Loutraki lies on the Gulf of Corinth beneath the Geraneia mountains. Its thermal springs surface close to the shore, feeding the town's spa and its famous bottled mineral water.

Why visit
Bathing here is coastal rather than alpine: a warm mineral spa a few steps from a pebble beach, in a town that has traded on its water since Roman times.
