Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Pass By: Mount Athos The Holy Mountain, Mount Athos Greece

Our day cruise excursion takes you further south, to Mount Athos Peninsula known as Agion Oros, which means Holy Mountain in Greek. This sacred area of extraordinary beauty is home to 20 Eastern Orthodox monasteries and their monks. However, a rule called “avaton” permits access only to adult men and young males accompanied by their fathers, so please note that we are not allowed to approach it within less than 500 m.

Stop At: Ammouliani Island - Αμμουλιανή, Δήμος Αριστοτέλη Αμμουλιανή Χαλκιδικής, Ammouliani 630 75, Greece

As soon as the cultural tour around Mount Athos comes to an end, this is exactly where the summer fun begins! Relax on the deck, treat yourself with cool refreshments and tasty snacks and have the opportunity to make some new friends, as seagulls and dolphins will likely escort you until you reach Ammouliani. Take advantage of your two-hour break to dive into the mesmerizing blue waters and taste a delicious seafood lunch in a traditional tavern that will blow up your taste buds!

Duration: 2 hours

Stop At: Drenia Island, Ammouliani Greece

Since no one can get enough of sea and sun during summer, the boat trip goes on with a lovely, relaxing stop at Drenia, also known as Donkey islands. These little islets offer the best spot to go swimming, snorkeling, and experience what fun in the sea is all about! Unwind and recharge on the white sand beach and in the crystal clear turquoise waters before sailing back to your starting point.

Duration: 1 hour
