The sea water
• Two major rivers from the land across Patras and two others, smaller, are the most important sources of freshwater to the the Gulf.
• The ecological value of Patras Gulf is high due to the presence of two lagoons, which are wetlands of international importance under the Ramsar Convention

The Fishing
• The overfishing and the change of the bottom of the sea (human constructions, estuaries) have reduced the biodiversity of the sea life.
