Escape from Athens and spend a weekend on the Argosaronikos Gulf

So you are flying back home in 2 days but you have already seen more or less the whole city of Athens and you have done all the suggested sightseeings. You ‘re looking for a close destination to escape for a day or two, you need a place close to Athens, a place that you can arrive right away and a place that is well-connected and offers something new and different.

Of course, it’s getting warmer and warmer, therefore, a coast or an island would sound ideal to you! And here you are! Within close distance from Athens, you can find the Argosaronikos’ islands, the real diamonds and the jewels of Argosaronic Gulf. Along with their antiquities, historical monuments and sightseeing, those picturesque small islands with their beautiful sandy or pebbled beaches offer multiple options for an unforgettable and relaxing weekend away from the city. The islands offer accommodations for all budgets, tavernas on the beach, watersports and activities that cover everyone’s style and tastes.
