Fancy a short island detour? Aegina, the island highlight in the Saronic Sea, is actually only a stone's throw away from the capital Athens. The island fascinates with its contrasting, distinctive landscapes and sparkles with charm and charisma. Impressive temples from ancient times, masterful Byzantine sacred buildings, monuments and neoclassical buildings reflect the island's millennia of historical significance. Walk through the cobbled streets and along the gracefully simple whitewashed houses to enjoy the idyllic atmosphere at the island's cosmopolitan port town! Charming small villages, coastal towns and artist colonies complete the impressive island picture with their distinctive traditional character.
