Graea or Graia was a city on the coast of Boeotia in ancient Greece. Its site is located near modern Dramesi in Paralia Avlidas.
Graea is listed under Boeotia in Homer's Catalogue of Ships in the Iliad. It seems to have included the city of Oropus, though by the fifth century BCE it was probably a kome of that city. According to Pausanias the name was a shortcut of the original name Tanagraia, who was daughter of the river-god Asopos. Graea was a greater area including Aulis, Mycalessus, Harma etc. It is also described by some sources as a city; Fossey argues for its identification with the hill of Dhrámesi 8 km from Tanagra, while others suggest it is identical with Oropus itself.
