Posted by The isthmus of Corinth separates mainland Greece from the Peloponnese, as you can see in the map.
Ships coming from the nortwest exit at the southeastern end of the isthmus, at the small town of Isthmia.
This is where I was positioned when I took the photos of this post. The red circle in the map below indicates the location of the small bridge that enables one vehicle to cross in each direction. The blue circle indicates my exact location at a tavern on the mainland side.
This is the view across the isthmus. A taverna on the Pelopennesian side.
The steel bridge is submerged when a ship crosses, as we will see in the photos below.
You can see the bridge has been submerged.
With the bridge fully submerged, we now wait for the ship to cross. The pilot comes first.
Followed by the ship, which is obviously without any cargo.
The crossing of the cargo vessel was followed by a yacht.
Bon Voyage!
