Itinerary ideas

1. DAY: Swimming, Attica coast and sunset return

The plan opens with a simple choice: prioritise sailing, swimming or lunch. From there, the boat heads towards Cape Sounion.
The first reference can be Cape Sounion, with time for a swim or short walk before continuing towards Vouliagmeni.

After lunch, the route leaves room to approach the Temple of Poseidon seen from the sea 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.

2. DAYS: Short passage through Poros and Saronic bays and calm return

3. DAYS: Athens, blue anchorages and historic harbours

Day 1:
From Athens, the boat sails towards Agistri, alternating deck time, swimming and a simple meal. If conditions allow, the night is planned near Skala.

    With friends it worked very well because we could decide as we went whether to extend the swim or approach a harbour. The space on board Dufour 530 helped a lot.

Frequently asked questions

Can it be booked for a private celebration from Athens?

Yes. The Sailboat Dufour 530 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 Poros and nearby islands?

The Saronic Gulf allows each plan to be adapted to the group. Common ideas include:

  • Poros and Saronic bays: Departure from Athens with stops at Poros, Love Bay and, if there is margin, Russian Bay.
  • Aegina and Moni: A more travel-focused option combining Aegina, Moni island and an afternoon stop near Perdika.
  • 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 10 people. If a detail needs confirmation, we review exact configuration, crew and regulations before closing the booking.
