Itinerary
Begin your morning in Athens with boarding the sailing vessel at the designated marina as you leave the urban backdrop behind and head out into the Saronic Gulf. Settle in with refreshing morning drinks and pastries as the boat makes its way toward the first island, Agistri. Upon arrival enjoy free time to explore the island’s beaches, relax on shore, or wander seaside paths. Next, anchor near the uninhabited isle of Moni or Methopi where you can swim, snorkel, or float in the clear waters before returning onboard for a generous Greek buffet lunch. After lunch the cruise continues to Aegina, where you have time to stroll the port, visit local shops, or soak up island culture at your leisure. Throughout the day the professional crew attends to your comfort and provides background on the scenery. Return to the home port in the late afternoon or early evening, concluding the full-day sailing experience.
Who is this experience best for
This all-day sailing cruise is suited for travelers who want to explore multiple Greek islands in one relaxed itinerary while enjoying swimming, snorkeling, and scenic sailing. It is ideal for couples, families, and small groups who appreciate leisurely exploration on and off the boat, local cuisine, and socializing with fellow passengers. The inclusion of free time at each island stop also makes it a good choice for those who enjoy independent wandering and cultural discovery in a relaxed maritime setting.
Insider notes
Participants should be prepared for a long day on the water, often around 10 hours including sailing and island stops. Weather and sea conditions can influence the sequence of island visits and swimming opportunities, with safety as the priority, and adjustments made as needed. Comfortable swimwear, sun protection, and a hat are recommended, as much of the day is spent on deck under the sun. Optional activities such as bike rentals on Agistri are available locally but are not included in the cruise package.
