A memorable experience after a busy season. We head out to sea for a week to log miles and create moments that break the routine.
Shifting winds, quick decisions, night watches, and a close-knit crew — we adapt as we go. If the weather is favorable, Crete awaits us on the horizon.

Proposed route

We depart from Athens on Saturday evening, heading toward Crete. After a morning coffee stop in Hydra, we set off for a true offshore crossing—125 nautical miles to Crete. Once we visit Chania and get some rest, we continue toward the Cyclades Islands, with sailing and short stops in Milos, Santorini, and Mykonos.
