Explore the Corinth Canal with Comfortable Transportation
The Corinth Canal is one of Greece’s most impressive engineering marvels and a must-see for travelers visiting the Peloponnese. Completed in 1893, this man-made canal connects the Gulf of Corinth with the Saronic Gulf, cutting through the narrow Isthmus of Corinth. Stretching 6.4 kilometers (4 miles) long, the canal’s steep limestone walls rise to 79 meters (259 feet), creating a dramatic and awe-inspiring sight.
Historically, the idea of cutting a canal through the isthmus dates back to ancient times, with attempts by rulers such as Periander and Emperor Nero. However, it was not until the 19th century that the project was successfully completed. Today, visitors can view the canal from various vantage points or even enjoy a boat tour through its narrow passage. Watching ships navigate the canal is a unique experience that highlights the strategic importance of this historic waterway.
