This experience, in a nutshell

Enjoy an exclusive sailing experience among the most fascinating islands in Greece, aboard a 17-meter sailing yacht designed to offer comfort, privacy and relaxation.


This is a boutique cruise reserved for only 4 guests, with a professional crew on board consisting of an experienced skipper and hostess/chef. An experience with attention to every detail, far from crowded ferries and mass tourism.

It is not a simple rental, but a slow sailing trip in which time dilates and every day follows the rhythm of the sea.


What makes this experience special:

It is the ideal choice for couples, solo travelers looking for a premium experience, and small groups looking to share authentic moments in an intimate and elegant setting.

Imagine waking up at anchor, swimming in crystal clear waters, enjoying a freshly cooked lunch on board and reaching an island village in the late afternoon for a walk among white houses, shops and taverns by the sea. This is the most authentic way to discover Greece: by sailing.

Our itinerary

Boarding is scheduled for Saturday afternoon at the Olympic Marina in Lavrio. After the welcome on board and the briefing on equipment and safety measures, the evening continues with a typical dinner in a local tavern and a detailed presentation of the itinerary.

On Sunday we begin sailing towards Hydra, considered the queen of the Saronic Gulf. Its small marble-paved harbor, dominated by a Venetian bell tower, welcomes visitors among elegant cafes, art galleries, museums and tastefully restored old mansions. Here you can breathe a refined but authentic atmosphere, where time seems to pass slowly.

On Monday we set sail for Spetses. After a stop in a bay for a long swim and lunch on board, in the afternoon we moor in the old port. The island is elegant and lively, full of culture, beautiful residences and renowned restaurants. A walk through the narrow streets of the old town, among boutiques and galleries, is the perfect way to discover its charm.

On Tuesday you reach Poros, with its pastel-colored houses overlooking the sea and a relaxed atmosphere.

On Wednesday , a visit to the famous Theater of Epidaurus, one of the best-preserved ancient theaters in the world, known for its extraordinary acoustics, is planned.

On Thursday , the navigation continues towards Agistri, ideal for long swimming stops in clear and calm waters.

Friday arrival in Aegina. On Saturday morning return by ferry to Athens, reachable in about 40 minutes.

The itinerary may be subject to changes due to weather conditions and/or technical or logistical reasons, in order to ensure safety and a pleasant sailing experience for all participants.

Had a wonderful time sailing with Renato and Luciana on their 54 Jenneau sail boat "Lulu"! The boat is very comfortable and sea kindly and Renato is an expert captain and "Lulu" a fantastic chef meals onboard were delishious! They know the best ports harbors and bays for swimming and sightseeing ashore. It was a great vacation plus sailing vacation very highly recommended and would definitely go again!

From Kos to SANTORINI and IOS to discover all the Cyclades with a luxury boat - hostess/chef on board

Unique experience, with two professionals of the sea. The sailing holiday always reserves many adventures and unlike many other experiences it relies heavily on the sensitivity of the skipper to define the daily program based on the weather forecast. Renato, with his vast experience, managed to bring out the best out of the week, making us explore extraordinarily beautiful places. Lulú seasoned everything with style and attention to detail, delighting us with his excellent cuisine. The boat is gorgeous, spotless and reliable! Highly recommended.

From the Dodecanese to Turkey away from the crowds - Hostess / Chef on board

Beautiful boat, really well cared for. Each destination was successfully reached and each location was an interesting dock and place to visit. Excellent meals on board. Perfect cleanliness. Great tips for eating on dry land. I deliberately chose the "sailor's cabin" that I found fun and equipped. Physical agility required to take advantage of it. Too bad too hot in the afternoon for me that I'm used to rest. I had my own little fan for the night . Due to its location in the bow, it grants privacy. Impacting the impatience of the captain during maneuvers or practical activities on board. At first it made me feel out of place but after a clarification, we settled down. It can be hard for some owners to relate even with indolent guests on vacation but I seek relaxation and travel experiences. However, I would leave immediately on Lulu boat with Luciana and Renato, Silvia Michele Antonio and Paolo, TOP holiday companions

++wild bays visited ++food on the boat boat ++beautiful, ++maintained and ++comfortable +treated like private guests -not like paying customers -every act (wake up, breakfast, swimming, changing back to dry clothes, smoking..) was strictly timed. Without ANY obvious reason (plenty of time to sail to the next point) -6 sailing days booked. In total only 3 hours on sail, the rest on motor (no wind when we were out) & 2 days spent in harbors because the wind could be too strong. No effort made when noticed that we could have have (sportively) sailed. Frustrating to see sailing boats offshore while being on a beach/village -communication rather existent. When R. feels challenged by a question, he overreacts (Ex: by leaving the commands of the boat to us because we dared to ask if we could use sails instead of motor OR by calling us "new rich people" when we asked for the final count for the EUR 400 pp for the current expenses.) -age 48?!? -no instruction -feeling to be at the wrong place -------- SKIPPER ANSWER ------------- Dear Frederic, We are sorry that your first boat experience did not meet your expectations. On the boat there are rules to be respected regarding smoking (unthinkable to smoke while sailing and in the cabin!), order and cleanliness so that everyone is comfortable. The itinerary you have chosen (From Athens to Kos) is an adventurous choice for those who love to travel many miles. Unfortunately the wind cannot be booked and when it is too strong for safety reasons we stop. Sailing cannot be learned in a week and neither can education. Leave the cabin in the shameful condition in which you left it (literally throw away sheets) and then ask for the final report, which, as you were told, can be consulted at any time and available to everyone (with receipts and invoices) on the table from correspondence, two days after finishing the cruise, it is incomprehensible. It was not a pleasant experience for us.
