Athens One Day Cruise to 3 Islands
Let Us Delight You with the Beauty of the Greek Islands!

On this Athens One Day Cruise to 3 Islands Aegina – Poros – Hydra upon arrival at the cruise ship you will receive a warm welcome from our Officers and Hostesses, who will assist you with boarding one of our Cruise Ships. They will invite you to proceed either to the Main Lounge, where our live orchestra has already started putting you in the right mood with its international music repertoire or to one of the spacious open decks where you can enjoy the fascinating view as the ship leaves the port.

The Showman will entertain you throughout the day with his imaginative surprises!

Shortly after departure our Multi-lingual Guides and Hostesses will invite you to assemble in one of the Lounges. At the same time, they will give you all the necessary information concerning the cruise program. As well as the tips about the islands. This will also be an opportunity for you to get answers to any questions you might have, as our trained staff is there to ensure that you will have the most wonderful day.

Arrived at the beautiful Hydra Island, which has inspired many artists such as Picasso and Chagall. In addition, it is the home of many artists like P.Tetsis, N.Gkikas, and L.Cohen. Many movies have been filmed on the island like Sophia Loren’s hit movie “Boy on a Dolphin” and Melina Merkouri’s “Phaedra”.

As soon as you disembark, it’s all there. The small narrow stone-paved streets waiting to be explored on foot or by the island’s traditional “vehicle” – the saddled donkey. Also, captivating walks along the old seaside promenade with both amazing crystal clear water and radiant traditional fine-craft shops. The beauty of Hydra Island will conquer you forever!

Take your time to enjoy the unique charms of Hydra Island and while returning back on board you will receive a homecoming welcome.
On the way to Poros island, the Buffet will be set, giving you an opportunity to taste the gastronomic creations of our Chef.

Arrived on the island of Poros Island, the smallest of the three islands. Separated from the Peloponnese by a narrow strait and offering a most enchanting view of Poros Town. Poros Island is the yacht’s favorite destination. You’ll have time at leisure in Poros to stroll around the small picturesque streets of the island’s town.

Our next destination is Aegina Island – the former first capital of Greece after its Independence was declared. The Island is also famous for its pistachio produce.

Aegina Island is the largest of the three islands. Apart from its harbor, there are numerous interesting sites to discover on the island and therefore we propose
2 optional tours….

1. On this optional Guided Bus Tour of the island, we start with a visit to the Temple of Afea which is the best-preserved temple in Greece. It is also one of the 3 temples forming the famous “Sacred Triangle” of Greek antiquity.

Built on top of a wooded hill. It offers the most magnificent view over the island, the Saronic Gulf, Piraeus, and Salamina Island.
Our guide will tell you the fascinating story of the intriguing history of this beautiful site. Continuing for a short visit to the Church of Saint Nektarios. Enjoy quiet moments of contemplation and admiration of its beautiful Byzantine architecture.

The drive back to Aegina Port will give you time to relax and appreciate the exquisite peaceful nature of the island

2. On this optional Panoramic Bus Tour, you have the opportunity to drive across the entire island (without visiting the archaeological site). Furthermore, you will admire the beauty of its nature. Also, as the island’s medieval capital of Paleohora, the Church of Saint Nektarios, the pistachio groves.
The tour ends with a stop by the seaside. There you can relax and enjoy a glass of Ouzo along with a choice of irresistible Greek “Mezedes” (appetizers)!

The tickets for the above recommended optional excursions can be purchased on board.

Your other choice is to stay in Aegina and enjoy a walk or horse-carriage ride around the town or relax in one of the harbor’s charming waterfront coffee shops.

And if you think that the day ends here….. you are mistaken!
The highlight of your One Day Cruise still awaits!
A “Traditional Greek Folk Show” with singers and dancers in original costumes from all of Greece. Together with our Officers, Hostesses, and the ever amusing Jeannot will entertain and animate you up to the final moment.

Finally, we will wish you a warm farewell and while looking forward to seeing you again on one of our cruises!

Much of the northern and far eastern/western sides of the island are bushy, whereas large areas of old pine forest are found in thesouth and center of the island. It is very close to Athens Greece, and is a popular summer resort to both Greeks and foreigners. Many Athenians have summerhouses here, which can be noticed in the weekends, since the island livens up a lot then.

Amazing Day

We did this trip in November 2019 and opted for the VIP experience. Well worth it, no waiting, first off the boat and waited on like royalty.
Every island we stopped at was amazing. The weather was great considering it was late in the year. We thoroughly enjoyed our day, it was long but worth every minute.
We would recommend that if you get the opportunity then do this trip, you will create some wonderful memories and take home some awesome photos. We rate this a 5 star plus experience.
