• Departure point

Our departure point is Marina Alimou in Athens (also known as Marina Kalamaki). It is located 10 Km from the city center (Syntagma Square), 8 Km East of the port of Piraeus and 30 km from El. Venizelos International Airport. It is served by a dense transportation network of tram, buses and taxis, with stations only 500 meters from the marina.

Upon request and only for week cruises it is possible to start and/or end your cruise at the port of Lavrio, the main entrance to the Cyclades. For more information please contact us.

 As of 2024 we have changed the departure point exclusively of our day sailing trips and start at the port of Aegina. It is fast and inexpensive to reach from the port of Piraeus and it is a perfect getaway option for the visitor with limited time, who wants to visit some of the nicest coves and islands of the Saronic Gulf.
