📍 Geographic Location of Lagonisi
Geographic Overview
The +30 2291 area code is a geographic National Destination Code (NDC) assigned to the Lagonisi region in Greece. Lagonisi is a coastal town situated on the southwestern tip of Attica, approximately 40 kilometers southeast of Athens. Administratively, it belongs to the Saronikos Municipality within the Attica Region. The area code covers Lagonisi itself and the surrounding settlements, including Saronida, Anavyssos, and parts of the broader Lavreotiki area. These localities are part of the Athens metropolitan area's expanding southern suburbs, known for their beaches and summer tourism.
Dialing Formats
When calling a landline in Lagonisi from within Greece, subscribers must dial the trunk prefix 0 followed by the area code 2291 and the subscriber number. The national significant number (NSN) for this area is 10 digits, comprising the area code (2291) and a 6-digit local subscriber number. For example, a local number might be formatted as 2291 234567.
For international callers, the country code +30 is used, followed by the area code without the leading 0, and the subscriber number. Thus, the same number would be dialed as +30 2291 234567 from abroad. It is important to note that Greek landline numbers are fixed-length, and the area code is always required, even for local calls within the same NDC.
Caller Instructions
Local callers: When dialing from another landline within the 2291 area, you must still include the full national number (0 2291 xxx xxx). Direct local dialing without the area code is not permitted in Greece's closed numbering plan.
International callers: Replace the trunk prefix 0 with the Greek country code +30. Ensure you have the correct international exit code for your country (e.g., 00 from most European countries, 011 from the US/Canada) before dialing +30 2291 xxx xxx.
Overlay and Numbering Considerations
As of the latest ITU-T E.164 national numbering plan, there is no overlay code for the 2291 area. The geographic area is served exclusively by this NDC. However, due to the proximity to Athens, some numbers may be used by businesses that have relocated but retained their original numbers. Subscribers in Lagonisi may also have numbers from the adjacent 2292 (Saronida) or 2294 (Lavrio) codes, but these are separate geographic areas.
For accurate billing and routing, always verify the complete 10-digit number. The Greek telecommunications regulator (EETT) oversees number allocation, and all fixed-line numbers are portable within geographic areas, meaning a subscriber can retain their 2291 number even if they move to a different operator's network within the same exchange area.
