It’s worth it to visit the SNFCC Culutural Centre and book a guided tour! There is a shuttle bus that takes you to the SNFCC from Athens City Centre.

I would recommend getting there by car as it is a beautiful drive down the waterfront with lots of cafes and restaurants to stop at! Glyfada centre is packed with shops, restaurants and cafes! Other areas to visit near Glyafada that are on the beachfront are Voula and Vouliagmeni. I recently visited ‘Sofi’s Eatery’ in Vouliagmeni and it is my perfect brunch spot! Make sure to visit ‘Moorings’ cafe restaurant it has an amazing feel!
