Once you have seen the sights of Athens, it is a great idea to escape to rural Greece, where the pace of life is slower and the natural surroundings are spectacular. The good thing is that you don’t need to go far to find a little piece of paradise. Porto Heli, on the Peloponnese mainland, is only a 3-hour drive away from Athens.
There are many reasons why this area is so special:
- It is easy to get to by road, sea, or air (helicopter)
- It is a region of outstanding natural beauty
- It is a small yet cosmopolitan destination for selective holidaymakers
- It is just a short boat ride away from the islands of Spetses, Hydra, and Poros
- It is a great base from which to explore the archaeological sites of Epidavros, Mycenae, Troizina, and Tiryns
- It has fabulous beaches hidden along its verdant coastline
- It is a hub for watersports, snorkeling, and diving
- It boasts some of the most luxurious rental villas in Greece
Sounds too good to be true? Porto Heli is a magical place where you can swim in sparkling waters, walk through pine forests, experience delicious local cuisine, and discover the true meaning of a Greek vacation blessed by sun and sea!
