Saronic Gulf - Grand Voyage

  • Day 1

    Marina Alimos → Perdika (Aegina) – approx. 22 NM

    You start your cruise at Alimos Marina in Athens. The first leg is a relaxing sail to the island of Aegina, to the port of Perdika. This charming seaside town invites you to stroll through its narrow streets, taste the famous pistachios (a local delicacy), and enjoy the sunset over the sea.

  • Day 2

    Perdika → Spetses – approx. 40 NM

    A longer leg to Spetses, one of the most elegant and green islands in the Saronic Gulf. Before anchoring, it’s worth visiting the historic town center, taking walks in the shade of cypress trees, and spending the evening in stylish tavernas.

  • Day 3

    Spetses → Nafplio – approx. 24 NM

    You head to the charming Nafplio – the former capital of Greece. Castle walls, cobbled streets, waterfront cafés, and a walk around the Palamidi fortress make for a perfect day.

  • Day 4

    Nafplio → Porto Cheli – approx. 22 NM

    A short sail to Porto Cheli – a peaceful seaside town. Clear waters, cozy coves, and quiet swimming spots make it an ideal place to relax before the next day of sailing.

  • Day 5

    Porto Cheli → Hydra – approx. 16 NM

    Hydra is a car-free island, where donkeys replace vehicles, and the streets are filled with a calm, old-world atmosphere. It’s the perfect place for walking, exploring quaint alleys, and relaxing at intimate waterfront tavernas.

  • Day 6

    Hydra → Poros – approx. 13 NM

    The next day is a short sail to Poros — a green island filled with pine trees and flower baskets in home gardens. It’s time for a lazy afternoon, exploring the port town, and swimming in crystal-clear waters.

  • Day 7

    Poros → Marina Alimos – approx. 30 NM

    The final day of the cruise takes you back to Athens. In the evening, it’s worth spending time at the marina, ending the journey with dinner in Plaka, or taking one last walk through the city in the glow of the setting sun.
