Maritime area near Greece (6,3)

I believe the answer is:

aegean sea

(Other definitions for aegean sea that I've seen before include "Greek island home?" , "Part of the Mediterranean between Greece and Turkey" , "Stretch of water between Turkey and Greece" , "Part of Med" , "Area around Greece" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
