THE MARINA website
Kalamaki Marina is said to be the largest charter base in Greece and the East Mediterranean Sea. It is located 12 kilometres away from Athens centre at the south coast of Attica-Athens. During the charter season it is a very busy place, because it is the main yacht base for many charter companies in Greece. There is frequent connection with Athens historical centre (Acropolis, Parthenon, Plaka old town, etc) and with Piraeus, the main port for ferries, flying dolphins and catamarans to all the Aegean islands, Cyclades and Dodecanese.

 

HOW TO REACH OUR ALIMOS BASE
The Athens International Airport EL. VENIZELOS is situated in Spata area and is approximately 41km from Alimos marina. Getting there is pretty straightforward. You can either take a public bus or a taxi. You will find both as soon as you exit the main airport areas. The public bus runs on a 24hr basis and is every 20-25 minutes and the ticket costs 3.5 Euro. Depeding on the traffic, the route from the airport to the marina is approx. 90 minutes. The name of the bus that you have to take is X96 and it is heading to Piraeus port. Your stop is called ALIMOS MARINA, (ask your bus driver for help).
The taxi is certainly the most convenient solution and costs approximately 40-45 Euro.
A pre-arranged transfer with mini-bus can also be provided by VOGUE SAILS at an extra cost of 110 euro.

 

MEETING POINT/OFFICE
The meeting point is directly onto your yacht. Pier No: 8

 

MOORINGS
When returning, go stern-to. Mooring lines are available. DO NOT USE ANCHORS!  There is no berth-guidance from the marina staff. Clients should call the Vogue Sails staff at least 2 hours before their entrance in Alimos Marina.

 

FACILITIES
Hot water showers and toilets at 80m distance from the yachts or less. Water and 220V power is available on the quay.
Fuel is delivered on the quay by a car-tanker. A taxi stand is found within the marina, though is better you ask us to order one. ATM cash point is right next to Port Police office.  
An unguarded car parking area is available too.

 

PROVISIONING
There is NO supermarket within the marina (!). You can either send us a provisioning list before you arrive and have everything brought directly to your boat or we will arrange transfer for 2 crew members to a Super Market. Super Market staff will return back to the boat the 2 persons with their provisioning. This transfer service is Free of Charge.
Tip: Don't forget to get ice, so that you save your yachts power at night!

 

RESTAURANTS
There is a variety of restaurants, including Greek and Italian cuisine, on and around the main road Poseidonos Avenue which can deliver too!! There are 3 all day snack-restaurants called "Kitchen Bar", “Dia Noche” and “Skippers Bar” are situated into the marina.
Tip: Take the tram to Syntagma Square downtown and walk 700m to Monastiraki and Plaka. There are fine kebab houses and traditional Greek taverns. On your way back to the marina you will enjoy the view of the illuminated Parthenon marbles up the hill.

 

SIGHTSEEING
For more information on interesting places please ask the Vogue Sails Staff at the Base.

 

THE WEATHER
The Saronic Gulf and Eastern Peloponesse is generally a protected sailing area, with winds seldom exceeding Force 2-4 B out of NW to N. The weather is sunny and warm with very little rain, but some during spring and autumn.

 

HAZARDS
ATTENTION to the reef of AGHIOS COSMAS, SE of the entrance to Alimos Marina, is difficult to spot at night. MORE ATTENTION should be drawn to the MERMINGIA rocks, 4-4.5 miles SE of Alimos Marina in the direction of Cape Sounio.
