AILING YACHTS. If sailing is your passion, we can also provide you with a beautiful day sailing boat, for the ultimate feeling of freedom. Unfortunately, during high season, it's often hard to charter a sailing yacht for a day - most of them book up for weekly charters months in advance. However our extensive network of providers and the yachts we have under our management will usually give us the option to provide a high standard yacht for your day cruise. Sailing yachts can be hired either with the option of an experienced skipper who will take care of you or as bareboats.

CATAMARANS. A lot of space compared to a monohull allows the crew to “spread” on the boat and have more private space ,especially if you wish to have many people on board. A catamaran rarely heels more than 5 degrees granting a quite flat position on the water, which helps a lot to keep drink and food on the table and allows comfortable sleeping without rolling in the berth. This kind of yacht is usually a perfect solution for large groups of people who wish to enjoy a day cruise to near destinations in comfort, luxury and style.

The Saronic Gulf & Argolic Gulf & Peloponesse east coastis the recommended sailing area for those taking their first sailing holiday in Greece or their first bareboat charter after sailing school. The new Athens international airport provides easy access to the charter bases of Alimos (Kalamaki) marina and Lavrion port in Athens.The area has calm waters, requires a little to some sailing competence / experience, offers all kinds of amenities , sightseeing and a good choice between secluded bays and quite coves to adventure, fun, night life and activities corresponding to the style of “organized tourism”.
The islands situated in the Saronic Gulf southwest of Athens are among the most beautiful and interesting of all the Greek islands. They are favorites close to one another, usually within a two or three hour sail. Long stretches of sandy beaches, fragrant pine forest, and rocky capes against a backdrop of brilliant sunshine and crystal blue water provide an infinite variety of scenic beauty.
The cultures and people are as varied as the settings, luring visitors with pottery, sponges, pistachios, and almond cakes, which are available at shops and restaurants along the narrow, winding streets of the island towns. There are busy cosmopolitan islands as well as quiet unspoilt secluded islands. The seafood is deliciously fresh and the highlights of this itinerary are the schools of dolphins which will accompany you from island to island, jumping over the bow as you go.!
