About Vouliagmeni - presentation, information, photos and recommendations
There is a small temple to Apollo located on the grounds of the Astir Palace Beach Resort Hotel, which has a pay beach with cabanas, cafes and some watersports. There are also a number of restaurants and tavernas on the Kavouri side, on the sea, some expensive and some not. South of Kavouri is the pay beach of Vouliagmeni which many Athenians I know consider the first of the clean beaches since it faces the open sea to the south and is protected from Athens by the penisula. The town of Vouliagmeni is across Posidonas Avenue and is mostly modern apartment buildings and narrow streets but there are some mega-cafes and a few fast food and other restaurants. Vouliagmeni, which means sunken, is famous for its lake which supposedly has some healing properties and is the closest natural spa to Athens and is open year round. The lake is fed by an underground river as well as caves from the sea where some American divers from the US base were lost in the early seventies and not found until a couple years ago.
The piece of land that juts out between Varkisa and Vouliagmeni is famous for its many coves where young Athenians flock in the summer because the sea is clean and you don't have to pay to swim. You will know where to get off the road because you will see massive parking areas full of cars in the summer, though you can only catch glimpses of the coves from the road.
Vouliagmeni | Vouliagmeni is famous for a wooded area with two small peninsulas, Kavouri and Lemos, which have some very nice pay beaches, a couple decent free beaches, some nice swimming areas off the rocks (if you are a good swimmer) and some of the most beautiful
resort hotels on the mainland
