To reach Vounaki Marina in Paleros, the most direct international airport is Aktion National Airport (PVK), which is about 25 kilometers away. While Athens International Airport (ATH) is another option, it involves a drive of 3 to 4 hours. From Aktion, you can arrange a transfer or taxi to the marina.
