This experience, in a nutshell

Our sailing cruise from Athens to Santorini opens with adventure and discovery, promising an unforgettable experience along one of the most fascinating itineraries in the Aegean Sea. Thanks to the prevailing wind blowing in our sails, we will sail with a tailwind or downwind, taking advantage of the exceptional performance of our boat to glide fast on the waves, in an exciting dance with the sea.



Every day we discover a new island, sailing in the morning. Our stops are mostly in remote bays, oases of peace and natural beauty where crystal clear water and pristine beaches welcome us for moments of relaxation and refreshing baths, away from the crowds and immersed in a paradise of our own.



There will also be stops near the main villages of the islands, often located on top of hills from which you can enjoy a breathtaking view of the sea that surrounds us. The evening walk to the heart of the island turns into an opportunity to savor the local culture, among narrow alleys and cobbled squares, discovering the traditional architecture and the small hidden treasures that each island holds.



The conclusion of this cruise is a true triumph of nature: the spectacular navigation inside the caldera of Santorini. Entering this natural amphitheater, surrounded by the imposing walls of the caldera, is an experience that takes your breath away, with the landscape of Santorini revealing itself in all its magnificence, an unforgettable encounter between the deep blue of the sea and the candid white houses clinging to the rocks.


To make this cruise even more special will be the culinary skills of your skippers, true masters in preparing delicious meals that are one of the highlights of our adventures. With a focus on the use of fresh and healthy ingredients, the meals on board promise to be not only a moment of sharing and conviviality, but also a gastronomic experience that will delight everyone's palate.


This cruise from Athens to Santorini is not just a journey through the Greek islands, but an adventure that combines the passion for sailing with the discovery of breathtaking landscapes, fascinating cultures, moments of pure tranquility, and excellent cuisine. A unique experience that will remain etched in the hearts and memories of those lucky enough to live it, marking the beginning of an eternal love story with the sea and the islands of Greece.

Leg 1

Departure from Athens (Lavrio)

The first day of our sailing adventure begins with boarding in the port of Lavrio, Athens, in the late afternoon. Our boat, known for its excellent sailing performance, stable and fast, is waiting for us ready to sail towards the horizon. After getting familiar with the cabins that will be our houseboat for the next few days, we cast off the moorings heading towards a quiet bay, ideal for our first night.

The evening turns into a magical moment as soon as the skippers, true chefs of the sea, begin to prepare dinner. Dinner under the stars, on board our reliable sailboat, thus becomes an unforgettable experience, an opportunity to share stories and expectations while we immerse ourselves in the unique atmosphere of the night sea.

This start promises a holiday full of discovery, adventure and culinary pleasure, guided by a boat that perfectly combines speed, stability and comfort.

Leg 2

Column

After a hearty breakfast, our boat, known for its exceptional stability and speed, guides us through the deep blue waters to the island of Kythnos.

The island welcomes us with its wonderful bay of Kolona. This paradise on earth, famous for its unique golden sand beach that stretches between two bodies of water creating a natural isthmus, is surrounded by bright turquoise waters. Here, the opportunity to relax on the beach or dive in to explore the underwater world enriches our experience, allowing us to savor the tranquility and unspoiled beauty of the environment.

As the sun goes down, the day ends with another exceptional dinner on board. The skippers, who have once again become talented chefs, prepare dishes that delight the palate, expertly blending local flavors with their culinary creativity.

Leg 3

Serifos


As the sun rises, we set sail for Serifos. We glide over the waves with our sailboat propelled by the strong wind.

Arrive at the island of Serifos and anchor in a picturesque bay, surrounded by striking rock formations. A relaxing afternoon, with the opportunity to swim in the crystal clear waters, stroll along the beach or simply enjoy a book or idleness on board.

We spend the evening exploring the quaint village of Serifos. A nice walk through cobbled alleys will allow you to savor the authentic atmosphere of the place. Dinner in the village, immersed in the local culture and typical flavors of the island.

A day that mixes the beauty of sailing with the discovery of local life in Serifos.


Leg 4

Sifnos

The fourth day of our sailing holiday is for us to explore Sifnos, an island in the Aegean Sea known for its wild beauty and pristine coastlines. Our navigation takes us along the west coast of the island, where several secret bays are hidden gems, some of which are completely uninhabited and accessible only by sea.

Our boat, agile and fast, once again proves to be perfect for today's adventure, guiding us to the most picturesque bay on the island, a true pirate retreat. This long, narrow bay is almost invisible from a distance, hiding among the rocks like a well-kept secret. Its crystal-clear waters and golden beach that sparkle in the sun's rays create a postcard-perfect backdrop.

As is now tradition, skippers turn chefs, preparing on board a dinner that celebrates local flavors with a touch of culinary mastery.

Leg 5

Natural rocks artwork

The fifth day sees us continue our adventure on a sailboat, sailing south with our boat that, reliable and fast, takes us to a destination of unprecedented beauty: Poliaigos. This island, the largest of the uninhabited ones in Greece, is a hidden treasure in the Aegean Sea, accessible only by sea, and promises us an unparalleled exploration experience.

As we approach Poliaigos, we are greeted by a true symphony of colors and shapes. The rock formations, shaped by time, wind and sea, draw a panorama of natural arches, secret caves and stacks that seem to dance on the waves.

The evening finds us once again enjoying the culinary skills of the skippers, who, in this idyllic setting, prepare a dinner that celebrates the flavors of the sea and the surrounding land. As the sun sets, tinging the rocks around us pink and orange, we let ourselves be lulled by the unique atmosphere of Poliaigos.


Leg 6

Folegadros

At the first light of dawn, taking the opportunity to greet the sun that emerges majestically from the sea, our sailboat heads towards the pretty island of Folegandros, which reveals itself on the horizon with its unmistakable silhouette.

The navigation to Folegandros is smooth and fast, thanks to the stability and speed of our boat, which allows us to reach the bay of Vathi in a short time. Here, an afternoon of pure relaxation awaits us: time stands still as we dive into the crystal clear waters, let ourselves be embraced by the sun or explore the underwater wonders with mask and snorkel.

In the late afternoon, our spirit of exploration guides us to the Panagia Monastery, perched on a hill that offers a breathtaking panoramic view of the island and the boundless sea, especially when the sunset tinges the sky with intense and warm colors.

With the arrival of night, we immerse ourselves in the effervescence of the Chora of Folegandros that pulsates with life.

Leg 7

Caldera of Santorini

Leaving the enchanting Folegandros behind, we sail with our boat, agile and fast, pushed by the Meltemi towards a legendary destination: the caldera of Santorini. 

Entering Santorini's caldera is a moment of pure wonder. This immense submerged volcanic caldera rises majestically from the sea, offering us a natural spectacle of immeasurable beauty. We anchor at a strategic point, where we can dive into the dark and mineral-rich thermal waters, a unique experience that combines adventure and relaxation in an unparalleled landscape.

As the sun begins its descent towards the horizon, the light of the sunset envelops everything, transforming the caldera into a dreamlike landscape.

This natural spectacle, observed from the unique perspective of our sailboat, will remain etched in our memory as the most magical moment of the trip.

Leg 8

Day of Greetings

Our last day on this amazing adventure opens with a nice breakfast. The sailboat gently rocks us as we prepare for the moment of goodbyes.

And so, your sailing cruise comes to an end, it's time to say goodbye. Exchanges of hugs and the promise to meet again in the future among the enchantment of these Greek islands.
