Trizonia

This is the only inhabited island in the Gulf of Corinth - 250 souls live here in peace and quiet as there are no cars or motorbikes.  Trizonia is about 800m off the coast and a Caique ( traditional wooden boat) ferries people and goods to and fro Xania on the mainland.  The tiny marina is sheltered behind the village and seems to be full of abandoned yachts including a sunken ketch right off one of the pontoons, you can see the two masts sticking out of the water:

On the quay three small tavernas where local cats make a reasonable living:
Even geese get into the fray:


And the view across to Xania from the tavern where we whiled away an hour and a couple of Ouzos:
 
Had our first swim here, just off to the left - water gin clear and cold.
