Detailed itinerary

1

Welcome aboard to the first stop of the all-day cruise to Agistri!

As you approach the island, you will be immediately struck by the stunning turquoise waters that surround it. The crystal-clear sea is perfect for swimming and snorkeling, so make sure to bring your swimsuit and gear. With plenty of beaches to choose from in a walking distance, you are sure to find one that suits your needs.

If you are feeling adventurous, renting a bike to explore the island is a great option. Agkistri is a small island, so it’s easy to get around and see everything just in very little time.

While you're here, don't forget to browse the local souvenir shops for unique trinkets and mementos to take home with you.

As the hour and a half comes to a close, we'll head back to the boat and continue on to our next destination. But don't worry, there's still plenty more to see and do on this amazing all-day cruise. So sit back, relax, and enjoy the journey!

Prepare for a unique journey at Moni Island, with its captivating landscape. While we don’t disembark here, there’s plenty of adventure awaiting! Dive into the pristine waters by the boat, challenge yourself with a leap off the ship, and explore the underwater wonders as you snorkel amidst a vivid marine ecosystem. If, by chance, Moni isn't accessible due to weather or other factors, "Metopi" is our alternative—a picturesque islet with turquoise waters, sandy beaches, and the its solitary vineyards. After your aquatic adventures, our hospitable boat crew will introduce to our Mediterranean buffet. As you dine, let the panoramic views of the sea and its surrounding beauty captivate your senses. From the gentle sway of the boat to the horizon kissed by the sun, this is an immersive experience into the heart of the Mediterranean's enchantment. This day promises to be a highlight of your travels, a story to tell, and an experience to treasure.

Our final destination on this all-day cruise is Aegina, also known as the pistachio island. With a long history of pistachio cultivation, you can explore the local market and try traditional delicacies made with this delicious nut.

The Archaeological Museum of Aegina is definitely worth a visit for those interested in ancient history. The Apollon Temple is also a must-see attraction on the island, with the stunning Doric columns and beautiful architecture.

In addition to the historical attractions, Aegina is famous for its delicious local products. You can visit local stands to try out these tasty treats and even bring some back home as souvenirs.

Take a stroll through the charming town before enjoying a refreshing swim on the beach and the crystal-clear waters. As the day draws to a close, you'll board the ship once again and enjoy a leisurely sail back to Athens, savoring the memories of your unforgettable day in the Saronic Islands.
