Itinerary
Your day begins in the morning at Zea Marina in Piraeus where you board the luxury sailing vessel alongside fellow travellers. Settle into a comfortable spot on deck as you leave the port and start cruising across the Saronic Gulf. Enjoy welcome refreshments before arriving at your first destination, typically the peaceful island of Agistri, where you have free time to explore beaches, village streets, or local cafés. Continue sailing to a scenic spot near Moni or Metopi for a refreshing swim and snorkeling in the clear Aegean waters. Afterwards, return to the boat for a delicious Greek buffet lunch served with wine, beer, and soft drinks while soaking in the sea views. The cruise then moves on to the larger island of Aegina where you can stroll through the harbour, sample local pistachio products, or relax by the waterfront before the return voyage to Athens in the evening.
Who is this experience best for
This full-day luxury cruise is ideal for travellers who want a leisurely island-hopping experience with good food, drinks, and opportunities to swim, snorkel, and explore multiple Greek islands without the hassle of planning their own route. It suits couples, families, and small groups looking for a relaxed and social day at sea with plenty of scenic views, cultural stops, and local cuisine included.
Insider notes
Swimming and snorkeling opportunities depend on weather and sea conditions, so bring appropriate swimwear, sunscreen, and a towel for comfort. Time ashore on Agistri and Aegina allows you to explore at your own pace, but optional rentals or excursions (such as bikes) are typically paid locally. Hotel pickup and drop-off services are available if selected at booking but are arranged the evening before the cruise, so ensure your contact details are kept up-to-date. Comfortable shoes and sunglasses are recommended for walking around the island towns.
