Lake Vouliagmeni of Corinth

A lake of salty water with much prehistory

The Vouliagmeni lake is in Greece, in the north of the Peloponnese region, 98 km from Athens and 23 KM from Corinth.

The lagoon is 2 km long by 1km wide. And a depth of up to 40m.

It is connected to the sea by a 6 meter wide channel, with a strong current, fish and sea urchins.

Do not confuse it with another Vouliagmeni lake, 20km south of Athens, which is basically a cenote with thermal waters…

But we will talk about that at another time…

Multiple human occupation remains have been found from the 3rd to the 2nd millennium BC.

Nowadays, it is the favorite beach of the inhabitants of Loutraki, a seaside town about 16km to the east.
