Harbour

  Bali was the seaport for the classical city of Axos, but no physical evidence remains. There is a small fishing harbour there now.

ASTALI (Ancient city) GEROPOTAMOS
The ancient site has been identified with the modern village of Bali (some scholars, though, locate the ancient Astali, the seaport of the ancient Axou, at the Fodele bay).
