Saronic Sailing Adventure – Culture, Food & Hidden Gems

‍

Our Saronic Gulf route isn’t just about sailing – it’s a deep dive into authentic Greece, shaped by ancient history, unforgettable food and real local connections. Here's a taste of what you’ll experience:

‍

🏛 Epidaurus – Ancient Acoustics & Dinner Under Orange Trees

Visit the UNESCO-listed theatre of Epidaurus, the best-preserved in the world. Its legendary acoustics allow you to hear a coin drop on stage from the very last row!
After exploring the site, we’ll have dinner in our favourite family-run taverna, set under blooming orange trees. The owner – a strong Greek woman – makes this place especially magical.

💧 Bonus: We anchor just outside in a bay with a sunken ancient city, perfect for snorkelling directly above submerged ruins (1.5–2m depth).

‍

🏺 Aegina – Temples, Pistachios & Dancing

Climb to the Temple of Aphaia, one of Greece’s architectural wonders, perched on a hill with breathtaking views.
Explore a family-run pistachio farm, where you’ll learn why there's only one male tree for every 100 females. In the evening, enjoy live bouzouki music and learn the Zorba dance – it's always a night to remember!

‍

🐟 Perdika – Moussaka, Tzatziki & True Greek Hospitality

This small fishing village is home to our close friends Kalotina and Notis, who run a taverna that feels like family.
Mamma’s moussaka is legendary, and the tzatziki with homemade yoghurt might just change your life. Truly one of the warmest welcomes in Greece.

‍

🏞 Secret Harbour – Nature’s Best-Kept Secret

A tiny hidden village nestled between mountains, with space for only 10 boats and few tavernas – no shops, no crowds, amazing suneset. Possibility for a hike to active volcano.
Locals have protected this gem for decades. It’s often called the most beautiful small harbour in Saronic, and we’re proud to share it with our guests.

‍

🌋 Methana – Hot Springs & Wine Tasting

This sleepy coastal town offers natural volcanic hot springs – perfect for easing tension, back pain or stress.
From here, we can visit a nearby boutique winery and try award-winning wines from the Peloponnese.

‍

🌅 Poros – Dorada, Hiking & Pistachio Ice Cream

After the best grilled dorada at Mike’s Taverna, enjoy a scenic walk to a hilltop chapel for one of the best views in the Saronic Gulf. Finish the day with locally made pistachio ice cream – you’ll want it again the next day.

‍

🐴 Hydra – Donkeys, Sunsets & Labyrinth Streets (weather-dependent)

No cars. No noise. Only donkeys and quiet beauty. Hydra’s sunset rivals Santorini’s, and its unique architecture – designed to confuse pirates – invites you to get pleasantly lost.
At the top, meet the monks in a hilltop monastery and enjoy one of the most peaceful moments of your trip.*

*depending on the availability in the busy port, weather condition or crew decision, we may anchor in the bay and guests go to town by water taxi for an extra charge.

‍

Agistri - Night on anchor tied to the rocks with a private swimming pool

the waters around Agistri are the most beautiful in all Saronic - blue and crystal clear. Time to use the paddle boards, kayak, snorkel ect. In the evening we go by dinghy to our favorite local fish and seafood taverna in which we ate the best tuna carpaccio in our life! they have their own fishing boat, so the fish is always fresh and catch of the day only!

‍

🌊 One Last Secret…

And then, there’s our final secret harbour – so shallow that Zorba Cat is the only boat her size able to enter.
No tourists, just a quiet beach, local fisherman and one honest, rustic taverna. This hidden paradise is shared only with those who sail with us – and we’d like to keep it that way. 😉
