What you can expect

Set sail on a full-day cruise from Athens and discover the perfect mix of ancient history, crystal-clear swimming spots, and island charm in the Saronic Gulf. Departing from Marina Zeas in Piraeus, this 10-hour experience takes you to Epidaurus, the unique underwater ruins of the Sunken City, and a final seasonal stop in either Aegina or Aponisos.

After boarding the yacht in the morning, relax on deck as you cruise across the sparkling Aegean waters toward Epidaurus. Upon arrival, you can choose between two optional guided experiences depending on your interests:

Visit the Small Ancient Theater of Epidaurus and explore the town, followed by lunch at a traditional seaside taverna
or

Visit the Ancient Theater of Epidaurus, one of Greece’s most famous UNESCO heritage sites, with lunch served onboard

Next, enjoy one of the highlights of the day: a refreshing swim stop above the Sunken City of Epidaurus. This rare submerged ancient settlement lies just beneath the surface, and in the clear water you can see traces of walls and ruins below — an unforgettable moment for swimmers and snorkelers.

The cruise then continues to your final stop, depending on the season:

April, May & October: Visit Aegina, known for its pistachios, neoclassical waterfront, and relaxed island atmosphere. Enjoy free time to stroll, shop, or sit by the sea.

June, July & September: Stop at Aponisos, a hidden gem with turquoise waters, perfect for swimming, sunbathing, and relaxing on board.

As the day comes to an end, unwind during the scenic return journey back to Marina Zeas, arriving in the early evening with unforgettable memories from a day of sailing, swimming, and exploring Greece beyond Athens.
