Forthnet, a greek ISP, offers street-maps of Attica (the Athens area) and Thessaloniki with useful locations marked. Installing the Google Earth application is a fantastic way to get a perspective on the city—much better than a normal street-map. Downloading the Google Earth file for our City Map will let you see the points of interest we've marked (along with many others) from within Google Earth.
- Forthnet also offers a boat-schedule–search for a given date and route that claims to be virtually comprehensive, and in many cases offers links to book online a ticket for the itinerary you have found.
