Route map

Schematic only. Not for navigation. Overnight positions are approximate. The sea-mark layer (OpenSeaMap) is built by the community; it shows harbours, lights and sometimes depth soundings, and is no substitute for an official nautical chart. Before every mooring, check depths, wind and harbour conditions on an up-to-date chart and in the pilot book.

In classical antiquity Aegina was a powerful city-state and at one point a rival of Athens. In modern times Aegina is known for the temple of Aphaia, pistachio production, and the pilgrimage site of St. Nektarios. Many Athenians have established vacation homes in Aegina.
