The old harbour
The main port of Aegina, is located on the northwest side of the island and is basically connected with the main town, which happens to be also the capital of the island. Whitewashed neoclassical buildings, more colored than the white and blue that you will see in the Cyclades, stone paved alleys and a more, easy going character. Nothing is there to remind us that she was the leading maritime force of the Saronic islands during the 7 th century, but the wealth of the island and the prestigious atmosphrere can be sensed in the air.
