Suggested itinerary
Your private boat trip to Hydra and Poros from Athens begins as the Axopar clears the marina and enters the Saronic Gulf. Within minutes, breathtaking views of the Greek coastline unfold on either side as Athens disappears behind you.
Relax on deck, feel the sea breeze, and take in the beauty of the Athenian Riviera. Your skipper knows exactly where to drop anchor for the first swim stop — a quiet bay most visitors never find, with water clear enough to see your shadow on the sand below.
The first stop on your private cruise from Athens is Poros — a charming island known for its neoclassical waterfront, pine-covered hills, and genuinely relaxed atmosphere.
The ferry crowds go to Hydra. You arrive by private boat to quieter waters, swim in crystal-clear bays with deep turquoise waters, snorkel off the stern or walk streets where nothing is trying to sell you a souvenir.
When you're ready, your skipper finds the best anchorage on the island, and you stay for as long as you like — one of the real luxuries of a private yacht charter.
Next, your private boat tour continues to Hydra, one of the most elegant and iconic islands near Athens.
No cars. No scooters. No noise — just cobblestones, donkeys, and stone mansions that have looked the same for two hundred years.
Arriving in Hydra by private yacht makes the experience even more special. Swim and snorkel in secluded crystal-clear waters, explore boutique shops and art galleries hidden in narrow alleys, and sit down for a long lunch at a waterfront taverna with fresh fish and cold white wine.
Allow at least two hours for Hydra. People who rush it always regret it.
As the day draws to a close, settle on deck and watch the golden light fade over the Aegean as your private cruise to Hydra and Poros heads back to Athens.
This private day cruise from Athens is more than a boat trip — it is a full day of swimming, island discovery, and genuine Greek hospitality, the kind of experience that stays with you long after the holiday ends.
