Katakolon is a picturesque port in the western Peloponnese, located 20 km from Ancient Olympia. It is a popular tourist destination, as it combines traditional colour with a cosmopolitan aura.
The entrance of the port is impressive, as it is dominated by the old raisin warehouses, which have been restored and converted into cafes and taverns. The raisin warehouses give the harbour a special colour and create an atmosphere of nostalgia.
