Historical
Upon liberation of Greece in 1830, the extreme points of the country were:
- North: Psathoura island (39.498°N 24.181°E) in the Northern Sporades, NE of Alonnisos
- South: Eschati (Mermengas) islet in the Cyclades, around 10 miles SW of Santorini
- East: Amorgos island (36°50′N 25°54′E) and in particular the eastern tip thereof, east of Aegiali village
- West: Forti islet in the Ionian Sea, in the narrow straits between the island of Lefkas (still under British rule) and the coast of Acarnania province of the Aetolia-Acarnania prefecture, to which it belonged
Upon granting of the Ionian Islands to Greece in 1864 the extreme points of the country were modified as follows:
- North & West: Sazan Island (Sason, Saso) (40°30′N 19°17′E) at the entrance of the Bay of Vlorë (Aulon, Avlona)
- South: Antikythera (35°52′N 23°18′E)
