Xylokastro in Corinthia can be found roughly halfway between Athens and Patras, embraced by the Corinthian Gulf and surrounded by mountainous beauty. Although it hardly needs an introduction, given its frequent spotlight in holiday and tourism news, one could say that this place is among the most beautiful destinations or stopovers for travelers, not only from nearby urban centers but also from more distant areas of Greece and abroad.
Strollers, swimmers, boats, visitors enjoying their coffee or savoring the most delicious local products are some of the sights you’ll encounter, especially on sunny days. But what happens when strong winds visit us? Then you will see the sea fill with sails. Not from ships, of course, but from skilled water athletes who rush to make the most of the wind’s direction, accompanied by their sporting equipment and the waves.
The beautiful pine forest, the tavernas, our coffee and sweets, the impressive marina, and countless other options in our small town are what make many people choose “Xylokastro” every year for their summer and winter holidays or excursions.
