Drepano is a small town located in the northeastern part of Peloponnese, in the province of Argolida. It is located in the center of Mycenaean culture.

This area is known as a basin for growing orange and mandarin fruit due to the prevailing microclimate. Groves with olive, pistachio and pomegranate trees can also be found in the area.

The coastal part of this town is Drepano-Plaka. It is an ideal place to relax away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. This place is not touched by civilization yet. From spring to early autumn, tourists willingly come here wanting both to relax and visit the sights nearby.

Tourists can enjoy crystal-clear water, a sand and shingle beach, with a child-friendly entrance to the sea. The coastline stretching over a length of about 3 km is ideal for long walks along the sea shore. It runs from the Drepano area to the ruins of ancient Asini.

The second part of the beach – running towards the ruins of ancient Asini – is more intimate, close to nature. Private apartments are located here. Some of them are rented to tourists.

Walking the beach you can reach the ruins of ancient Asini. In Mycenaean times, an important city of Assine existed here. In 740 B.C.E. (or in 700) it was destroyed by the jealous inhabitants of the then powerful Argos city. It was supposed to be revenge for the alliance of the city’s inhabitants with Sparta. During the Hellenistic period it was rebuilt.

Currently, you can see the ruins of the citadel and the remains of Mycenaean graves here. Archaeological research was started in 1922-30 by a Swedish group of archaeologists. They were resumed in 1970 by Greek archaeologists. Many interesting objects have been found that can be seen in the museum.

This place was a source of inspiration for the Greek poet – Georgios Seferis, a Nobel laureate. In the poem “The King of Assini” describes the desolation of the ancient city in a picturesque way. He describes this place as the most beautiful rock wall on the sea shore, decorated with the remnants of the distant past.
