Methana - Greece
Though part of the group of islands in the Argosaronic Gulf, the region of Methana is actually a peninsula that connects to the region of Argolida in the Eastern Peloponnese. It is separated by a narrow passage way called Steno.
Methana is a very popular destination for visitors to Greece, and is a place of immense beauty, with charming scenery and landscapes. There are several characteristics of the peninsula, including the volcano, the natural hot springs, and the gorgeous beaches with crystal clear waters. The entire region is one of pure tranquility and beauty.
The capital of Methana is Chora ( Hora ) which is a very picturesque town. There are also several other villages found all over the peninsula, including the lovely villages of Kounoupitsa, Vathi, Paleo Loutra, Kipseli, Agios Theodoros, Agios Nikolaos and Megalohori.
This wonderful grouping of villages, along with the exquisite scenery make Methana a very popular destination for holidays, and also for weekend breaks all year round.
Another popular region of Methana is the charming hamlet of Dritsaika, where visitors can enjoy a truly magical and inspiring view of the the Saronic Gulf. For those who enjoy the sea and beach, the most famous beach to visit in Methana is that of Almyra.
During the summer months, this beach is filled with visitors and locals, who have come to enjoy the cool blue waters, and the gorgeous beach. Following the path from the beach, you will be lead to the Cave of Pigeons, which was actually discovered by accident in the winter of 1973 by local residents.
The village of Vathi is a popular part of Methana to visit. Here one can see the crater of the volcano on the hill called Kameni.

Methana Part I: Cave & Volcano
A day trip to Methana in the Peloponnese Peninsula, Greece. We swam in Peristeri Cave and hiked up to the volcano. The picturesque harbor also has natural volcanic springs pouring into the water, hence the smell of sulfur (Methanio in Greek).

Apollon Hellas – Στα Μέθανα (At the port of Methana)
Το Apollon Hellas προσεγγίζει το λιμάνι των Μεθάνων ερχόμενο από Αίγινα. Το πλοίο πραγματοποιεί μια δεξιόστροφη μανούβρα και δένει ταχύτατα στο λιμάνι. Στην συνέχεια αναχωρεί για τον επόμενο προορισμό του, το λιμάνι του Πόρου. Ευχαριστούμε τη Saronic Ferries, τον Cpt κ. Μακαρατζή Παναγιώτη, τον Cpt κ. Μαυριανο Γιάννη και το πλήρωμα για την άριστη φιλοξενία στο πλοίο. Ίσαλος 2019!
Apollon Hellas docks at the port of Methana. The ship makes a fast clockwise maneuver and docks accurately at the port. Then the ship departs to its' next destination, Poros island. We would like to thank Saronic Ferries, Cpt. Mr. Makaratzis Panagiotis, Cpt. Mr. Mavrianos Giannis and the crew for the excellent hospitality on board. Isalos 2019!
