- Isthmus of Corinth - The Isthmus of Corinth is a slender land bridge linking Central Greece with the Peloponnese. The canal carved through it connects the Saronic Gulf with the Gulf of Corinth. Spanning approximately 6 kilometers, its narrowest section is where the Corinth Canal was constructed (1880-1893). Historically strategic, a wall was erected here in ancient times (end of the 5th century BC) and remained until the Byzantine era (Hexamilion).
Our journey begins at the impressive Corinth Canal, located in the Peloponnese, the southern peninsula of Greece. This canal links the Saronic and Corinthian Gulfs in the Aegean Sea.
