B	Bill Barekas on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A well preserved castle with sea around it. The location includes a small church, a external theater and a large area suitable for large concerts. There is also beach next to it. The castle offers a magnificent view of the Rio Antirio bridge and the surrounding area.
L	Louis Mulot on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Nice ottoman and Venetian castle. Great view to the bridge and the sea.
Y	Y.H. on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Rio Castle (, known also as the Castel of Moria, is avery well preserved fortress, locatd on the south-east side of Rio–Antirrio Bridge. It was built by Sultan Vayazit II in 1499 on the ruins of the ancient temple of Poseidon and held by the Ottomans along a period of few hundreds of years and was used most of the time as a prison. If you have time, it is nice place to visit and to enjoy the beauty of the fortress as well as the remarkble view of the Rio–Antirrio Bridge.
A	Ann Bear on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We were just driving around looking for a vantage point to view the bridge when we stumbled across this castle. Just follow the signs to the ferry and park right outside the castle. For just 2 euros you can enter a huge site with well preserved ancient buildings from which one has stunning views of the bridge. An exciting blend of old and new architecture. Fabulous.
S	Stijn Cleynhens on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ All the indoor parts and towers are closed off. For the rest there's not much to see other than the view of the bridge. Not worth the entrance fee imho.
