HIGHLIGHTS View
Just a few kilometers from Athens, you can set sail from the Saronic Gulf, where history, nature, and tradition intertwine in perfect harmony. Washed by calm, crystal-clear waters, this stretch of sea is dotted with charming destinations, ideal for a relaxing getaway or a journey steeped in cultural discovery. The Island of Aegina, once a major power in ancient Greece, still bears the traces of its glorious past: among its main monuments and the unmissable floating market of Manavika, visitors can enjoy a fascinating dive into history and tradition. On the hilltop of Agia Marina lies a rich archaeological site, dotted with ancient churches and architectural relics that tell the story of centuries of civilization. Not far away, the Island of Agistri, shaped like a fishhook, enchants visitors with the contrast between the deep blue of the sea and the emerald green of Mediterranean vegetation. It’s the perfect destination for those dreaming of a holiday immersed in nature and tranquility. In Hydra, let yourself be swept away by the timeless charm of the village as you stroll among whitewashed houses on the back of a donkey, the island’s traditional means of transport. Poros, on the other hand, is a little gem where time seems to slow down: perfect for a leisurely walk through its quaint alleys, the Archaeological Museum, and the evocative castle overlooking the verdant islet. Finally, Cape Sounion will surprise you with its majestic rocky promontory overlooking the Aegean Sea, a place of rare beauty where history and nature blend seamlessly, among ancient ruins and crystal-clear waters.

Questions & Answers
Do I need a boating license to charter a boat?
It depends on the type of boat and the option chosen.
For a charter with a skipper, no boating license is required. In the case of a charter without a skipper (bareboat), you must meet the requirements of the regulations of the country where you are sailing and present an adequate nautical CV.
For more information on boating licenses and current regulations, consult the dedicated page:
Is it possible to charter a boat with or without a skipper?
Yes. You can choose to charter with a professional skipper or, if you have experience and a boating license, charter without a skipper (bareboat). The BeBlue team is available to help you choose the solution best suited to your needs and the type of vacation you desire.
Can I charter a boat to join a flotilla?
Yes. It is possible to participate in a BeBlue flotilla by chartering a boat with a skipper, even without a boating license or sailing experience. The skipper takes care of managing the boat and navigation, while the crew can enjoy the flotilla experience in total relaxation, benefiting from BeBlue's organization and assistance.
