Athens

Beach sights in Athens

  1. A

    Limni Vouliagmenis

    You can swim year-round at Limni Vouliagmenis, a part-saltwater/part-springwater lake whose temperature never falls below 21°C and is known for its therapeutic mineral qualities. It is set dramatically against a huge jutting cliff, just off the coast, and has a quaint old-world atmosphere thanks to the regular clientele of elderly citizens dressed in bathing caps and towelling gowns.
