Full Description & Details
Tiros Marina is a small harbour on the Greek coast of the Aegean Sea, located in the town of Thyros (also spelled Tiros) in the Peloponnese region. The marina sits at the edge of Paralia, the coastal part of the town, with the surrounding area known for its pebble beaches and clear water. The setting is low-key and traditional, with the town's tavernas and rooms-to-let within easy walking distance.
The marina itself is compact, suited to smaller craft, and offers a maximum depth of 6 metres with a length overall limit of 60 metres. It is primarily a summer destination, with the season running from late spring through early autumn. The harbour provides basic amenities including water and a restaurant, and overnight stays are permitted.
For a skipper looking for a quiet stop on the eastern coast of the Peloponnese, Tiros offers a simple, functional base rather than a full-service marina.
How to get there
Approaching Tiros Marina from the sea, the harbour is located on the eastern shore of the Peloponnese, roughly 2 nautical miles south of the town of Leonidio. The entrance is straightforward in settled weather, with no significant offshore hazards, but local knowledge is advised as the harbour is small and the approach can be affected by the prevailing summer northerly winds. There is no dedicated VHF channel listed for the marina; contact is typically made by phone or by hailing on the local working channel.
The nearest airport is Kalamata International Airport, about 100 kilometres to the southwest, with Athens International Airport approximately 200 kilometres to the northeast. By road, Tiros is accessible via the Greek national road network, with the town of Leonidio providing the nearest major services and bus connections.
