Murphey Posted April 24, 2016 #1 Share Posted April 24, 2016 We have been to Athens multiple times and would like to just find a nice area to walk a bit and have a local lunch, perhaps on a waterfront. Any suggestions? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diane.in.ny Posted April 25, 2016 #2 Share Posted April 25, 2016 We were in Piraeus in October 2015. While we didn't go ashore, we saw a small tram/train making the rounds between ships. We found out that the cost was $5 RT to be taken to an area with lots of restaurants and a couple of shops. The couple we spoke to said there was nothing exciting but it was a nice area for a stroll and a light bite to eat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockdoctor Posted April 25, 2016 #3 Share Posted April 25, 2016 Now that Piraeus is an immigrant port it has changed. Security is more intense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The church is around the corner, check a map for the museum but it is up the hill and half way down on the left. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree it's a nice, small museum well worth visiting. They have some bronze statues there that rival anything in the National Archaeological Museum in Athens.
