The show will take place in the town of Methana where visitors can visit and admire professional and private yachts as well as fishing boats and admire both their exterior and interior.

Τhe boat show was first introduced to the public last year thanks to the joint effort of the Traditional Boat Association of Greece and the Hellenic Professional Yacht Owners Association.

“This event will bring back to life the boat builders of the past, the history of the ‘wooden walls’ of Greece, the boatyards, and the love for the preservation and maintenance of these unique vessels none of which is like the other,” the Traditional Boat Association of Greece said on its website.

The 2nd Greek Traditional Boat Show is held under the aegis of Methana Town Administration and the Greek National Tourism Organization (GNTO).
