点评:Our cruise ship had an extra day in Athens. Having seen Athens and Piraeus before, we opted to do a daytrip to the island of Aegina. We really enjoyed it.
Since the cruise ship was anchored in Piraeus, it was only a short taxi ride to the correct pier for the ferry to Aegina Island (there are numerous piers at Piraeus, fortunately our taxi driver knew the correct one for the ferry to Piraeus). The ferry ride took about an hour. It drops you off in the harbour for the town of Aegina, right by the waterfront; from here we took a rented car to explore the island. It was fun driving the narrow but quiet roads around the island, visiting the temple of Aphaia, etc.
However, we also spent some time along the waterfront at Aegina, and it is very nice. There are shops along the waterfront, also numerous restaurants with outdoor seating, and it's enjoyable to watch the various boats and the ferries entering and leaving the harbour while eating. If you walk a block or two back from the waterfront, you'll enter a much quieter and less touristy version of Aegina, also interesting to explore.
It's a great place for a day trip, and convenient if you are based in Piraeus.
翻译:我们的游轮在雅典多停留了一天。由于之前已经游览过雅典和比雷埃夫斯,我们决定去埃吉纳岛一日游。我们玩得非常开心。
由于游轮停泊在比雷埃夫斯港,打车一小会儿便能抵达前往埃吉纳岛的渡轮码头(比雷埃夫斯港有好几个码头,幸运的是我们的出租车司机知道去埃吉纳岛的渡轮该从哪个码头出发)。渡轮航程大约一小时,随后便会把乘客送至埃吉纳镇的港口。我们就住在海滨附近;从那里我们租了一辆车去游览整个岛屿。驾车行驶在岛上那些狭窄却宁静的道路上十分有趣,我们还参观了阿菲亚神庙等景点。
此外,我们也在埃伊纳岛的海滨区域度过了不少时光,那里真的很宜人。海滨沿线有各种商店,还有很多带户外座位的餐厅;边用餐边观赏各式各样的船只和渡轮进出港口,也是一种享受。从海滨往里走一两个街区,你便会进入一个更为宁静且游客较少的埃伊纳岛,同样值得一探。
这里是一日游的绝佳去处,对于住在比雷埃夫斯的人来说也很方便。
