Things To Do
Lake Vouliagmeni
A natural thermal spring surrounded by cliffs. The water stays warm year-round and is calm and easy to enter. It is one of the most unique swimming spots in Greece and a favorite of locals.
Astir Beach
Astir Beach is the most well-known beach in the area and an easy taxi or short walk from most hotels in Vouliagmeni. It is an organized beach with reserved loungers, umbrellas, changing areas, showers, and food and drink service, so you can comfortably spend the whole day there. The water is very calm and clear, making it ideal for swimming, and there are cafés and restaurants onsite for lunch. Reservations are often required during the summer months, especially on weekends, so we recommend booking in advance if you plan to visit.
Glyfada Shopping & Walking
The center of Glyfada is designed for strolling. You will find Greek boutiques alongside familiar brands, bakeries, jewelry stores, and coffee shops. The main area is around Metaxa Street and Kyprou Street, which are pedestrian-friendly and active late into the evening. It’s a great place for Souvenirs, Jewelry, clothing shopping, cafés and people-watching!
