About Antikyra
Antikyra is a village. Location: Distomo-Arachova-Antikyra, Nomós Voiotías. Population: 1,529. Elevation: 44 m.
Antikyra or Anticyra (Greek: Αντίκυρα) is a port on the west coast of the Gulf of Antikyra named after it. That gulf is a north-coast bay of the Gulf of Corinth. The settlement was made basically on a floor and beach fringing the northeast side of the mountainous Desfina Peninsula. Inscriptional evidence in the region proves that it has been continuous under the same name since classical Greece.
