Day 1

Athens

Begin your sailing adventure from Alimos Marina in Athens, one of Greece’s largest and most accessible marinas. After checking in and provisioning, set sail for Aegina, a charming island just under 20 nautical miles away. Once docked, take a short trip inland to visit the majestic Temple of Aphaia, one of Greece’s best-preserved ancient temples. Back in the town, enjoy a stroll along the harbor lined with pistachio vendors, cafés, and neoclassical facades. Dine at a seaside taverna and sample the island’s famous pistachio-based dishes.

Day 2

Hydra

Depart Aegina and head southwest toward the enchanting island of Hydra, known for its stone mansions, vibrant artist community, and peaceful atmosphere. As Hydra is famously car-free, you’ll be greeted by donkeys and water taxis upon arrival. Explore the cobbled streets, visit the Historical Archive Museum, or simply relax at a waterfront café in Hydra Town. For a quiet swim, walk to Avlaki Beach or take a boat to Vlichos. Enjoy dinner with a view as the sun sets over the harbor.

On your final full sailing day, begin your return toward Athens with an optional midday swim stop at Agkistri, a small island with pristine waters and hidden coves. Drop anchor near Aponisos Beach or Dragonera Bay for a refreshing dip. In the afternoon, continue on to Alimos Marina, arriving in time for a relaxed dinner back in the city. Spend your last night enjoying Athens’ vibrant seaside neighborhoods like Palaio Faliro or Glyfada.
