Attica
Αττική
Attica is the region around Athens: the capital itself, the port of Piraeus that connects the mainland to almost every island, the coastal strip known as the Athens Riviera, and the Saronic islands a short ferry ride away.
It is where most trips to Greece begin. Ancient sites, a dense modern restaurant scene and quick access to the sea all sit within an hour of the centre.
