This Corinth Canal Boat Tour it’s not just a cruise — it’s a passage through ancient engineering, sheer cliffs, and silence that echoes with history.
It takes you along one of the world’s narrowest waterways, carved through rock and legend.
No postcards can prepare you for the moment you pass between walls that touch the sky.
The Corinth Canal: A Marvel of Engineering & History
The Corinth Canal was completed in 1893, after centuries of attempts to connect the Saronic Gulf with the Gulf of Corinth. With a width of just 24 meters, the canal is so narrow that only small and medium-sized vessels can pass through.
Quick Facts about the Corinth Canal:
✔ Length: 6.3 kilometers (3.9 miles)
✔ Depth: 8 meters (26 feet)
✔ Cliffs: 78 meters (256 feet) high
✔ Daily traffic: Up to 30 vessels per day
Originally envisioned by Periander, the ancient ruler of Corinth, and later planned by Julius Caesar and Emperor Nero, the canal was finally completed in the late 19th century. Today, it remains one of Greece’s most iconic landmarks and a popular destination for travelers worldwide.

Tour Reviews
We did the sunset cruise with jazz music. Magical. The view, the music, and the atmosphere — one of our top travel memories.
Way beyond my expectations, the cliffs, the silence, the stories. Just stunning
Simple, beautiful, powerful. I had chills the moment we entered the canal. I just wish it lasted a bit longer!
