Koronisia island a calm paradise
Koronissia is a part of a unique natural beauty village-island in the center of the Amvrakikos Gulf. It has 167 permanent residents and is about 25 km from the city of Arta. It is accessible by road as it is connected with a strip of land with the mainland.
The taverns on the island are always supplied with fresh fish, since most of its inhabitants are engaged in fishing.
In Koronissia one can visit the important Byzantine monument, the 10th-century temple of Our Lady, with its beautiful wood-carved iconostasis and the 17th-century frescoes that have been preserved recently.
On June 12th, the memory of the protector of the area, Osiou Onoufriou, was honored in a monastery on the island of Koronissia, while on 8 September the Virgin is celebrated.
