Tolo, Nafplio
one of the most beautiful seaside destinations in Argolis
Tolo is one of the most popular summer destinations in the Peloponnese, built amphitheatrically on the picturesque bay of Argolis. With panoramic views of the small islets Romvi, Koronisi and Daskalio, it combines natural beauty, historical interest and modern tourism infrastructure.
The area has a long history dating back to antiquity. The bay of Tolo and the neighbouring Ancient Asini are mentioned in the Homeric epics, while after the founding of the Greek state, Cretan refugees settled here, shaping the modern village.
