Welcome on board our traditional motor sailer! Begin your day with a warm welcome of coffee, orange juice, cakes, and cookies as you step onto our boat. Find a relaxing spot on our specially designed vessel, ensuring comfort for everyone, as we embark on an unforgettable journey to the hidden gems of the Saronic Islands, just off the coast of Athens. Our first stop is Agistri Island, a picturesque location known for its lush greenery and crystal-clear beaches. Upon disembarking at Megalochori village, you have several options to explore this charming island. We highly recommend joining our optional bicycle tour from Megalochori to Skala. This tour is a fantastic way to experience the island’s stunning landscapes. Pedal through scenic routes, enjoy the fresh air, and take in the breathtaking views of the coastline. For the adventurous, visit the beaches of Skliri and Chalkiada, renowned for their natural beauty and favored by campers. Alternatively, you can relax at a seaside café, explore the quaint village with its iconic white and blue houses, or swim in the pristine waters along the coastline. Our next destination is Moni Island, a small, uninhabited gem renowned for its unspoiled beauty and protected wildlife, including peacocks and deer. While we do not disembark here, you can swim in the clear, inviting waters surrounding the island. This spot is perfect for snorkeling and diving, offering a glimpse into the vibrant marine life. If weather or other factors prevent us from visiting Moni, we will instead explore Metopi, a picturesque islet with turquoise waters, sandy beaches, and solitary vineyards. As we continue our journey, indulge in a traditional Greek feast featuring a Mediterranean buffet with the freshest local ingredients. Enjoy unlimited soft drinks, beer, and wine as you savor the delicious flavors and relax on deck. Our final stop is Aegina, a charming island famous for its pistachio orchards and ancient temples. Here, you have multiple options to explore. You can follow our tour leader for a delightful pistachio tasting experience, sampling various products made by local producers. Alternatively, join an optional walking tour to the archaeological museum and the Temple of Apollo, learning about the island’s rich history and culture. For those who prefer independent exploration, wander through the picturesque streets filled with cafés, shops offering handmade jewelry, and local products. You can also take a swim at the nearby beach. The trip concludes back at Marina Zeas, where you’ll disembark with memories of a day filled with beautiful sights, delicious food, and new experiences. Join us for a day cruise that offers the perfect blend of relaxation, adventure, and cultural exploration. From the lush landscapes of Agistri to the historic charm of Aegina, this is an experience you won’t want to miss.
