Saladi or Salanti (Greek: Σαλάντι, Σαλάντιον) is a seaside prehistoric settlement located in the Argolic Gulf of Greece. Situated in the middle of Didymos Bay on the eastern coastline of Argolis, it lies north of the Franchthi Cave.

The beach facing east spans 750 meters, while the northern part comprises smaller beaches interspersed with rocks that extend into the sea. To the south, the beach ends at a peninsula that juts out perpendicularly, measuring 600 meters in length. At the edge of this peninsula stands the small church of Agios Nikolaos. A limestone hill rises above the peninsula, and at the point where the beach ends, a small seasonal wetland has formed, attracting various species of birds.[1][2][3][4]
