Enjoy Greece During the May Holiday

In the Tubber Flotilla Athens during the May holidays, we sail to the Saronic islands of Aegina, Poros and Hydra.

It is a perfect sailing area for short distances. There is often a constant and reliable wind and beautiful islands, with wind force between 3 and 5 Beaufort.

The flotilla in Athens starts on Saturday from Alimos, the largest marina in Athens. You can rent a bareboat sailing yacht and sail yourself in the flotilla with a Dutch or Greek skipper.

There are also more flotillas in the spring and also in the fall! Want even more sun? Then check out the flotilla offer for the summer from Athens.

Athens and the Saronic Gulf

The beauty of the Saronic Gulf is that it has everything.

From quiet coves and private beaches to bustling seaside resorts and bays with a lot of boating traffic where there is much to do.

During a flotilla holiday in Greece, most sailors start on the west coast due to the moderate sailing climate, but you really don't have to be afraid of the Saronic Gulf. Yes, the wind is a bit stronger there than on the west coast, but that's just perfect.

Fly easily to Athens and discover the flotilla holidays in Athens inexpensively and in peace during the May holiday.

Experienced Flotilla Guidance

At Tubber, you get the best service! Our guides are passionate and experienced sailors.

Quality Yachts

Young and very well-maintained yachts. All yachts in the Tubber flotilla are from one owner, so we can offer the best service with our service.

All in Tubber Package

All yachts in the Tubber flotilla have an all-inclusive package. Outboard motor, towels, linen, final cleaning and a welcome pack - it's all included!

Of course, a super successful sailing holiday depends on the weather, the sun, the sea and a professional flotilla guide. In addition to conviviality, safety is of course very important during your sailing holiday.

In Athens, flotilla leader Ben will support you every day during your flotilla sailing holiday. Ben has always been a guest at Tubber himself and will guide you in Athens during the May holidays and the summer holidays. In addition to being an excellent flotilla leader in real life, Ben is an entrepreneur.

He is very much looking forward to guiding everyone safely, pleasantly with a lot of passion during the sunny sailing holiday in Greece.

Day 1

Check in Alimos / Athens

On Saturday, you can check in at Alimos after your flight; we don't leave until Sunday. Take plenty of time for the check-in and take an Uber to the centre of Athens or Piraeus. A meeting and reception will be in Tubber's temporary office on the harbour. At 5 pm, you can board your sailing yacht or catamaran.

Day 2

Athens - Epidaurus

After the skipper's briefing with a nice cup of coffee, we set sail. During the day you can anchor in one of the beautiful bays for a lovely swim (sometimes a bit fresh) or snorkelling. In Epidaurus, you can visit the beautiful amphitheatre. It is known as the best-preserved theatre from Greek antiquity.

Day 3

Epidaurus - Vathy

In the morning you will have time to explore the village of Epidaurus and buy fresh bread rolls. Around noon we sail to Vathy on the Methana peninsula. Vathy is a picturesque village with many small restaurants. It is located on the open sea, so the water here is very clean.

Day 4

Vathy - Poros

Poros is cosy and picturesque; the residents here rely on the tourists, but somehow they manage to keep it authentic. The small streets are still being swept clean with a dustpan. Here you can rent a scooter or a bicycle to enjoy the view higher up the mountain. Or take a walk between the old houses under overhanging flowers. Of course, there is plenty of time for real Greek cuisine and a drink on the terrace or your aft deck.

Day 5

Poros - Perdika

Perdika is a village on the beautiful Greek island of Aegina. On the way to Perdika, you have the best chance of spotting Dolphins. There is plenty of time to anchor somewhere for a spring swim or a delicious lunch.

Day 6

Perdika - Korfos

This small harbour town is located on a beautiful bay. You can enjoy the view and the sunset from the terrace or your cockpit.

Day 7

Korfos - Athens

Today we sail back to Athens. In between you have time to drop anchor. In the evening there is the option to go out for dinner with the whole group. This way you can still enjoy the last joint Greek evening.

Day 8

Checking out

Today is the last day of your flotilla holidays in Athens. If you fly at the end of the day, you can still visit the Acropolis, the streets of Plaka or the Monastiraki district to stroll through.

How many participants are there in the Athens May holiday flotilla?

A maximum of 8 yachts/families participate in the Tubber flotilla in Greece.

Can we go swimming during the May holiday?

You can swim during the May holiday in Greece. The water is sometimes a bit chilly during the May holidays - the water temperature is between 16 and 21 degrees. For us, this is often warm enough for a refreshing dip.

Do I need a VHF Basic Certificate for this flotilla?

No, you do not need a VHF Basic Certificate for this flotilla.

Do I sail independently in a flotilla or always along with the group?

In the Tubber flotilla of Greece, you sail under the pleasure and ease of an experienced mothership. You are not expected to sail in a group. Feel free to take a dip in a self-discovered bay, for example.
