Gythion

Gythion

Gythion is located in middle south of Peloponese at the center of the Laconian Gulf. It is a lively, charming little harbor town. The most of its houses are two-or three- storey new-classical mansions, stuck to the steep side of the Mt. Koumaros. A long sea-side promenade, the colourful fishing boats, the narrow streets and stairways produce the typical Greek environment which fascinates every visitor.
