We have been spending a few days climbing in Argolis (Peleponnes) about three hours west of Athens and came across a rather impressive Crag X today - it appears to be called Didima Big Cave.

Looks like it might make a suitabe venue for a good team with a lot of bolts and time on their hands!

What, you didn´t do the route slanting up lefwards in the black stuff on the middle right? The two homemade pegs should have led you up through the tottering choss
The real crag X is on the back road behind Candia leading through Aghios Andonious so just inland from Vivari/Drepanon.

I know you mentioned in your guide it was crap rock but I reckon some these modern lads could sort some belting routes out on the solider bits. Looks quite like Sikati Cave on Kalymnos,
