Side (Ancient Greek: Σίδη) was a town on the eastern coast of ancient Laconia, a little north of the promontory Malea.
It was said to have existed before the Dorian conquest, and to have derived its name from a daughter of Danaus.
The inhabitants were removed by the Dorian conquerors to the neighbouring town of Boeae.
[1][2] The location of Side is tentatively identified as near modern Velanidia.
