Ermioni Guide

Ermioni Ferry Port

With a shoreline of pebbled beaches lining a narrow inlet of the electric blue waters of the warm Aegean Sea, the small seaside town of Ermioni is an undoubted gem studding the south-eastern coast of Greece. Found on the historic Argolid Peninsula, site of one of the first major settlements in the classical era of Greece, Ermioni is surrounded on three-sides by hilly Mediterranean scrubland and groves of blossoming olive trees. Extending from the east of town is a narrow promontory tipped by the lush pine forest of Bisti Grove (‘Bisti,’ appropriately meaning ‘tail’ in Greek). Though small, this stretch of land is steeped in history, evident in the Venetian walls that line the coast and the ancient vestiges of a temple built to worship the deity Poseidon found near the entrance to the grove. The port of Ermioni is a quaint marina formed of two piers that project into the Aegean Sea. Ferries entering the harbour dock at a designated section of the larger pier, just beside a small undercover waiting terminal. There are no facilities in the terminal itself, though the promenade that runs perpendicular to the pier is crammed with restaurants, cafes and a few shops selling refreshments. Ermioni is a rural town with very few transport links. The town consists mainly of labyrinthine residential streets and as such does not have a local bus service or train station, though a bus does run from Athens airport to the nearby village of Kranidi. Driving to the port can prove difficult too, with just two twisting roads leading in and out of town and the nearest major motorway over 60-miles away. Only one route currently operates from the port. A Hellenic Seaways service sails around the Argolid Peninsula before heading north along the Mediterranean to the port of Piraeus; a major port city just 5-miles from the capital of Athens. It’s a relatively short trip that leaves Ermioni a number of times each day.


Porto Heli Guide

Porto Heli Ferry Port

Situated on the south-eastern part of Greece, Porto Heli is one of the summer resorts residing in the municipality of Ermionida. The ferry routes departing the port are to other coastal towns belonging to Greece, ranging from ten minutes to just under three hours.

What is there to do in Porto Heli?

Predominantly known as an escape for the people of Athens, Porto Heli has also become a haven for families hoping for a relaxing holiday under the sun. Secluded beaches, luxurious hotels and warm, welcoming villages make Porto Heli one of the fastest growing resorts in Greece. There is enough to keep you entertained for the entirety of a family holiday, yet the town is also popular due to its close proximity to neighbouring tourist resorts; many dock their private yachts at the harbour for a couple of days before exploring further into the Argolic Gulf. Much like any port town, the harbour is the main attraction; the surrounding streets are lined with quaint shops, friendly cafes and restaurants serving seafood fresh from the waters. After wandering through the narrow passageways, you’ll step onto the ancient ruins of the city of Alieon, which showcases the architectural history that is synonymous with the region.

How do you get around Porto Heli?

The town is very small so it is possible to cover much of it by foot.
