Alkyonides Rocks
 |
|
| [Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note |
The Alkyonides are also small rocky islands in the Corinthian Gulf very close to the coast of Attica, Peloponnese and Central Greece, taking their name from the mythological figures.
On February 24 1981, a powerful, magnitude 6.7 earthquake hits Athens, killing 16 people, injuring thousands and destroying several buildings, mostly in Corinth and the nearby towns of Loutraki, Kiato and Xylokastro. The epicentre of the earthquake was on these rocks. |
