• The natural beauty of Messinia with the indented shores, sandy beaches, forested
mountains and fertile valleys, coexists with significant archaeological monuments.
• Kalamata, the capital and central port of Messinia, is located at the site of ancient
Farai. Following independence from the Turks and thanks to the exploitation of the
fertile Messinian lands (producing olive oil, raisins, figs etc), it developed into a
wealthy urban centre and a significant port. It is located 238 km SW of Athens.
