The Peloponnese is one of the most beautiful and historic regions of Greece, a vast and mountainous peninsula connected to the mainland by a narrow isthmus. Rich in ancient wonders, dramatic scenery and unspoilt coastline, it offers a cruising ground of remarkable depth, where classical history meets timeless natural beauty.
This is the cradle of ancient Greek civilisation, home to legendary sites such as Olympia, Mycenae, Epidaurus and the mighty fortresses of the Mani. Its coastline is dotted with beautiful Venetian towns, medieval castles and quiet fishing villages, each steeped in centuries of history.
The Peloponnese offers a wonderfully varied coastline of dramatic capes, sheltered bays and clear water, from the elegant harbour of Nafplio to the dramatic beauty of the wild Mani peninsula. Away from the busier islands, it retains a genuinely authentic and unspoilt character.
Ashore, the region rewards exploration with olive groves, vineyards, mountain villages and some of the finest ancient sites in the world. Its cuisine, hospitality and natural beauty are among the very best in Greece.
With its ancient wonders, dramatic coastline and authentic charm, the Peloponnese is one of the most rewarding regions to explore in Greece. Guests can anchor beneath Venetian castles, visit legendary ancient sites and enjoy the unspoilt beauty of this majestic peninsula.
