St. Athanasios Island, Greece - EUR €1,500,000

By Private Islands Magazine • Aug 11th, 2008 • Category: Private Islands for Sale

Few places possess such a palpable sense of history as the striking Greek Isles, spread like a constellation over the blue expanse of the Mediterranean. Something about the contrast between the arid, rocky islands, brilliant bleaching sunlight and impossibly deep hue of the water create an otherworldly atmosphere that gives the idea of nymphs and sprites and beautiful goddesses a strange believability. The tiny, almost perfectly round St. Athanasios sits in the Gulf of Corinth and has an incredible view of Mt. Delphi, home to the wise Oracle of ancient myth. A scattering of olive trees and shrubs are the only inhabitants, and a small sandy beach is found on the northern edge. With an unencumbered freehold title and an ideal location, imagine the incredible vacation residence possible on your own Grecian isle.
