4 & 5 Day Cruises
The beauty of Argosy’s five day Argo Saronic Cruise that leaves from Alimos Marina in Athens is that the yacht has enough time to make a grand loop in the Argo Saronic sea. Four nights on the yacht combines a sense of a long weekend with the sense also of an extended cruise. The duration is half way between a 3 day quickie cruise and an 8 day sailing adventure.
Argosy’s four day Attica Sailing cruise along the Attica coastline is a really special excursion because it introduces guests to a region so close to Athens, yet so untapped. The Attica region is a rich source of history, culture and nature at sea and on land. It is a playground with so much to do and see within hours of Athens.
Agistri > Epidavros > Poros > Aegina
The Argo Saronic Cruise travels through some of the calmest waters in the Aegean Sea. It is a perfect sailing experience for beginner sailors because the seas are fairly serene. Each destination is special. In Agistri with only 200 full time residents, there are plenty of secluded coves for swimming and snorkeling. Epidavros has the awesome 3rd century BC Epidavros Theatre, a World Heritage site. Poros has lots of water sports. Aegina is famous for pistachios. Each day is a new adventure. Read more…
Lavrio > Porto Rafti > Petali Islands > Marathon
The Attica Sailing cruise exposes guests to the exciting world of the Attica Peninsula. Over the course of four days you get a glimpse of the wonders this region offers in antiquities. For lovers of antiquities shore excursions include the Temple of Poseidon at Sounion, the Temple of Artemis at Vravrona, the open air ancient Silver Mines of Lavrio and the Marathon Tomb. For history lovers, the cruise stops on the island of Makronissos where Greek dissidents were incarcerated from 1947-1955 and the yacht passes over the waters were the Brittanic sunk (Titanic’s sister ship). For nature lovers, the waters around the Attica coastline are exceedingly clear and clean for swimming, snorkeling and fishing. On land, there is biking in Sounion National Park and Marathon’s coastline. Read more…
