Athina Sat was a Cypriot digital satellite pay television service owned by the limited company of the same name. Launched in May 2005 and was the first Cypriot-owned DTH satellite provider in Cyprus. It was one of two satellite platforms, the other being Nova.
Athina Sat offered Cypriot subscribers an array of programming choices from News, Sports, Movies, Children's, Entertainment as well as popular Cypriot TV networks.
In March 2008 Athinsat decided to shut its doors due to the loss of several channels, including popular Cypriot networks LTV, and Alfa TV, which re-signed with Nova.
