Your Itinerary

Corricella Procida.jpg
Day 1

Alimos Marina - Agia Marina, Aegina

Sailing time:

2 hours 15 min

Your catamaran is waiting for you from 16:00 in Alimos Marina, located in the southern suburbs of Athens, approximately 30 km from the airport. After a warm welcome from your crew and settling into your cabin, departure is scheduled at 18:00 towards Agia Marina on Aegina.

This peaceful bay is the ideal first stop for an evening departure and offers easy access to the nearby Temple of Aphaia. Overnight mooring.

Day 2

Agia Marina - Molos Beach / Hydra

Sailing time:

4.5 hours

After breakfast on board, enjoy your first swim or take advantage of onboard water activities such as paddleboarding, kayaking, or snorkeling.

Optional morning excursion: visit the Temple of Aphaia (10-minute taxi ride). Dating back to the 5th century BC, it stands on a hilltop with panoramic sea views and is considered one of the three great ancient temples of Greece, alongside the Parthenon and Cape Sounion. (Entrance not included: approx. €10 per person.)

After lunch, sail to Molos Beach on Hydra, a secluded bay for the evening.

Optional late afternoon excursion: visit Hydra town by sea taxi (approx. 20 minutes). This romantic island is known for its amphitheatrical setting, stone mansions, cobbled streets, and unique charm — with no cars, only donkeys and boats. Overnight mooring.

Day 3

Molos Beach - Dokos Island - Spetses

Sailing time:

2 hours 45 min

After breakfast on board, sail to Dokos Island, where you can enjoy swimming and water activities either before or after lunch. Dokos is one of the most popular yachting destinations in the Saronic Gulf. This small, uninhabited island lies between the Peloponnese, Hydra, and Spetses, and is known for its peaceful atmosphere and untouched natural beauty.

Its most famous anchorage, Skintos Bay, offers crystal-clear waters and excellent shelter from the winds, making it an ideal spot to relax. With its wild landscapes, tranquility, and stunning sunset views, Dokos is a true escape from the modern world.

Later, sail to Spetses, an island with a rich naval heritage and a key role in the Greek War of Independence. It was here that the revolutionary flag was raised on April 3rd, 1821. The island has preserved its elegant character, with grand captain’s mansions reflecting its prosperous past.

Explore the picturesque old harbor and Dápia, the lively heart of the island, filled with cafés and shops. For a memorable experience, take a romantic horse-drawn carriage ride through the narrow cobbled streets and admire the island’s historic architecture. Overnight mooring.

Day 4

Spetses - Ermioni

Sailing time:

2 hours

After breakfast, we set sail toward Ermioni, with a refreshing swim stop and lunch at Aghios Emilianos along the way. By the afternoon, we arrive in Ermioni—a charming seaside village of around 2,600 residents on the southeastern coast of Argolida, known for its island-like atmosphere and relaxed pace. 

Set beside the pine-covered Bisti peninsula at the far end of the Argolic Peninsula, and overlooking the islands of Dokos and Hydra, Ermioni blends natural beauty with authentic Greek character. Traditionally rooted in olive cultivation, the village has gradually evolved into a welcoming destination while maintaining its local charm. 

For those who enjoy exploring on foot, the nearby Katafyki Gorge offers a rewarding short hike. This scenic trail connects Ermioni to the village of Fournoi and takes around 30 minutes to complete. Along the way, you’ll pass dramatic rock formations, caves, lush greenery, and the small Church of Saint Nicholas, built in 1740, with traces of medieval walls in its yard. Continue across the historic stone bridge to reach Fournoi, where pine forests and flowing waters create a truly picturesque setting.

Day 5

Ermioni - Poros

Sailing time:

4 hours

After breakfast, we sail toward Poros Island, with a swim stop and lunch at the beautiful bay of Soupia along the way. In the afternoon, we arrive in Poros, where the town unfolds across the hillsides as you enter the harbor—one of the most picturesque arrivals in the Saronic Gulf.

Poros offers a rich blend of history and laid-back island life. The Archaeological Museum showcases exhibits spanning from the Mycenaean Period (1600–1100 BC) through to Roman times, including fascinating artifacts recovered from ancient shipwrecks in the surrounding gulf.

Spend the afternoon soaking up the atmosphere along the waterfront with a coffee in a classic Greek sailing setting, or wander through the town’s narrow streets as they lead uphill to the island’s iconic landmark—the historic Clock Tower. From here, you’ll be rewarded with panoramic views over the town and harbor, the perfect spot to take it all in.

Day 6

Poros - Palaia Epidaurus

Sailing time:

4 hours

We start the day with an early morning sail to Love Bay, just outside Poros harbor. Enjoy breakfast on board followed by your first swim of the day in these crystal-clear waters. We then continue cruising toward Epidaurus, passing the Methana Peninsula with a stop at Aghios Georgios for lunch.

By the afternoon, we arrive in Ancient Epidaurus—also known as Palaia (Old) Epidaurus—a charming harbor town in the Saronic Gulf with a history that stretches back centuries. Built on the site of the ancient city, it lies tucked within a narrow bay, offering a unique blend of cultural heritage and natural beauty.

Surrounded by the pine-covered slopes of Mount Akros, the setting is truly striking. Locals often refer to the small peninsula here simply as “the Island,” thanks to its distinct character. Visitors can enjoy deep blue waters ideal for swimming and snorkeling, along with a relaxed atmosphere and well-developed local amenities.

Day 7

Palaia Epidaurus - Alimos

Sailing time:

5.5 hours

Breakfast on board. Visit the Small Ancient Theater, a few minutes walk away. For lunch, we’ll head to the picturesque and tiny Agistri Island, in a beautiful bay known mostly by sailors. Enjoy this last opportunity for a snorkeling, paddle or kayak session. In the afternoon, we head back to Alimos Marina in Athens, where you could decide to visit Athens old and lively center around Plaka after dinner.
