must LOL.

Limni Vouliagmeni

Reviewed By TasosAnth - Athens, Greece

It is placed around 15 km away from the center of Loutraki. Skipping the fact that the road is difficult and is hard to find concerning the luck of accurate signs you arrive in a plce beyond fantasy. Parking there all around the area is a little bit hard as there are not many parking spots and roads are very narrow. All around the lake there are one beach bar and several taverns which ofcourse have higher prices. The waters are crystal clear and the beach is nice and clean. Better should be kept so beautiful and clean and not ruined by the masses. Around the lake there are hundreds of beautiful trees which makes the scenery even better and cooler during summer months. Everyone should visit the spot but respect it and my opinion this area would be better not during high season
