Geography,
Demography & Economy

Four boroughs comprise the administration of Laconia: Lacedaemon Borough with its capital Sparta, Gytheion Borough with its capital Gytheio, Epidavrou Limiras with its capital Molaoi, Itilo with its capital Areopolis.

Laconia’s population reaches 100,000 people, a significant percentage of which is the “blood donor” of the agricultural economy. Laconia’s land is renowned for its produce, most of all for its olive oil, which is of exceptional quality known worldwide, its citrus produce (oranges, tangerines, lemons), its farm produce (tomatoes, peppers, aubergines), its honey and its wines.

The morphology of its land offers variety to the landscape, enabling the visitor to enjoy tall mountain ranges, such as Taygetos, with the highest peak in Peloponnese (2.407m) and Parnon (1.961 m), along with the rich plains around Evrotas River, the rocky coastline of Mani and the sandy expanses in the coastline of southeastern Laconia. Laconia’s climate is temperate with minor local changes. Hot summers with cooling winds in the highland, mild autumn and winter, and a unique spring landscape make up its main characteristics.
