About ferries to Athens
Greek ferries are the main means of transportation between Athens and the islands of the Aegean Sea.
There are three ports around Athens. The most important and busy is the port of Piraeus which serves most islands of the Aegean Sea. A ferry from Athens will get you to the most popular or secluded islands of the Aegean, but also to some mainland ports of the Peloponnese.
The second is the port of Rafina which is the closest to the airport. This port is the most popular among visitors who arrive at the airport and need to take a ferry from Athens to the Greek islands. Some ferries also depart from the port of Lavrio, which is located in the southernmost part of Attica.
