7-Day Sailing Trip In The Greek Islands Starting From Athens

Join us on board and visit more than 5 different islands in 7 days. Each island, each port, each traditional restaurant is there waiting for you, to share all its mysteries and accommodate you in the most pleasant way. We love the sea, we love the party, we love the experience.

Saturday – DAY 1 Athens
Possible activities – embarkation, provisioning, relaxing, Glyfada by tram. Check in, allocation, embarkation and meeting the Skipper. After that, leisure time to explore Athens by night. We can propose restaurants, clubs or nice things to see around the area.

The city with the most glorious history in the world, a city worshiped by gods and people, a magical city. The enchanting capital of Greece has always been a birthplace for civilization. It is the city where democracy was born and most of the wise men of ancient times. The most important civilization of ancient world flourished in Athens and relives through some of the world’s most formidable edifices.

Who hasn’t heard of the Acropolis of Athens? Photos and history of the most famous archaeological monument in Europe have made the world tour causing feelings of admiration by thousands of people. Acropolis is nominated to be one of the 7 wonders of modern world. In fact the trademark of Athens is one of the favorites. The Holy Rock of Acropolis dates back to the 5th BC, the famous Golden Age of Periklis. Athens met times of bloom and decline, but still shines under the Attic sky gazing the future. Still sparkling like the marbles of Parthenon and the limpid white of Pentelic marble.

Sunday – DAY 2 Poros
Possible activities – Walk around the island and visit the famous clock on the top of the hill. Aegean Party Life Poros:

Set sail to Pors at approx. 10am. We make a swim stop on the way and approximately at 4-5pm we moor at Poros. Must see in Poros island the sunset from the old Clock tower on the top of the Hill. There is also the option of going to the Love Bay for swimming- 15 min by walk – or renting an ATV and go around the area. We can propose restaurants and bars for the leisure time at night.

The town of Poros is built in the shape of an amphitheatre over two hills. In antiquity Poros consisted in fact of two islands, Sphería and Kalávria, but the last explosion of the Méthana volcano in 273 BC radically changed the morphology of the area. Sphería was cut off from Méthana, and in this way Póros took its present-day form. Lush pine trees vegetation, crystal clear beaches, a lively waterfront adorned with shops, cosy cafes and restaurants, a picturesque capital (it has been declared protected settlement) with grand traditional mansions and picturesque cobbled streets, as well as a wide selection of entertainment venues are the ingredients of this quiet, yet cosmopolitan, destination that attracts visitors from all age groups.

Monday – DAY 3 Hydra
Possible activities – Donkey rides and cliff diving. Aegean Party Life Hydra:

Definitely the most most exciting day of the week. We sail to Hydra. No swim stop, since Hydra is an amazing place to spend your whole day. No cars or motorbikes are allowed. Plenty of activities to do like donkey riding – this is a must do – cliff diving, swimming, relaxing at sunset bars or go aroundthe market for shopping. At night again we can propose restaurants and bars.

Just 37 nautical miles from Athens in the Argo-Saronic Gulf, the long, narrow island of Hydra (or Ydra) is both cosmopolitan and tranquil. Donkeys and boats are the only form of transport as laws prohibit automobiles (except for a few small garbage trucks), mopeds, and even bicycles. Due to the island’s status as a national historic monument, strict building laws also regulate development, protecting Hydra’s traditional architectural style and enhancing its old-world charm.

Aside from your feet, donkeys and boats are the only means of transport on Hydra. Hydra’s municipality covers 72 square kilometers. The main town is built amphitheatrically around the island’s main harbor, lined with large and small yachts, as well as traditional caicques, or fishing boats. Shops, hotels, cafes, and tavernas line the port, while cobblestone streets and alleyways wind along the coast and climb the steep, rocky hillsides, leading to the island’s various neighborhoods and villages.
Though Hydra has a year-round population of less than 2000 (per 2011 census), which can swell to 6000 over the summer, the interior is nearly uninhabited..

Tuesday – DAY 4 Ermioni

Ermioni (Ancient Hermione) can be divided into three sections. The commercial Limani port and harbour is located on the Northern side, with the lively Mandrakia on the Southern side of the peninsula. At the Eastern end of the town, is the archaeological pine-cladded forest area called the Bisti. Here one can enjoy leisurely walks at any time of the day, as there is plenty of shade, and visit the 5th Cen. BC temple of Athena, and other ancient, Byzantine and medieval monuments. You can also swim in the clear blue sea, from the rocky coves along the Southern side of the Bisti, which overlook the islands of Dokos and Hydra. Books refer to Ermioni as a seaside town of captivating beauty.
