The Verdict
Worth an overnight for a quiet, well-preserved harbour town, especially as a stop between Athens and Delphi or Nafpaktos.
Why go
The two harbours are lined with neoclassical captains' houses, many still private homes, giving the town a lived-in feel rather than a museum one. It's a good counterpoint to Delphi's crowds, a half hour away, with waterfront tavernas and quiet walks along the headland pine groves. Not a beach town, but a good base for slow mornings.
Understand the place
A maritime town on the Gulf of Corinth with stone sea captains' houses around a sheltered double harbour, built on 19th-century shipping wealth.
