The North Peloponnese is the name given to the area of the north coast from Patras across to Loutra, the Isthmus of Corinth to Loutraki and the north coast of the Corinthian Gulf. Contrary to what you may have heard, the water of the Corinthian Gulf is clean and clear. Its geographical position makes it ideal for exploring ancient sites as well as other places of interests. Delphi, the Ossios monastery, the Epidaurus Theatre and many other cultural sights are in close vicinity. Corinth is one hour from Athens by car.
