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.

The Sailboat Dufour 37 can take routes towards Aegina, Agistri, Poros or Cape Sounion depending on available time, always with the forecast as reference. The team helps organise timing, food preferences, possible stops and group needs so the outing feels fluid.

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 8 people. If a detail needs confirmation, we review exact configuration, crew and regulations before closing the booking.
