Planning to visit Greece this summer?
We have good news for you!
Greece is one of the most well-known summer destinations, and there are many reasons why. Greece has around 3,000 islands, of which 230 are inhabited, offering plenty of options for your vacation. Even though the country consists mostly of sea and archipelagos, the mainland is rocky with huge mountains and forests, and the sea is always nearby.
Regardless of whether your destination is an exotic island or a forested village, you will most likely enter the country through the largest airport, the “Athens International Airport Eleftherios Venizelos.” Many visitors use the airport either as a transit point to their final destination or to visit the historic and ancient city of Athens.
By the time you land, you’ll need to choose a place for your short or long stay. Athens has three major ports, one airport, and two long coasts with sunny beaches! The most suitable coast for your stay is something you’ll have to decide based on your transit plans and how you want to spend your vacation. But to assist you, we offer this ultimate tool: our FREE travel guide for East Attica and the eastern Athens coast.
The East coast is less urbanized, more peaceful, and has many historic and natural places to visit. It is also nearer to the ports of Lavrio and Rafina, as well as the airport. The beaches here are very clean, and the marine life is rich!
