About the area
Around a 4 hour flight from the UK takes you to Messinia, in the south-west corner of Greece’s Peloponnese region. The area is known for its spectacular coastline, with some of the best beaches in the whole of the country, most famously Voidokillia, which attracts thousands of visitors every month. Further inland, there are miles of unspoiled countryside here, mountains, gorges, forests and lagoons to explore, as well as traditional towns and villages dotted in between.
