A Saronic sailing itinerary is the perfect itinerary for intermediate sailors with medium winds (Force 2-5) and hidden coves excellent for taking an afternoon off. On a Saronic sailing itinerary, you can enjoying the Greek way of life. Our Saronic sailing itinerary offers seven days of history and delightful beaches ready for exploration.
The Saronic Gulf is formed by two of the most prominent peninsulas in the Aegean Sea. In between the areas of Attica and Argolis, the gulf offers several islands worth visiting and the steadily-blowing Meltemi winds, (especially during July and August, however, not forbiddingly strong as they can get in the Cyclades). The area is also home to a variety of wildlife, including friendly short-beaked common dolphins and fin whales. History and relaxation meld together in this land of the Greek gods.
Our Saronic sailing itinerary begins in the hustle and bustle of Athens at the Kalamaki Marina before a short sail to quieter islands. We recommend sailing during the temperate season from May to October for the best weather.
Kalamaki Marina is the start of our Saronic sailing itinerary and it is easy to access from Athens International Airport, which offers incoming and departing flights worldwide. It is easy to get from the airport to anywhere in downtown Athens by taxi. We can arrange a transfer from the airport for an additional price at around 50 EUR per ride (4 pax), as well.
