The Corinth Canal on our sailboat! | The most expensive shortcut in the world - is it worth it? #37

The Corinth Canal - on our sailboat! The most expensive canal per mile in the world - is it worth it?

In July 2022 after sheltering from the winds in a rickety Corinth harbour we took our sailboat through the Corinth Canal, a 4 mile shortcut from the Ionian to the Aegean Sea which bypasses the long journey around the bottom of the Peloponnese.

Having been shut since the beginning of 2021, after a major landslide, it opened in July 2022 for just 4 months before shutting again in October 2022 - and we were lucky enough to transit through before it closed. It is due to reopen sometime in 2023 once more remedial works have been completed.

Come aboard our sailboat with us for this “once in a lifetime” trip.
