Hydra,Saronic Islands,Greece Motor Yacht Charter

Step on board your luxury motor yacht in Athens and meet the fantastic crew that will be with you throughout your week. Set sail down to the Lilliputian Greek island of Hydra, known as the Saronic showpiece which seduced the jet set and inspired artists like Picasso.

This untoched, car-free island really does have a unique charm to it; wander marble-cobbled lanes, climb to the oldest district of Kiafa and continue up to the 7 windmills at the highest point of Agios Athanasios for breathtaking views. Soak up the atmosphere and grab a bite to eat in one of the traditional Greek tavernas – our reccommendation is Omilos; considered the most famous Bar-Resturant in Greece having hosted the likes of The Beatles, Rolling Stones and Jackie Kennedy. Kodylenia is also a lovely place to sit and have lunch with a sea view.

Later, cruise around to Molos Bay, which is a stunning wide open bay that is the perfect place to try your hand at water-skiing or paddle boarding. Enjoy dinner onboard this evening, watching the sun go down over the island and tasting some delicious dishes made for you by your onboard chef. Stay overnight here at anchor.
