Loutraki
The cosmopolitan area of Loutraki or "Pirea gi"(passage) is located West of the Isthmus of Corinth, by the northern end of the Corinthian Gulf, built on the foothills of the Gerania mountain range, along an enchanting 4km beach.
Located only 80km from the capital city of Athens, 80 km, and close to the most important archaeological sites of southern Greece (Epidaurus, Mycenae, Acropolis, Sounio, Olympia, Mystras, etc.), thanks to its temperate Mediterranean climate and the beautiful beaches, Loutraki represents the picture of a unique vacation proposition. Moreover, Loutraki is one of the most important sea resorts of Greece, with a plethora of hotels, restaurants, cafes and the Club Hotel Casino Loutraki, all contributing to the cosmopolitan character of Loutraki as a tourist destination. History
In antiquity a town called Thermae (Greek: Θερμαί, hot springs) existed on the site. In 1847, an announcement in Italy asserting the therapeutic benefits of bathing in the natural thermal spas found in Loutraki caused an influx of settlers in the surrounding areas, thereby creating modern Loutraki. In 1928 Loutraki was completely destroyed by earthquake and rebuilt. A large park was created by reclaiming sea area using the rubble of the fallen houses. Another strong earthquake hit the area in 1981 with less destructive effects. |
Name
The name Loutraki is a direct reference to the thermal spas of the region. It derives from the Loutro(n) (Greek: Λουτρό(ν)) that means bath, bath-house, spa or thermae. The Greek word loutro is directly translated as thermae in English, which was also the ancient name of the region.
