Sailing cruise towards the Sporades Islands, Greece

Check-in available from 5 p.m. at the embarkation Marina. After the technical check-in and a short presentation of the boat, you can take your seat in the cabins and board the galley before setting sail.

After a good breakfast, we will cast off and head south. With a calm sailing journey, we will reach the beautiful beach of Sklithri, where you can relax in its calm waters and walk along the shore, enjoying the sunset.

From Skiathos we proceed to the east towards the refined Skopelos, the most luxuriant island in the Sporades archipelago. It will welcome you with its intact nature and its coasts covered by thick coniferous forests, where you will find enchanted bays with white little pebble beaches and a crystal clear sea. At sunset, you can have a nice walk on the white sand beach in the suggestive Limnonari bay and have dinner on board.

We leave for a peaceful sailing along the west coast of Skopelos. Time for diving and enjoying the sun in the beautiful Panormos bay. Here you can go ashore to visit the little village, go shopping for the trip and eat in one of the nice taverns on the seaside. We will spend the night in the near and peaceful bay of Kastani Beach.

Through a short navigation from Skopelos, you will reach Alonissos, the best destination for those who seek relax and authentic contact with nature. The island is located at the centre of a marine park, and its waters are among the purests in the whole Aegean Sea. The old town of Alonissos will offer you an evocative landscape with its pure white houses, ancient stairways and wonderful Byzantine churches.

After breakfast we set sail from Alonissos to go back west towards the island of Skopelos. We dedicate the day to a small tour around Skopelos Old Town, with a visit to the interesting folkloristic museum and the ancient streets of the town where we can get lost until dinnertime. We should then look for a good tavern where to taste the excellent local wine and listen to some live music.

From Skopelos we head north and follow the eastern coast of the island. Stopover for a swim and a snack in the splendid and secluded bay of Perivolou, reachable only on foot or by boat. Short afternoon sailing until we arrive on Skiathos and return to the Marina at 18:00 with overnight stay in the port included.

Disembarkation is scheduled at 09:00 on Saturday. 

Check-in available from 17:00 to the central port of Volos. After the technical check-in and a brief presentation of the boat you can also take some time to enjoy a drink or a walk along the coast. Just 10 minutes by bus or a little more than 30 minutes walk, you will reach the beach of Anavros, great for a swim or to enjoy a great meal. If you want to enjoy a splendid panoramic view, we recommend you head to the village of Makrinitsa Monte Pelion, at an altitude of 550 m and just 30 minutes from the city, where you can also discover the impressive traditional architecture of the area. Overnight in Marina ready to sail the next day. 

Departure from Volos after breakfast for a placid sailing from the Pagasitikos Gulf will lead you to the open sea. Heading east towards Skiathos, which you should reach in about 6 hours. The many beaches in the south of the island, such as Koukounaries, are known for their golden sands and fantastic beach parties. While sailing to the port of Skiathos, where the boat will moor, you can enjoy the many beautiful beaches and make short stops for a swim, Once you arrive at the port you will find a large commercial market and many restaurants and bars where you can have fun all night. Another suggestion is to visit the small and nearby island of Tsougria for a swim or a day trip.

If you still have energy after a fun night, head to the island of Skopelos. Sail to the port of Loutraki, which you should reach in about 2 hours. Nearby there is a beach where you can swim or have a drink in the local bar, or you can take the bus for a 35 minute ride to the traditional town of Skopelos, where you will also find the city’s central port.

Set sail for the island of Alonissos, which you should reach in 3 hours. Here you should visit the Alonnisos Museum, a civic museum that makes us fantasize between ancient nautical charts, and a well-documented collection of pirate weapons. A 10-minute local bus ride takes you to the old town on top of the hill where you will come across traditional houses, impressive views, a piano bar under the stars and great food. Alternatively, you can stay in the Bay of Steni Valla, a narrow bay with a choice of small cafes and restaurants.

Departure for the island of Peristera, 1 hour and a half away, uninhabited island part of the National Marine Park of Alonissos, ideal landing point for those who want to relax in the sun avoiding the crowding of the small beaches of Alonissos. On this small island you will also find the remains of a castle, ideal to enliven a bit the day of extreme relaxation that you will spend by choosing to dive from this coast in the crystal clear waters of the Aegean. Then head to the northern end of the island of Evia, the small "Pontikoniso", which you should reach in 3.5 hours, safe to anchor in the southern bay of the island, but there are no facilities or inhabitants.

Set sail to the small fishing village of the island of Trikeri, safe harbor with traditional taverns and if the noise and lights of this small village annoy you, you can spend a quiet night in the nearby bay, called "Pithos". From there, it is 15 minutes walk from the village. We also recommend you visit the island monastery, a 15-minute walk from the port and the beach of Tzastenis which can be reached along a short path through an olive grove.

Reach today the port of Amaliapolis, about 1 hour and 30 minutes away from Trikeri on the southwest side of the Gulf on the road to Volos. It is a quiet fishing village and tourist resort, with a sandy beach, taverns and a mini-market. Here you can enjoy your last day on the beach swimming and having fun and get together for a drink in one of the beach bars. Return to Volos at 18.00.

The landing is scheduled at 09:00 on Saturday.
