Step-by-step itinerary

Half-day sailing cruise in Nafplio

  • Board sailing yacht in Nafplio harbor
  • Pass by Bourtzi Castle
  • Sail to Romvi island
  • Swim in clear waters at Romvi
  • Enjoy Greek treats and drinks onboard
  • Learn about local history and culture
  • Return to Nafplio harbor

The experience

Four and a half hours on the water means you leave Nafplio in the morning or early afternoon and return with time to explore the town on foot. The yacht carries a small group, no crowds, so there's room to move and the crew can give real attention to what you want. You'll pass Bourtzi Castle, the Venetian fortress that sits in the harbor, and head toward Romvi, the larger of Tolo's two islands, where the water is clear and the pine-covered slopes rise straight from the shore.

Swimming happens at secluded spots where the water stays calm. Snorkeling equipment is provided, and you go in when you want to. The crew doesn't push a schedule. Between swims, you're back on deck with Greek snacks and drinks (local treats, not a generic cooler), and the crew shares what they know about the coast and the history of the region. Infants sit on a parent's lap. There's no age gate beyond that.

What’s included

  • Snorkeling equipment.
  • Greek snacks and local treats.
  • bottled water, soft drinks and alcoholic beverages served onboard.
  • crew guidance on local history and culture.
