Here you can connect with the lush nature and feel the presence of ancient Greeks and deities while swimming and relaxing on the hot fine sand of the long flax-golden beach between Megalochori and Skala. Adventure lovers can join our optional bike tour between Melalochori and Chalikiada Beach.
From there, we move onto the island of Moni. While here, we will serve a delicious traditional Greek lunch, accompanied by traditional wine, beers soft drinks, and coffee. Once you finished your feast, you have the chance to jump off the boat, snorkel, swim around the boat, or swim to the island. This gorgeous and unique island has no inhabitants but is populated with law-protected deer, wild goats, rabbits, and peacocks.
We will make a final journey around 3 pm towards the beautiful island of Aegina. Aegina is famous for its white stone houses, flowery backyards, pistachios, the red volcanic landscape, sensational food, the temple of Apollo, and the temple of Aphaia; in other words an earthly paradise for those who want to escape modern life. Here you will enjoy the crystal-clear water and sandy beaches of the island while exploring the breathtaking waterfront and traditional Greek cuisine. An excellent selection of jewelry, clothes, and textiles is available from the locals.
At approx. 4:45 pm we will sail back to the port of Marina Zeas while enjoying the ambiance of select and chill music, delicious Mediterranean fruits, coffee, and drinks.
