Athens & the mainland

Athens, the Attic coast, the Saronic and Argolic Gulfs, and the eastern Peloponnese.
Athens, the capital and the largest city in Greece, is hectic and combines the ancient and the modern with countless historical sites, museums and attractions.
Athens is the anchor of the yacht charter companies based in five main marinas.
On Fridays and Saturdays, the docks are buzzing, suitcases are rolling, supermarket carts are blown up, repairs are being made, and the fuel tanks are filling up, lively and excited.
After all, this is where you start your sailing vacation and end.

Hello Sailors, Let’s check out the main marinas from which you will start your sailing vacation:

Alimos Marina 37° 54.75′ N, 23° 42.22′ E

Alimos Marina is one of the largest marinas in Greece; located South West of Athens, about a 20min drive from the centre and 40 min drive from the airport.

Renovations will be made in the next coming years, so the charter company’s bases are around the piers, in temporary Buildings. You can find the exact location on Google Maps.
