The Altar of Melikertes was an altar located on the shore north of Port of Kechries within Isthmus of Poseidon in Korinthia, Greece.

The altar was dedicated to Melikertes, a prince of Boeotia and the son of Ino, whose corpse was found and buried by the founder of Korinth Sisyphos. Sisyphos went on to establish a cult around the deceased prince, and as part of it, created the Isthmian Games to celebrate him. During the Peloponnesian War the misthios Kassandra visited the place.[1]
