Ontdek Athene

Athens is not just about ancient history – it also offers beautiful coastlines. We recommend taking a boat tour along the Athenian Riviera for stunning views of the city and coastline. Paddleboarding or snorkeling in the clear waters is a great way to relax after exploring the city’s cultural landmarks.

Athens is easy to explore on foot in the historic center, and public transportation, including buses and the metro, is efficient for getting around the city. Renting a car is recommended only if you plan to visit nearby coastal towns or archaeological sites outside the city.

While Athens is primarily known for its historical sites, its proximity to the Aegean Sea means there are opportunities for watersports nearby. Take a boat tour to the nearby Saronic Islands, such as Aegina or Hydra, where you can snorkel, swim, and explore the clear waters.
