Greece! The Saronic Gulf
May 10-17, 2025

The Saronic Gulf is located between Athens and the coast of the Argolid Peninsula. This area is highly recommended for it’s proximity to Athens, making it an ideal spot for travelers arriving via the Athens International Airport. Within a few hours of landing, you can be swimming and relaxing on board, having reached your first destination. Another advantage is that the area is well protected from the annual Meltemi winds, which can blow strongly in July and August and can create challenging conditions.

​

This trip has become a favorite sailing destination for Joyride Charters. We've done it numerous times!. Sailing from Alimos Marina (Athens) is a perfect way to discover the Saronic islands. We visit the lovely islands of Aegina, Dokos,  Poros, Spetses, and Hydra, including Ermioni and Epidaurus on the Peloponnese.

Explore each stop with an e-bike or 4-wheeler (extra charge) or your two feet!

Each day we make time for swim stops, sailing, and getting quayside early enough for you to explore the quaint seaside towns, shop, and we’ll dine as a group in some of the best restaurants in the world! Sit along a seaside cliff restaurant and watch a beautiful sunset.

Includes all breakfasts and lunches.  Fresh bread and greek baked goods delivered each day!  Enjoy dining together at local authentic tavernas.

Our large catamaran has plenty of space and all the modern conveniences.  All cabins are private doubles with private heads.
