SAMPLE ITINERARY

Day 1
ALIMOS / CAPE SOUNION

Our departure location is Alimos Marina, Athens. As usual, after a lazy morning, we will be leading the provisioning raiding party, while the skippers will get checked in on their yachts. When we are finally released, off we go to Cape Sounion to visit the temple of Poseidon. After all, as sailors, we must pay our respect to Old Poseidon and make sure that he blesses us with calm seas during the week. The sunset from the temple is breathtaking. We will be at anchor there for the night and dinghy to shore to one of the local tavernas for dinner. Being at anchor in the dark and looking at the illuminated temple of Poseidon up the hill is a magical experience.

Day 2
AEGINA

From Cape Sounion we sail to the island of Aegina where we will dock for the night at the Aegina Marina and have dinner at a local taverna. The following morning, prior to leaving for our next destination, you have the option of visiting the temple of Aphaia. Capt. Belen will give you a detailed history of this temple.

Day 3
POROS

From Aegina to Poros is about 17NM. We will spend the night in this beautiful town where, of course, we will enjoy the local specialties in one of the port’s tavernas. Poros is a very touristic and lively vacation destination, and you will have no problems finding entertainment there.

Day 4
METHANA

This will be a short sail when we aim for the peninsula of Methana. This volcanic peninsula has thermal spas where, after a hike to the volcanic crater, we can rest our old bones in healing mineral waters. Even if you are not a scientist, you will guess the origin of the name methane gas. We will spend the night in the nearby typical fishing village of Vathy. Belen describes it as gorgeous and not to be missed. This is a tiny village with limited docking access. In case we do not find enough space, we will spend the night at the dock in Methana.

Day 5
EPIDAVROS

Not to be missed will be the old city of Epidavros where a visit to the temple of Asklepios and its famous theater, the largest well-preserved one in Greece. Asklepios was the God of Medicine and the medical professionals among our sailors will not want to miss this land tour.

Day 6
MONI ISLAND

We have to make our way back towards Athens but we will spend the night on Moni Island, near Aegina, where peacock and deer roam freely. They are not afraid of humans and will make for great photo opportunities. Dinner on board.

Day 7
RETURN TO ALIMOS

This is the last day of our trip, and we must return to our base but not without some more sailing, swimming, and snorkeling before we arrive back at the base around 17:00. You can check in at a local hotel or spend the last night on the yacht and disembark by 9:00 am Saturday morning.

Testimonials
My husband and I have joined 3 flotillas and have found that Captain Jean’s experience as a sailor and his knowledge of the cruising waters along with “Admiral” Mila’s knack for finding the finest restaurants and interesting places to visit on shore makes Med Sailing Adventures a fantastic, one-of-a-kind vacation! We look forward to many more trips with them.
Dave & Dody - Oregon

Just wanted to say “Thank you” for the incredible sailing trip. You both not only were incredible hosts in introducing us to the area and all the beautiful towns but you also made the sailing both interactive and enjoyable.

Craig & Annie - Ohio
It was fantastic to have somebody who knows the areas, the vendors and the best restaurants! I would never have found such hidden gems if it were not for their leadership. I had a great time, made new friends who love to sail and enjoy good food!
