About Lavrion
Lavrio (Lavrion) is a small harbour town at the south-eastern tip of Attica, about 36 km by road from Athens International Airport. Its port authority has turned the Passenger Station into a cruise terminal used mainly for homeporting small and medium ships. The town grew around the ancient silver and lead mines of Lavreotiki, and its museums and 19th-century industrial buildings reflect that history.
Cape Sounion and the Temple of Poseidon lie about 11 km south, and the ancient theatre of Thorikos sits on a hill just north of town. Athens is about an hour away by road.
