10 hotels near the sea in Athens. Athenian Riviera.
Athens are located on the shores of the Saronic Gulf, but despite the proximity to the sea, the Greek capital is rarely chosen for a beach holiday. I must say that tourists who want to warm up in the sun and swim in the sea can be understood. Athens is the city of attractions, and if you go over the sea, it is better to go to chalkidiki or the islands. However, if you want to get "2-in-1", then you can combine: and the Acropolis see and swim in the sea. For beach holidays in Athens usually choose areas of Paleo Faliro, Glyfada, Almimos, Voula, vulitamy and further to Cape Sunion, the tourists stop at Luts. If we consider the Greek capital for a beach holiday, it is best to choose the area of the so-called Athenian Riviera. First, from here to the city center you can get in just 30-40 minutes, secondly, it is here that are better in Athens beaches, comfortable hotels and other tourist infrastructure. We decided to make a selection of hotels near the sea, but they did not even be limited to Riviera, so you can find and cheap hotels near the airport (suddenly you have a changeare for almost a day that there is a time to disappear).

Choose a hotel in Athens by the sea
Not for the first time we will repeat that for purely beach holidays – Athens is not the best option. This option is suitable for those who want to combine sightseeing with a pleasant opportunity to pour into the sea. For example, we are not at all recreation fans on the shore and after 2-3 days we begin to miss. For us, the best option is to spend a week in Athens and see the sights, and then move to the Athenian Riviera and spend 3-4 days by the sea, visiting Cape Sunion and the thermal lake of alluagmena. Although this option is also very questionable: we will better take the car to rent and go again in Road trip to Peloponnes) And we will stop on different bathing beaches. But not all of the fans of museums and car moves, therefore, Athens should be considered as an option for combined rest. Athenian Riviera has everything necessary for this: good hotels, developed infrastructure, good sandy beaches. Depending on your needs and budget it is worth choosing a holiday area: Riviera for the cheapest, but a comfortable stay, and Lutsa for a quiet pastime and much cheaper. Be sure to read the reviews not to spoil your vacation because of any little things, for example, the lack of a kettle in the room. We wish you a warm sea and a clean beach!
