Transportation
Transportation infrastructure to the Peloponnese is good and is being
continuously upgraded. All major cities are interconnected and connected to
Athens with fast new roads, while travelling with the wonderful little
trains, that service this region, would be a joy. You can fly to Kalamata,
Sparta and the island of Kythira from Athens on "shuttle" services. These
airports are open during the summer for Charter Flights booked by various
holiday companies from all over Europe. Several resorts and towns in the
eastern coast of the Peloponnese are connected with boats and hydrofoils to
Piraeus, while the ports of Kyllini and Patras on the western coast offer
rides to the Ionian islands. Patras is also the main sea route, for people
and freight, connecting Greece to Italy and Western Europe.
