Koroni, 26 km from Villa FINIKI, is a cozy picturesque harbor town on the bay of Messinia, an authentic Greek picturesque town.

Koroni is built on the slopes of a hill on a peninsula.
When you arrive in Koroni, you will be the first to see the colossal Koroni castle . The cobbled streets here carry steeply upwards.
Along the quay are many cozy restaurants and cafeterias and a nice boulevard. Ideal for a tasty fish lunch. It is more than worthwhile to walk through the narrow streets and alleys of Koroni and look at the colorful houses with the beautiful balconies.

At the end of the boulevard is the fishing port with a long pier in the sea.
From the pier there is a beautiful view of the coastline and the Taygetos Mountains . Next to the fishing harbor there is a small shipyard and behind the boulevard there is a square with a children’s playground. Around the square are old mansions and palm trees.

To the right of the fortress is the long Zaga (or Zanga) beach , favorite with windsurfers because of the favorable south wind. The Zaga beach is a long and wide sandy beach with shady trees.
