Why We Picked These Tours
Aegina was briefly the first capital of modern Greece, in 1828, and its neoclassical harbor town still shows it. The Temple of Aphaia, a Doric sanctuary from around 500 BC, stands on a pine-covered hill and is said to line up with the Parthenon and Sounion in a famous triangle. The island is also Greece’s pistachio capital.
Pistachios and fish lunches
Pistachios appear in every harbor shop as nuts, sweets and ice cream, and the local nut carries a protected designation. Perdika, a fishing village in the southwest, is a favorite spot for fish lunches.
Timing Your Aegina Trip
April to October is best. Spring brings wildflowers and mild weather for the temple walk, while July and August are hot and busy with Athenian weekenders. Weekdays are calmer than weekends.
