A local would say...

Take a small boat to a tiny island that is a nature reserve — turtles in the water and peacocks wandering the trees.

A quaint fishing village 9km south of Aegina Town on the southern tip of the west coast. The harbour is very shallow, so for best swimming, catch a caïque (€4) to the tiny nature-reserve island of Moni just offshore — magical tree-lined beach and a summertime cafe. Tavernas line the raised harbour-front terrace for sultry sunset watching.
