Laconia

Lakonia is paradise on Earth. It is as if God decided to bestow on this southernmost point of mainland Europe a little splash of every colour in nature’s palette. With spell-binding Mount Taygetus, the highest mountain in the Peloponnese, and Mount Parnon too, captivatingly beautiful sandy beaches by crystal clear waters, picturesque little harbours, the valley of the river Evrotas, the ‘Rock’ of  Monemvasia, spectacular gorges, caves of unsurpassed beauty, rare animal habitats and the wild countryside of Mani…Lakonia is the place where you can enjoy both mountain and sea, feel numerous monuments of bygone times, sense the course of civilisation from Neanderthal times to the present day, allow the charm of walled cities to envelope you, go on pilgrimages to monasteries hidden in places of unparalleled  beauty. This is where nature, history, myth and reality unite to create a unique whole bursting with contrasts. Justifiably regarded as the ultimate tourist destination, Laconia is a place everyone needs to experience at least once…
