Sv: Northwest Peloponnisos wild beauty - Kalogria beach
Great pictures, Kratylos!
I don't know why so few Swedes go to Peloponnese, but I know something about why so few Norwegians go (being one myself). One reason is when Norwegians (and I guess, all Scandinavians) think about a holiday in Greece, they think about the islands. I think many don't even consider going to the mainland, as they know absolutely nothing about it. So yes, probably some promotion could help. But there is also another reason, I think. Most of the tourists from Norway/Scandinavia travel to Greece with a charter company, and probably more than 90 % of their tours go to the island.
My husband and I fell in love with Peloponnese some years ago, and have been back every year since then. We have also travelled in Epiros, Sterea Ellada and Thessaly, and this year we will travel all over Macedonia. We think the mainland is much more interesting than the islands, but even so, we love the islands as well!
We have been in Patras, but never to Kalogria beach. But after seeing your pictures, we sure must go there!
