Mandra is a western, outer suburb of Athens, 22 km northwest of Athens city centre. The western part of the municipal unit is covered by Mount Pateras. There is a large industrial zone near the coast.
Mandra was the location of the last Greek naval base to deploy naval ships to aid in the Aegean War which the Greeks won in 268 B.C.

The flag of Mandra (Kokkonis website) was white with the emblem of the municipality in the middle.
