Families will find plenty of organised activities and shallow waters suitable for children, while couples can enjoy romantic sunsets over the Saronic Gulf. It's also a time when many outdoor concerts and events take place along the coast.For a slightly different, yet equally enjoyable, beach experience, June is a fantastic alternative.

Couples looking for a bit more activity alongside their relaxation will enjoy the variety of things to do here.
Is it cheaper to book flights and a beach hotel in Athens as a package?
Booking a beach hotel and flight package on Expedia can be cheaper than booking flights and hotels separately. Bundling can lead to significant savings, especially for international travel or when booking a beach vacation package well in advance.
