The “Frozen Waves”: A special phenomenon in Attica

Argosaronic Islands - The images you will see below, in the video of the haanity channel of Youtube are really special and not at all ordinary. As you will see, the shallow waters and the Currents have created in the sea like small hills of sand which have taken a special form that makes them look like “Frozen Waves“. If you look from above, you will see that no matter how much the sea moves above them, these waves seem to remain still, forming a corridor of white sand. What is even more impressive is the turquoise that makes the phenomenon dreamy.

This is a rare phenomenon observed in an area between Agistri Island and Aegina island in the Saronic Gulf very close to the islet of Metopi. The spot is right here as you will see on  Google Maps.


It is believed by some that the shallow waters around the islet of Metopi were once land connected to Agistri and Aegina, but after centuries they sank.

Check out the stunning images in the video below…

Frequently Asked Questions

The Frozen Waves are a rare natural phenomenon occurring in the Argosaronic Gulf between Agistri Island and Aegina Island near the islet of Metopi. They are formations of sand created by shallow waters and sea currents that resemble waves frozen in time, appearing as white sand corridors visible from above with stunning turquoise waters.

The Frozen Waves phenomenon is located in the Saronic Gulf in an area between Agistri Island and Aegina Island, very close to the small islet of Metopi in Attica, Greece. The exact location can be found on Google Maps for those planning to visit or view the area.

The Frozen Waves are formed by the combination of shallow waters and ocean currents in the Saronic Gulf. These natural forces create small hills of sand on the seafloor that take on a wave-like appearance, remaining still despite the movement of water above them.

The Frozen Waves are best viewed from above because their distinctive pattern and formation are only fully visible from an aerial perspective. From above, you can see the complete corridor of white sand formations against the turquoise water, which creates the impressive visual effect that makes them look like frozen waves.

Near the Frozen Waves, you can visit several Saronic Gulf islands including Aegina, Agistri, Poros, Spetses, Hydra, and Salamina Island. Each island offers unique attractions, from cultural heritage sites like Aegina's pistachio groves to pristine beaches and charming villages, making them ideal for day trips or weekend getaways.
