Day 2
Athens/Northern Cyclades
While in the Cyclades, stroll through the markets of Syros, finding countless treasures and must-grab deals along the way. Visit the stone lion on Kea and make sure to stop in at a family-owned silver shop before watching the sunset. Kythnos offers a special treat of seeing the sunrise while soaking in local hot springs.
Another favourite among travellers is a stopover in Hydra. Take a local “taxi” (donkey ride) to see the sights of this charming island where there are no cars allowed. It’s not hard to see why Hydra has inspired painters and writers the world over.

Customer reviews & ratings
Very pleasant and well designed trip led by experienced skipper who made us felt like home in a relaxed yet active schedule. I had a great time on and off board. From personal experience throughout the sailing tour from Athen to Santorini
Tse Chieh (Jeff) Oct, 2024 VerifiedAmazing experience! Sailing together through the Cyclades starting in Athens as strangers and arriving in Santorini as friends. Our skipper showed us the best places to visit but also it turned out to be a fantastic foody tour! Highly recommended and would immediately join the crew again. Amazing trip, fantastic places for snorkeling, swimming, eating. Great skipper.
