Discover the Saronic Gulf in Greece

During this Tubber flotilla from Athens, we will sail to the Saronic islands of Aegina, Poros, and Hydra. It is a perfect sailing area for short distances as there is often a constant and reliable wind and beautiful islands. This sunny flotilla in the Saronic Gulf always starts on Saturday from Alimos, the largest marina in Athens. You can rent a sailing bareboat and sail yourself in the flotilla with a Dutch or Greek skipper. The wind is relatively constant during this period, with wind force between 3 and 5 Beaufort. As a result, the Saronic Gulf is perfect for family sailing. Stop dreaming and start your adventure and book your flotilla sailing trip to Greece now!

The flottila guidance

Of course, a successful sailing holiday depends on the weather, the sun, the sea and the flotilla guidance. In addition to fun, safety is of course very important during the sailing holiday. During the flotilla, professional guidance is available on the mothership who are always ready for mooring and anchoring. These flotilla leaders may also be local skippers, but will always have good English language skills. In addition, they plot the route (with input from the participants) and monitor the weather for everyone. Of course they also enjoy it a lot themselves and are always looking forward to giving you a great experience in Croatia too.

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

Day 4

Vathy - Poros
Poros is cosy and picturesque; the residents here have to get it from the tourists, but somehow they manage to keep it authentic. The small streets are still cleaned with a broomstick. Here you can rent a scooter or a bicycle to enjoy the view higher up the mountain. Or take a walk among the old houses under overhanging flowers. Of course, there is plenty of time for the real Greek cuisine and a drink on the terrace or your back deck.

Day 5

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