What it is

Loutraki has been Greece's spa town for a hundred years, and its thermal waters were known from Antiquity. The municipal spa, Loutraki Thermal Spa, has two heated indoor pools with waterfalls and jets, a cold-water pool, another outdoor pool with a bar, single and double hydrotherapy cabins, a sauna and hammam, as well as massages and treatments. You can also try Loutraki's water, which is drunk as a cure.

Getting there

It is at Georgiou Lekka 24, in the centre of Loutraki, a stroll from the sea. The tourism body does not publish prices or opening hours: call +30 27440 62186 or check its website before you go. A plan that works in winter: the canal in the morning, Ancient Corinth and the afternoon in the hot water.

Tips

  • Bring a cap and flip-flops Ask when you call what they require in the pools.

Opening hours and prices can change: check them before you go.
