Karathona Climbing Crags
37° 32.5′ N · 22° 49.8′ E
Limestone sport-climbing sectors rise straight out of the Arvanitia–Karathona coastline — Neraki, Mythology, Kori, Anatole and the two Karathona sectors — so you can climb in the morning and swim off the rocks at noon.
Practical
Coordinate is Karathona sector A as mapped in OSM; other mapped crags: Neraki (37.5527, 22.8077), Mythology (37.5525, 22.8092), Kori (37.5528, 22.8066), Anatole (37.5492, 22.8150) and the Akronafplia sea cliffs. Greeka notes the cliffs over Karathona are popular with climbers and that gear can be hired locally. Bring your own rope and quickdraws; check route conditions locally. Rockfall can close the Arvanitia promenade.
