Background
Alimos Marina is one of the largest marinas in Greece, with 1,000 permanent berths. The Marina is located Southwest of Athens 15 Km from the city center, 8 Km South of Piraeus port and 30 km from El. Venizelos International Airport. It is served by a dense transportation network of Trams, Buses, and Taxis, with stations 500 meters from the Marina. Port docking is made with mooring lines that lay between the piers. While maneuvering in the port, you should be careful of those lines. Electricity and water are provided through pillars. Coffee shops and restaurants in the marina can provide Wi-Fi service.
Marina is part of the Kalmaki neighborhood.
Kalamaki (Greek: Καλαμάκι) is a coastal neighborhood that today forms part of Alimos, a residential and commercial suburb within the South Athens regional unit of the greater Athens metropolitan area.
The village of Kalamaki was founded in 1923, following the population exchange between Greece and Turkey, by resettled ethnic Greeks from the Anatolian town of the same name, which was later renamed Kalkan.
Between 1942 and 1945, Kalamaki was administratively united with the neighboring coastal settlement of Phalerum, forming the municipality of Palaio Faliro. In 1968, it was merged with the inland community of Trachones to the east, establishing the modern city of Alimos.
