Pylos (Greek Πύλος) is the name of a bay and a town on the west coast of the Peloponnese, in the district of Messenia in southern Greece.
On one of the portions is the tomb of a Turkish saint, or santon; and near the centre of the port is another very small island, or rock." The modern name of the island is Sphagia.
During the period from the 12th to the 15th century when parts of Greece were under the control of Venice, Pylos became known by the Italian name Navarino, called by the Turks Avarin, and the Greeks Neo-Castron.
