Cruise to Agistri, Moni, & Aegina
The adventure begins at the Zea Marina in Athens, where you'll board the vessel at the designated time.
Your first destination is Agistri, an idyllic island embraced by emerald waters and adorned with fragrant pine trees. This tranquil spot is perfect for escaping the chaotic pace of Athens. Historically, it was a favored retreat for the Ancient Greeks, who would sail here to relax on the sandy shores and enjoy the sun.
After your time on Agistri, return to the boat and relish the expansive sea views while heading towards Moni or Metopi. During this leg of the journey, savor a delightful Greek meal paired with a refreshing glass of wine. Once you arrive, dive into the inviting Mediterranean Sea for a swim close to the island. Moni serves as a protected nature reserve, teeming with deer, rabbits, peacocks, and diverse wildlife.
The excursion culminates at Aegina Island, renowned for its picturesque white-washed houses adorned with colorful blooms, alongside the historic temples of Apollo and Aphaia. Take time to explore the island before unwinding with a swim in the crystal-clear waters, setting the stage for your return to Athens.
Roughly 10 hours later, your boat will return you to Zea Marina.
