Catamaran Voyage Greece
The Saronic Gulf on Athens’ doorstep is one of Greece’s most sheltered and varied sailing grounds: short distances, a reliable afternoon breeze and a chain of islands that each have a character of their own. The route from Alimos runs via Aegina, with its Doric Temple of Aphaia, to Hydra, whose car-free harbour town is among the loveliest in Greece, on to the pine-clad islands around Spetses and Agistri and into the bays of the Argolid at Ermioni and Palaia Epidavros.
Highlights
- Temple of Aphaia on Aegina - one of the best-preserved temples in Greece and a model for the Acropolis, set above pine woods
- Hydra - a car-free island with donkeys and water taxis, and 19th-century captains’ houses above the harbour
- Poros - a narrow strait from the mainland, a clock tower above the old town and the lemon forest of Lemonodassos behind it
- Palaia Epidavros - a sunken ancient city in the bay, with the great theatre of Epidaurus within reach

Region: Greece - Saronic Gulf
What makes this region special
The Argo-Saronic Gulf is the cruising ground right on Athens' doorstep: sheltered waters between the mainland and the islands, short hops, and almost always the next island already on the horizon. Because the distances are so small, there is time for long lunch stops in quiet bays and for the harbour towns in the evening.
Aegina is famous for its pistachios and the Temple of Aphaia, one of the best-preserved in Greece. Hydra bans cars entirely; in the 19th century the island was one of the wealthiest maritime trading towns in the Aegean, as its captains' houses above the harbour still show. Spetses has an elegant old town and the story of the freedom fighter Bouboulina. Poros lies just a narrow channel from the mainland, with the lemon forest of Lemonodassos behind it. On the mainland, Ermioni and Palaia Epidavros await, the ancient theatre of Epidaurus close by.
The area is ideal for anyone seeking plenty of variety over few nautical miles in a week: ancient sites, car-free islands, pine-fringed bays and lively harbour towns, all within day stages.
