Athens Sunset Catamaran Cruise with Meal & Drinks Included
Half an hour from the city, the coastline most Athenians miss
A 4 to 5 hour sailing catamaran cruise departing from Alimos Marina explores the Athenian coast with stops off Vouliagmeni and Voula, where the water is clearest and shelter from summer winds keeps the anchorages calm. Lunch with seafood pasta, salads and appetizers; wine and beer; snorkeling equipment; and an English-speaking guide are all included. Transfers to and from the port are optional at checkout.
4h–5h
Step-by-step itinerary
Sunset catamaran cruise along coast
- Depart from Alimos Marina
- Stop off Vouliagmeni coast
- Anchor near Hydrousa island
The Experience
The boat leaves Alimos Marina every afternoon and heads out to the coastline that sits just half an hour from the city center but stays largely unknown to tourists. Your captain stops off Vouliagmeni first, where some of the clearest water along the Athenian coast surfaces. The second anchor drops off Voula, in a spot sheltered by the island of Hydrousa — this is where the summer sea breeze dies and the water turns its most vivid color.
Lunch arrives onboard: seafood pasta, salads and appetizers, with wine and beer available throughout the sail. Snorkeling gear is ready if you want to get in the water; bottled water keeps you hydrated between swims. The whole afternoon unfolds at the pace of the boat, with no schedule pressing you back to shore before the light starts to change.
An English-speaking guide is with you for the full 4 to 5 hours. The catamaran stays small enough that the group never feels crowded, and the boat itself does the work — you show up at the marina and the sailing, the stops, the meal and the timing all happen without you arranging a thing.
