Local help for your Rafina trip
rafina.info is a small, independent guide run by people who live in Rafina. We started it to give travellers passing through the port the kind of honest, practical answers you'd get from a friend who knows the place — where to catch your ferry, how to get here from the airport, where to swim and where to eat.
Who runs rafina.info
The guide is run by Lefteris Skoulas, who grew up in Rafina and has made the airport-to-ferry dash more times than he can count. When you tap “ask a local,” you're reaching a real person from the town — not a call centre — who can tell you which gate your boat leaves from, whether the sea is rough today, and where to find the best grilled fish by the harbour.
Guide-first, always
Every page is built to answer a real question first. We don't sell listings or reviews, and we only point you to services we'd happily use ourselves. If something isn't worth your time or money, we'll say so.
How we keep the site free
Some of our links — ferry tickets (Ferryhopper), airport transfers (Welcome Pickups), tours and places to stay — earn us a small commission if you book through them, at no extra cost to you. It never changes the price you pay or the advice we give; it's simply what keeps rafina.info free and ad-light. You can read the details in our Privacy Policy and Terms of Use.
About Rafina
Rafina is a lively port town on the east coast of Attica, about 25 km from Athens and only 20–30 minutes from Athens International Airport. It's the mainland's gateway to the northern Cyclades — Andros, Tinos, Mykonos and beyond — and, unlike Piraeus, it's small enough to enjoy a swim or a fresh-fish lunch by the water before you sail.
