Greece - 5 Day Tour: Day 1 - Nafplio (Short stop)

After the visit to Epidaurus ( the Ancient theatre and the Museum), our next stop is Nafplio.

Nafplio is a seaport town in the Peloponnese in Greece that has expanded up the hillsides near the north end of the Argolic Gulf.



Nafplio enjoys a very sunny and mild climate, even by Greek standards, and as a consequence has become a popular day or weekend road-trip destination for Athenians in wintertime.

Nafplio is a port, with fishing and transport ongoing, although the primary source of local employment currently is tourism, with two beaches on the other side of the peninsula from the main body of the town and a large amount of local accommodation.

Here are some pictures of this city.
