Ελληνικά

Tο Γύθειο είναι ιστορική «πόλη»-κωμόπολη και λιμένας που βρίσκεται στη νότια Πελοπόννησο κοντά στις εκβολές του ποταμού Ευρώτα, δυτικά του μυχού του Λακωνικού Κόλπου. Είναι ο κυριότερος λιμένας του Λακωνικού Κόλπου και ο δεύτερος της νότιας Πελοποννήσου (μετά την Καλαμάτα). Η νότια άκρη της πόλης του Γυθείου ενώνεται μέσω μικρού προβλήτα με ένα μικρό νησί, την αρχαία Κρανάη ή Μαραθονήσι, όπου βρίσκεται ο πύργος της οικογένειας Τζαννετάκη. Oι κάτοικοι του Γυθείου καλούνται Γυθειάτες - Γυθειάτισσες.
