What people say

"Alimos is a very cute and very local feeling seaside town. We liked that it didn't feel touristy. The main beach is really nice and has a lot of services like bars, restaurants, and shops. The promenade was nice to walk on at sunset and in the morning. There are definitely some big clubs here and people party. But if that's not your scene it can also easily be avoided. We avoided it with no problems. Overall we really enjoyed hanging here on the beach, walking by the water, eating at a local spot and staying in our airbnb. "
"Alimos, also known as "Kalamaki", is a modern suburb, a seaside town with the biggest asset of Marina Alimos Bay, one of the largest in Greece. At the famous beach section of Alimos, Akti tou Iliou, some very impressive beach bars turn into clubs when it gets late. The best and most famous DJs in the world have played there. A nightlife experience in Alimos is therefore highly recommended. Getting there: From Syntagma Square Tramline T6: Station Pikrodafni Change to Tramline T7: Station Kalamaki "

Mentioned in these guides

This is a guide for Athens and Alimos Greece. If you are not familiar with Alimos (I wasn't either), it is a seaside town on the coast and is very close to Athens. It makes for a great city break from the heat of Athens. If you are heading to the Greek Islands for the summer it's very likely you'll pass through Athens. There is a wealth of things to do here. We've been a few times now and I still have things on my list that I'd like to see and do in future trips. This guide will cover all of the things that I have personally done, seen, and eaten in Athens. *Including a mini street food our that we personally created and did! It will also cover things I have researched that sound amazing and that I wish to do on future trips. Why Athens? Personally I find Athens to be an incredible city. Not everyone wants to spend time in Athens, but we really enjoyed Athens and found it had a lot to offer. There are lots of great things to do and see here and so much history. We have visited twice so this guide for Athens will include quite a bit. You can pick and choose what you would find most enjoyable for a day or two here at the beginning and possibly also the end of your trip. I am going to divide this Athens portion into 2 sections. The first will be for more of the heart of Athens and first timers or people who love all of the main and major things in the city. We also created our own mini street food tour here and that is included as well.   The second section is with a base in Alimos. This is likely for people who have already been to Athens and have seen all of the history and main sites. Or for people who just don't care and would rather beach and chill during their day or two in Athens.
