This is just something to be aware of when traveling to Greece and this may surprise you if youre not from Europe. Some beaches in Greece are nude, and when visiting a non-nude beach, you might see some women topless. This is not as popular is it used to be in Greece. I have noticed less and less women going topless but it still happens. It is not considered rude in Greece to do, especially in front of small children. If you don't feel comfortable, just politely move away or go to another beach!

I did notice that I see fewer people sunning themselves topless at a nude beach. Many of the people I do see who are topless were tourists from other European countries. It can certainly be a shock the first time you stumble upon a nude beach!

When I first went to Mykonos I found a nude beach by accident and wasn't used to it.

Do you remember which beach?
I lived there for many years....we were used to this as a way of life, not a big deal really, one would be surprised how many Greek people were using these beaches, even at the end of my local beach in Kalo Livadi.....All good fun!!

It was Super Paradise, which I realized later isn't an official nude beach, but it was crazy that day.Do you remember which beach?

Is Marathon a good day trip from Athens?

I've been planning an itinerary for my upcoming trip to Athens, and I've always been fascinated by the historical significance of Marathon. Considering its role in ancient history and the famous battle that took place there, it seems like a place that might be worth a visit.
However, I'm on the fence about dedicating a whole day trip to Marathon. From what I understand, it isn’t too far from Athens, but I'm trying to weigh up whether the experience is worthy compared to spending that time exploring more within the city itself.
Has anyone made the day trip to Marathon from Athens? Was it an enriching experience, and what are the can't-miss sights? Is the archeological site/museum there engaging enough for a history buff? Also, how about the logistics – is it easy to get to by public transport, or would you suggest renting a car or going with a tour?
I am just trying to decide if it's worth it, or if I should plan to stay overnight. Thanks!
