All set for the big holiday?
Have you chosen your yacht rentals in Greece for the vacation? As in, crewed motor yacht or skippered catamaran?
Well, now is the time to plan out the itinerary.
Get ready to unravel the treasured places of surreal Greece!
- Athens
When in Greece, you gotta sail in Athens! Yes!
Athens – the largest city and Greece’s capital – houses the most exotic and colossal Greek history. Acropolis is a must-visit here as it has the iconic Parthenon along with the demure-robed maidens, which we know as Caryatids that supports Erechtheion temple’s roof.
Ancient Agora down the Acropolis is the predicament where Socrates explicated his philosophy. The other eminent sites of Athens are Olympian Zeus’ temple, the Panathenaic Stadium, and Hadrian’s Arch alongside Roman Agora’s reminiscent Tower of the Winds.
Additionally, the café culture in Greece has widely developed from Athens. You can see Greeks at every corner of its streets indulging in that lazy and lingering chat-filled kafedaki. Order coffees the Greek way – sketo (plain ones), metrio (with little sugar), or glyko (super sweet) – and take a sip leisurely sitting in that picturesque café as you watch the by-passers and teenagers chitchat!
- Cape Sounion
As you leave those shores of Athens, the yacht rentals in Greece will usually head towards Cape Sounion. There, you’ll find the Poseidon Temple that can be reached easily by foot from ashore. The pleasant time to visit this 444BC temple perched on a cliff edge is during the early mornings or as the sun sets forming an exquisite backdrop. Your vessel can drop anchor on the northern side of this bay as it offers good holding due to the presence of weed and sand patches.
Cape of Columns is situated 5 miles south to ancient Thoricus’ town and 43 miles from south-eastern parts of Athens facing the southernmost tip of the Attic peninsula. The view of this temple is magnificent; your cruising trip will remain unfinished if you don’t visit this solitude shrine along your way!
Kea
In proximity to Attica, Kea is that small island that lies opposite to Lavrion port. Kea is embedded in traditional vibes and is a favorite holiday destination for all Athenians. Kea is also for people who hire luxury yachts in Greece and want to stay close to Athens.

Quiet beaches with breath-taking scenic views of Otzias and Koundouros support numerous water sports. Both of them receive plentiful yachts because of the refurbished stone mills and picturesque beaches.
Santorini
Luxury yachts in Greece cruise to the west of Sifnos, surpassing an astonishing island of Ios which is more or less a barren island that comes to life during high seasons.
As you get near the ravishing Santorini, you’ll realize it is exactly what you have seen in those postcards. With multi-hued volcanic seashores like red, black, and white, and impressive sunsets, this is nirvana for travel enthusiasts worldwide.
Cruise along with the majestic Cyclades and other islands with yacht rentals in Greece. There will be moments to cherish and revere for a lifetime!
