Porto Cheli-Chinitsa
Chinitsa (meaning 'small goose') sits tucked between the mainland and a small islet just a short sail from the lively resort town of Porto Cheli, making it one of the most sought-after anchorages in the Argolic Gulf. You'll drop anchor in well-sheltered waters with a mostly sandy bottom, surrounded by pine-covered slopes that give it a quietly secluded feel despite its popularity. Porto Cheli's tavernas, shops, and nightlife are easily reached by dinghy if you want a dose of civilization.
