Greece
the eight day trip
|
 |
Day
1: Starting from Athens you can make a nice sailing voyage
to some of the Islands in the Saronic and Argolic gulfs and
to some small fishing villages along the coast of the Peloponnesus.
Day 2: The first harbour we usually call at is Epidavros,
a small, natural harbour on the Peloponnese. Here you can
visit a world famous amphitheatre, famous for its wonderful
acoustics. If you like to sing, this is your chance.
Day 3: We set sail to the small and picturesque fishing village
of Perdika. In the evening you can enjoy awonderful sunset
while having your dinner on the terrace of a local restaurant. |
Day 4: The following day we sail to the bay of Poros. There, a white
village steps up the hillside. Moored along the quay, you soon notice
that this little town has more to offer than taverns and souvenirs.
Every morning the horn sounds from the nearby navy barracks. If
you are lucky you will see the Greek naval cadets getting off the
ferry, returning from their leave.
Day 5: The island of Hydra is an artist’s colony. Old merchant houses
cover the hills overlooking the harbour and auto traffic is prohibited.
Everything is transported from the ships to the houses by mule.
Day 6: Back
on the island of Aegina, also known as the pistachio island, we
go visit the busy city of Aegina. The harbour of this busy little
town is full of activity. Ferries, fishing boats, and yachts come
and go. The lively main boulevard is crowded with taverns.
Day 7: From Aegina we sail back to Athens.
Day 8: Flight back home
