Historic Island opposite the temple of Sounion
Patroklos Island, also locally known as Gaidouronisi (Donkey Island) is located opposite Cape Sounion, only 5 kms from the famous temple of Sounion, and approximately 60 kms from Athens. Patroklos Island is approximately 1,250 metres (2/3's of a mile) from the Attica mainland. The island is about 20 minutes from Athens International Airport and only 10 minutes from the touristic port of Lavrion. In ancient times the island was known as Patroklou Charax or Kopros.
One side of the island is flat, has good soil, with 5,000 olive trees and numerous pine trees. There are about 150 goats that graze on the island. Two small piers service Patroklos, allowing small craft to berth, one on the NNW side near the guards quarters and the second is located on the NNE side of the island. There are large sandy beaches along the clean surrounding waters which are rich in fish. The present owners have had the relevant microbiological analysis undertaken by the State General Chemistry Laboratory.
Emenent investors such as Donatella Versace, representatives of an Israeli company as well as an investment fund from the United Arab Emitates have shown interest in purchasing this small Greek island up to now. Major purpose of all of the above mentioned investors was the construction of luxury hotels, spa installations, golf course, heli-pad, marina and even a casino.
