Loutraki is a classic Greek spa town on the Gulf of Corinth, with warm mineral springs, a long seafront and the Geraneia mountains rising right behind it. It makes an easy and rewarding day out from Vrachati. Here is what to see and do.

01

A spa town with ancient roots

Loutraki, whose name means 'little baths', has been known for its naturally warm mineral springs since antiquity. The waters have shaped the town for centuries and are still bottled and enjoyed today.

02

Relax at the thermal spa

After a day of sightseeing, a visit to a thermal spa is the perfect way to unwind. Loutraki offers thermal baths and wellness treatments that make it popular with visitors all year round.

03

Seafront promenade and beach

A long seafront promenade lined with cafés, restaurants and shops runs along the bay. The beach is mostly pebbly with clear water, ideal for a swim and a stroll in the evening.

04

Mount Geraneia and the views

The slopes of Mount Geraneia rise just behind the town. Drive or hike up for wide views over the Gulf of Corinth and the surrounding coastline.

05

Heraion of Perachora and Lake Vouliagmeni

A short drive from Loutraki, the ancient sanctuary of Hera at Cape Melagavi sits beside a small lighthouse and a quiet bay, close to the beautiful Lake Vouliagmeni. A lovely spot for photos and a peaceful swim.

06

Easy to combine with the Corinth Canal

Loutraki is only a few kilometres from the Corinth Canal, so you can see the canal in the morning and spend the rest of the day in the town. Ancient Corinth is also within easy reach.

07

Lively summer evenings

In season the town comes alive after sunset, with waterfront restaurants, bars and a casino for those who enjoy a night out.

08

Stay in Vrachati, visit Loutraki

From our holiday home in Vrachati, Loutraki is around 40 minutes away by car, so it is a perfect day trip. Come back to a quiet evening on the terrace.
