Lavrion is about 25 miles (35 kilometres) south east of Athens Airport. There are two charter bases in Lavrion; the harbour, immediately south of the town, and the marina, about a mile further south – check which your charter company uses. There are two ways to get there:
- By taxi – the rank is right outside the arrivals hall. Taxis will take up to 4 people maximum but if you have a lot of luggage may only take 3. The fare is around 55€ (£40, in 2015). The trip takes 30-45 minutes, depending on traffic.
- By bus – or to be more accurate two! Head for the KTEL bus stop outside the arrivals hall on the far side of the road (not the Express bus stop on the terminal side, used by the buses to Pireaus and Athens centre). The first bus will take you to Markopoulo and departures are every hour on the half hour from 06.30 to 20.30 with a final bus at 22.00 from the airport. Buses from Markopoulo to Lavrion are more frequent. Both buses use the same bus stop in Markopoulo. The bus will drop you in the centre of Lavrion from where it’s about a 10 minute walk to the harbour. The marina is 1 mile further an up over a steep hill – I’d get a taxi! The bus fare is about 4€.
As usual transfers can also be booked on line, and most charter companies will arrange them for you if you wish.
