Akrogialia Restaurant
Akrogialia Marathonas Restaurant
Akrogialia Restaurant in Marathon, Aegina, cannot be missed because it simply stands out. It stands out because it is the first organized beach that you meet on your way from Aegina’s harbour, so this is where you can have your first swim directly when you arrive on the island. It also stands out because of its blue and white striped wooden construction (changing rooms) that reminds us of the popular Miami beach!
The calm, shallow waters of Akrogialia beach may win you over with your very first swim but it’s the authentic home-style cooking that will truly capture your heart.
In the kitchen, you’ll find Mrs. Eleni and Mrs. Xeni Marmarinou, who cook every dish with care, passion, and that warm Greek sense of hospitality. Every day, they prepare fresh, homemade meals, and if we had to pick just one standout, it would be their moussaka layered with juicy eggplant, savory minced meat, and light, fluffy béchamel. And don’t miss the handmade pies, like the irresistible zucchini and cheese pie!
The menu also includes classic meze, freshly cut crisp salads served in uniquely styled dishes, traditional meatballs with golden fried potatoes, grilled meats and vegetables, and a selection of seafood for those craving flavors from the sea. For a modern twist, you’ll also find handmade burgers and their popular club sandwich.
As for the service, the team at Akrogialia makes you feel right at home always with a smile, thoughtful care, and genuine respect for every guest.
And if you stay until late in the day, you’ll be treated to a magical sunset over the western coast of Aegina the perfect way to end your experience at Akrogialia.
Bonus Tip 1: We strongly suggest that you enjoy your dinner and cocktails at Akrogialia Restaurant, ideally after sunset, in an idyllic setting under the moon and the lanterns hanging from the mulberries … What more could you ask for? Don’t forget to book a table!
Bonus Tip 2: Akrogialia Restaurant is open daily from very early in the morning serving delicious coffee and breakfast literally on the sea.
