Stay close to the port
If you have a dawn ferry or a late landing, a night near Rafina beats a stressful airport dash. Good bases include Rafina itself (steps from the boats and the fish tavernas), and the seaside suburbs of Nea Makri and Artemida just down the coast — handy for a beach weekend before you sail.
Not sure where to base yourself? Central Rafina is closest to the port — the easiest choice for an early or late ferry. Nea Makri and Artemida (Loutsa) are relaxed beach areas that suit families and a longer stay. Marathon, a little further out, is quieter and steeped in history if you'd rather slow down. Pick the area that matches your trip, then search below.
