The Persian fleet was so badly reduced that it had to withdraw to Mykale in Asia Minor and could no longer threaten the Greek cities who could now release their armies to concentrate and defeat the Persian army at Plataia.

It also meant that the Persian fleet could no longer protect the supply fleet for the Persian forces, and half the Persian army had to be withdrawn back to Asia Minor, which evened up the armies at Plataia.
