Saronic Golf & Peloponnese
At the south west of Athens, Aegina, Angistri, Poros, Methana, Epidaurus, Hydra and Spetses are waiting to win you over and take you through the most relaxing sceneries in Greece.
Depending on how south you desire to go, Eastern Peloponnese (Ermioni, Nafplio, Monemvasia, Elafonissos) combines breathtaking sceneries and some of the best beaches in Greece. Sailing in the Saronic Golf is always a pleasure, as the area is known for ideal sailing conditions. Furthermore, the Saronic islands are close to the mainland and to each other and therefore you can benefit from sailing short distances.
