Corinth Canal crossing

The Corinth Canal is a 6km canal that connects the Gulf of Corinth with the Saronic Gulf in the Aegean Sea and separates the Peloponnese from the Greek mainland. Construction was completed in 1893, by the same team that went on to build the Canal of Suez (completed in 1869). Several rulers in antiquity dreamed of digging a cutting through the Isthmus.

Remnants of the Diolkos are also visible at the Western entrance of the canal. The story of the Diolkos is fascinating and well worth watching:

At Daphne’s Club we propose that you pass through the Canal by sailing boat, by motorboat or that you join a small cruise boat which regularly passes through the canal.
