Skala

The landscape around Skala is a low, intensively cultivated plain along the lower Eurotas River, which has shaped both the town’s layout and its agricultural economy. Set in Laconia in the southeastern Peloponnese, Skala is the administrative centre of the Municipality of Evrotas and a local hub for communities across the river plain. Citrus orchards and olive groves define much of the surrounding countryside, while the Eurotas continues south towards the Laconian Gulf. Skala has the open, working character of a market town rooted in farming and everyday local life, rather than that of the stone-built upland settlements found elsewhere in the Peloponnese.
