Sailing across the Greek Mediterranean

Hosted by

TranslateMachine Translated
In the land of the gods we sail from a beautiful bay with ancient temples, through crystal clear water, to the next bay with an authentic harbor town. Together we decide from day to day how long we will sail and where exactly we will go. Greece is a great country for sailing beginners, the winds are steady and the Mediterranean rarely rough. You can sail along relaxed and let yourself be initiated into the secrets of the boat. In the evening we cook together or go to taste the local specialties. My favorite: feta in puff pastry with honey.

1/5
Too many hours on the boat (up to 7-9 hours per day). Too few shore excursions. Advertised moorings left out. I canceled the trip.

Trip Itinerary
1

Athens

Day 1-2
From Athens airport it takes about 1 hour to get to Marina Alimos Kalamaki. It would be good if you could be at the port by early afternoon (2/15pm). We will meet at the port on the first day, go shopping together and get to know each other over dinner. During the trip we will cook on board, but also try the harbor restaurants. As we feel like it. On the first day there will be a briefing for you and your trip mates and then we will sleep the night on the boat in the harbor so we can get used to the gentle rocking (better than any cradle!).

Ermioni

Day 2-3
After an invigorating breakfast we cast off, off we go to the Mediterranean Sea. We sail about 3-5 hours a day, depending on the weather and mood. If there is an absolute lull, don't hang your head, but take a dip in the refreshing water!
3

Spetses

Day 3-4
Every day is different and every day is just beautiful. Today we continue on the sailing route southeast past Dokos to Spetses. In the course of our trip, a fantastic bay awaits us in the northwest, where we lie very quiet and where we will enjoy the stars after the sundowner.
4

Idra

Day 4-5
If we feel like culture, today we sail only a few miles to the port of Hydra. This unique port, where the only means of transportation are donkeys and horse-drawn carriages, leaves nothing to be desired. During the day we can stroll through the alleys of the town and treat ourselves to a frappé, the typical Greek iced coffee, while listening to relaxing music. If you dare, jump off the cliffs in front of the bar into the crystal clear Mediterranean Sea.

Idra

Day 5-6
We may have indulged in one or two Greek wines in the taverns of Hydra harbor and our day starts a little later than the others. We can simply choose the most beautiful bay of the island and have an extensive bathing day.
6

Poros

Day 6-7
Strengthened, tanned and refreshed, we set sail today towards Poros. Here we have this excellent feta in puff pastry with honey ;).
7

Athens

Day 7-8
Our sailing adventure ends, as it should, with a proper sail from Poros to Athens. You will have the chance to apply everything you have learned during the last week, to tackle, to sail along. So that when you arrive in the harbor you realize that sailing is a sport. And how relaxed you feel after a week of water, sun and wind.
