The settlement of Vathia in Lakonia in the Peloponnese region of Greece

Clinging to a steep mountain slope in Lakonia in the northeastern Peloponnese sits the unique settlement of Vathia.


This medieval village charms visitors with its iconic gray stone tower houses that appear stacked upon one another from afar. Get lost meandering through narrow alleyways and arched passages while appreciating the imposing architecture that once protected locals from pirates. 

Gaze out from the village perch to the sea below and the historic town of Porto Heli dotted along the coastline. Off the beaten path, Vathia’s distinct scenery and vistas encapsulate the remote beauty of the region.
