Greek mainland Highlights

The freedom of the sea

The freedom of the sea

One of the many pleasures of a stay in Porto Heli is the area's varied coastline, whose bays and beaches tantalise with possibilities. The best way to enjoy them is to hire a boat for a day or two. There is an added bonus too: in about 15 minutes, you can sail over to the intriguing island of Spetses and explore that as well. Two birds with one stone.

Ebb and flow

Ebb and flow

Better known by some by its Venetian name, Negroponte, Evia's capital, Chalcis, is home to an intriguing aquatic phenomenon. A slender, 40m-wide channel separates Evia from the mainland and when the tide changes there is a moment of eerie stillness before the water suddenly whirls, swirls and rushes at high speed in the opposite direction.

Engineering that made an island

Engineering that made an island

In 1893, after some 1,800 years in the making (the Emperor Nero had tried in 67 CE), the Corinth Canal was completed. At 6.4km long, and linking the Gulf of Corinth with the Saronic Gulf just west of Athens, it created a de facto island out of the Peloponnese. It’s quite a sight to behold and great fun to sail along if you get the chance.
