About Katakolon

Katakolon, a tiny, unassuming port on the western Peloponnese coast, may not look like a typical cruise destination, but it’s the gateway to one of ancient Greece’s most revered sites—Olympia. Just a short drive inland, Olympia was once a major religious centre dedicated to Zeus and the birthplace of the original Olympic Games. Today, visitors can explore the atmospheric ruins, including ancient temples, training grounds, and the stadium where athletes once competed. If you choose to stay in Katakolon, expect a peaceful pace. The village itself is charming but quiet, with a handful of tavernas and cafés by the water’s edge, perfect for a leisurely Greek lunch as you watch fishing boats bob in the harbour and locals mend their nets. While it may lack major attractions, Katakolon's simplicity and coastal charm offer a relaxed contrast to the grandeur of Olympia, making it a pleasant stop for history lovers and wanderers alike.
