Agia Marina - a resort town on the northeast coast of the beautiful Greek island of Aegina. It is located about 15 km from the capital of the island (Aegina) in a picturesque bay. Today, Agia Marina - the most popular tourist center of the island annually attracts a huge number of tourists from all over the world. Very popular resort among the Greeks.

The special pride of Agia Marina is a beautiful sandy beach (the longest and well-maintained sandy beach of the island), as well as crystal-clear waters and beautiful pine forests. The relative shallow water and very convenient entry into the water is ideal for families with children. Fans also will be able to take an active pastime here for sailing, rowing and canoeing, windsurfing, beach volleyball, etc. All the necessary equipment for water sports can be rented.

The tourist infrastructure is well developed Agia Marina. There is a superb selection of luxury hotels and apartments, a variety of shops, plenty of restaurants, taverns and cafes where you can enjoy excellent local cuisine, as well as great nightclubs and discos.

In the southern end of the beach is a small snow-white church of Agia Marina, from which, in fact, the resort got its name. Every year on July 17 at the day of Saint Marina is held solemn festivities, which end mass festivities.

Not far from Agia Marina and the main attractions are the island of Aegina - Monastery of Saint Nektarios, the Temple of Attai and abandoned Paleochora, are definitely worth a visit.
