Descrizione

Begin your journey with a scenic morning ferry ride from Piraeus, Athens’ gateway to the Greek islands. Choose a departure at 08:00 or 10:00. Cross the Saronic Gulf to one of Greece’s most charming islands - Aegina. The speed ferry by Flying Dolphins covers the distance in just 40 minutes, making it the fastest way to reach the island. The ferry ride itself is an experience on its own.
The ferry depart from Piraeus, Athens main port. You can easily reach it from central Athens by metro or a taxi ride.
Arrive in Aegina Town, a lively harbor filled with neoclassical buildings, fishing boats, pistachio stands, and inviting seaside cafés. Explore the historic center on foot, stroll along the waterfront promenade, visit the small Kolona archaeological site near the port, and take in the authentic island atmosphere at your own pace.
If you wish to see more of the island, Aegina offers easy access by local bus or taxi to two major landmarks: the Monastery and Cathedral of Agios Nektarios, one of Greece’s most important pilgrimage sites, and the Temple of Aphaia, a beautifully preserved ancient sanctuary with panoramic views. Both sites are a short drive away and can be reached independently.
Spend the afternoon enjoying lunch by the sea, browsing local shops, or tasting Aegina’s famous pistachio products before catching the ferry back to Athens at 17:15.
