From the mountains of Corinthia you can see two seas, the Corinthian Gulf and the Saronic Gulf, and on a clear day the peaks of Central Greece across the water. In this list you will find places in our guide recorded for their views: Angelokastro and Mount Oligyrtos in the uplands, the acropolis of Ancient Titane above the Asopos valley, Ancient Phlius among the vineyards, the Melagkavi lighthouse at the tip of Perachora and Kalamia beach in Loutraki. Some need a walk or a drive on a mountain road, while others are a few metres from the car. The view is best early in the morning or late in the afternoon, when the light is low and the air is clear. Bring water and something warm for the higher spots.
