Spread over the Saronic Gulf and up to the entrance of the Argolic Gulf, the islands and coasts of the Saronic Gulf are extremely popular destinations due to their short distance from Athens.
The six islands (Salamina, Aegina, Agistri, Poros, Hydra and Spetses) and Methana on the shores of the Peloponnese, combine the short distance from the city with great landscapes, unique archeological sites, museums, picturesque settlements and magnificent beaches.
