Explore PIRAEUS With Us!
The largest port in Greece is waiting for you to discover its beauty and long, fascinating history!
Piraeus is a modern, vibrant city with deep roots stretching back to Ancient Greece. It offers stunning sea views you won’t find anywhere else in Athens. Join us to explore its hidden gems and uncover the rich culture behind this coastal gem!
Surrounded by sea
Piraeus is actually a small peninsula—a chersonissos—a strip of land almost entirely embraced by water. That’s what gives it its distinct island-like vibe, even though it’s just a heartbeat away from Athens.
Maritime tradition
As a port city, Piraeus has a deep-rooted maritime tradition. Many locals are professional sailors or fishermen, while others are passionate amateur seafarers who spend their free time on the water.
Unique cultural vibes
Traditional tavernas blend with neoclassical gems like the Dimotiko Theatro—an architectural masterpiece that stands proudly in the city center—while the recently revived Piraeus Tower adds a bold modern touch to the skyline. This mix of old and new gives Piraeus a cultural vibe that’s truly one of a kind.
