Attica

Attica is synonymous with Athens, one of the world’s most historically significant cities and a modern metropolis, buzzing with life. But its magic extends far beyond the centre, all the way down the Attica peninsula as far as Cape Sounion. Its coastline is filled with beaches, marinas, five-star resorts and smaller hotels, and dozens of restaurants and bars overlooking the sea. And let’s not forget the islands of Argosaronic Gulf which are a glimpse away from Athens.
The historical and cultural wealth of Athens, combined with the modern and youthful vibe, make it an ideal city break destination.

Euboea

Euboea, the second largest island of Greece and the third in the eastern Mediterranean, is located close to the Prefecture of Attica. However, it has a somewhat mainland character, since two bridges - the modern, suspended one and the older, sliding one - link it to mainland Greece, called "Sterea Ellada”.

Argosaronic Gulf

The islands of the Argosaronic Gulf are ever-popular with sailors, primarily because they are so close to Athens. Despite their proximity to the Greek capital, they are packed with as much atmosphere and charm as their more distant cousins in the outer Aegean. The whole area has retained its natural beauty, enhanced by the sense of history, with delightful little ports and coves.
Among their great advantages is that the south coast of Attica protects them from strong winds and rough seas, which in combination with the sheltering arm of the northern Peloponnese makes them practically a big closed bay, with invariably calm and safe seas enabling flotilla and family yachting holidays in Greece.

Mainland

Whether you’re looking for adventure, breathtaking views, cultural inspiration, or just relaxation, Greece’s Mainland is the place to enjoy them all. If skiing is an activity you’d love to practice or try yourself at, Parnassos is one of the best and most visited mountains to do so during your winter vacations. Meanwhile, Arahova, laying at the foot of the mountain, offers an exquisite destination, famous for its cosmopolitan character and picturesque resting places to have a coffee or snack - that’s why it’s also called Mykonos of the winter. Yet, your trip doesn’t have to end there. If you feel like exploring more about Greece’s heritage, Delphi, a true World Heritage monument as nominated by Unesco, is one of the top-visited archeological sites, located just 15 minutes away and waiting for you to unveil its magnificent beauty and rich history.
