The plan opens with a simple choice: prioritise sailing, swimming or lunch. From there, the boat heads towards Salamis.
The first reference can be Salamis, with time for a swim or short walk before continuing towards Peristeria.
After lunch, the route leaves room to approach the Faliro coast or extend the anchorage if the group prefers to stay in the water.
At the end of the day, the boat returns to Athens with a balanced mix of sailing, swimming and shared time on board.

Our experience with Bavaria C42 in Athens and the Saronic Gulf
Want to sail the Saronic Gulf without handling logistics yourself? Bavaria C42 offers a practical Athens base and very flexible routes.
| Departure ports | The indicated base is Athens; the exact boarding point is confirmed with the booking. |
|---|---|
| Events and celebrations | The sailboat can adapt to private plans, discreet celebrations or company outings. |
| Advice | We advise on route, timing, forecast and optional services so decisions are not improvised. |

A good yacht outing is not only about the boat but about how time is organised. Around Athens there are nearby options such as Aegina, Agistri, Salamis or the Attica coast, and fuller routes towards Poros, Hydra or Kythnos when duration allows. The content prioritises practical decisions: booked duration, forecast, onboard comfort and room to adjust the plan.
Book SailboatFrequently asked questions
Can it be booked for a private celebration from Athens?
Yes. The Sailboat Bavaria C42 can be shaped as a private outing, relaxed celebration or corporate day with a more personal format than an event ashore. The key is to set duration, route, services and pace before departure.
| Private celebrations? | Birthdays, anniversaries or family gatherings can adapt to the rhythm of the group. |
|---|---|
| Corporate events? | A good alternative for incentives, informal meetings, team building or a different day with clients. |
| Custom atmosphere | Music, route pace and stops are adjusted to the group profile. |
| Catering and menus | We can advise on provisioning, catering, snacks or restaurants depending on the route. |
| Tailor-made activities | Swimming, snorkelling, paddle surf if available, harbour walks or longer anchorages. |
| Comfortable space | The sailboat is organised to provide rest areas, shade and time together. |
| Professional advice | We help choose route, schedule and services without promising details not included in the listing. |
| Logistics handled | Timings, boarding point and practical recommendations are coordinated before departure. |
| Tailor-made experiences | The day can be calm, active, food-focused or centred on sailing, depending on the group. |
| Privacy and exclusivity | A private booking avoids sharing the experience with people outside the group. |
| Trip memories | The Saronic Gulf offers attractive photo settings without forcing the route. |
Is previous experience needed to charter it?
Not necessarily. Depending on charter mode and available licence, sailing with a professional skipper is possible. If bareboat charter is considered, requirements, experience and documents are checked before confirmation.
Can Athens be combined with Methana and nearby islands?
The Saronic Gulf allows each plan to be adapted to the group. Common ideas include:
- Methana and quiet Poros: Departure from Athens with stops at Methana, Poros and, if there is margin, Neorio.
- Agistri and Aponisos: A more travel-focused option combining Agistri, Aponisos and an afternoon stop near Skala.
- Flexible half-day or full-day route: Plan adjusted to forecast, boarding times and preferences between swimming, sailing or lunch ashore.
All routes are adjusted to actual sailing time, sea conditions and your interests: relaxation, restaurants, snorkelling, harbour walks or quiet anchorages.
Can we eat on board or in a restaurant?
Both options are possible depending on the route. Eating on board gives more freedom at anchor; booking a restaurant lets you go ashore and discover a harbour.
How many people can board?
The capacity indicated for this listing is 8 people. If a detail needs confirmation, we review exact configuration, crew and regulations before closing the booking.
