Katakolon, Greece, is a tiny sleepy port in the Peloponnese. The gateway to Olympia. Having visited Olympia in 2003, photos at http://public.fotki.com/Magwa/cruising/sanctuary_of_olympi/ , we just wandered around this delightful town. You can see it all in an hour, or less! Many souvenir shops and pavement cafes along the quay. There is a small beach on the opposite side of the pier to the town, and more beaches a short taxi ride away. - 13 Aug 2004
