There is an Athens-Aegina ferry that travels between the coast and the island on a daily basis. These ferries can also take you to two other small islands in the same gulf, Hydra and Poros.
A day trip from Athens to Aegina Island involves a 30-minute ferry ride (with the Flying Dolphin). These convenient Aegina ferries depart from the Port of Piraeus, and the ticket is about 15 euros.
No matter whether you’re visiting Aegina in the middle of the high season or during winter, which is definitely less busy, here you’ll find great things to check out when visiting the island.
As with any other Greek Island, there are more things to enjoy when the weather is warm, more Aegina beaches to enjoy, and more walking paths to explore. However, since the island is so close to Athens, people visit it all year round, even in winter.
In town, you will find many shops for souvenirs, along with delightful outdoor dining venues where you can enjoy the sounds of the sea as you enjoy Greek cuisine.
