To get to Elafonissos from Athens you have to turn south, enter the Peloponnese after you cross the Isthmus of Corinth,
climb the mountains of Arcadia, continue south to Laconia and the valley of Sparta, and before Cape Tainaron (one of the ancient Gates to Hades)
stop at the mouth of the bay of Neapolis. A ferry will appear and take you over to the island for 10 coins.
Skip the harbour head for Simos Beach and mingle with the beautiful people.
