Athens Airport Transfer to Skaramagas

Skaramagkas is located on the east coast of the Eleusis Bay. The mountain of Aigaleo separates it from Athens and Piraeus. Skaramagkas is 9 km northwest of Piraeus and 11 km west of Athens city centre. In 1973, the Skaramagkas harbour was the scene of an experiment carried out by Greek scientist Ioannis Sakkas, to test if it was possible for Archimedes to use focused sunlight to burn Roman ships during the Siege of Syracuse. This event is mentioned in ancient texts but often doubted by historians. In the 1973 experiment at Skaramagkas harbour, 70 mirrors with a copper coating did focus enough sunlight to set on fire a plywood mock-up of a Roman warship at a distance of around 50 metres.
