PORTO
HELI is situated 7 klm south of Kranidi. Its port is one
of the safest ports of the area and it is ideal for
swimming and water sports. The beaches in Porto Heli can
offer relaxation to the visitor.
In an area south of Portoheli there are remnants of the
ancient city of Halieis. This sunken city is unique in the
Greek Archaeology because it has the characteristics of a
city of the classical era.
Also what makes the city of Halieis very special is the
abundance of the findings like pottery, coins, jewellery
and statues.
Another characteristic of the city is the preservation and
the study of the sunken houses, the temple of Apollo, the
cemetery, the fortifications and the acropolis of Halieis,
which lies 300 meters ashore.
