Argosaronikos islands<\/h3><\/div>

The complex of Argosaronikos islands is located between Attica and the eastern coasts of Peloponnese. It consists of the islands of the Argolic and the Saronic Gulf.<\/p>\n

The Saronic Gulf lies between Cape Sounio and Skyllai, has a width of 27 miles and its entrance from the island of Velvina to Elefsina is 37 miles long.<\/p>\n

Inside the Saronic Gulf are the islands of Poros<\/a>, Aegina<\/a>, Salamina<\/a>, Agistri<\/a> and other smaller islands and rocky islands, the Methana peninsula, the port of Piraeus and the bay of Elefsina. On its coasts are beautiful locations and suburbs.<\/p>\n

In the Argolic gulf are the islands of Hydra<\/a>, Spetses <\/a>and Dokos.<\/p>\n

Due to their proximity to Attica they are popular destinations and very well organized.<\/p>\n

The islands have been inhabited since prehistoric times and have a long history. Their development was mainly related to shipping and commerce. Their contribution to the revolution of 1821 was decisive.<\/p>\n<\/div>
