About Achaia
Εκτός όμως από το ένδοξο παρελθόν της η Αχαΐα προσφέρει στον επισκέπτη της πληθώρα επιλογών δραστηριοτήτων. Διαθέτει πανέμορφες πόλεις, που φημίζονται για την ΄΄ζωντάνια΄΄ τους, υπέροχα παραθεριστικά θέρετρα με ανεπτυγμένες τουριστικές υποδομές τόσο για καλοκαιρινές διακοπές όσο και για χειμερινές εξορμήσεις.
Τι να πρωτοθαυμάσει κανείς κατά την περιήγησή του στην Αχαΐα; Την Πάτρα, την γοητευτική πρωτεύουσα με τις άπειρες επιλογές διασκέδασης και όχι μόνο; Το Αίγιο με τις υπέροχες ακτές του; Την Ακράτα που έχει εξελιχθεί σε δημοφιλή καλοκαιρινό προορισμό; Τα ιστορικά Καλάβρυτα; Είναι τόσα πολλά τα μέρη που αξίζει να επισκεφθεί κανείς και να γνωρίσει την ιστορία τους, τις φυσικές καλλονές τους και να διασκεδάσει.
Η Αχαΐα συνορεύει ανατολικά με τον νομό Κορινθίας, νότια με τον νομό Αρκαδίας, δυτικά με τον νομό Ηλείας και βόρεια βρέχεται από τον Πατραϊκό και τον Κορινθιακό κόλπο.
Βρίσκεται σε μια ιδιαίτερα προνομιακή γεωγραφική θέση, καθώς το λιμάνι της Πάτρας έχει σύνδεση με την γειτονική Ιταλία και τα νησιά του Ιονίου.
