What you can expect

Embark on a private 5- or 7-hour cruise along the spiritual and scenic coastline of Mount Athos, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Admire centuries-old monasteries from the sea, then enjoy swimming and island exploration in the turquoise waters near Ammouliani.

Choose between two premium itineraries based on your location. Departing from Ouranoupoli (Eagles Resort), the 5-hour option offers direct access to the monastic peninsula, cruising past landmarks like Dochiariou, Panteleimonos, and Simonos Petras. You may stop in Ouranoupoli for coffee before swimming at the exotic Drenia Islands and visiting Ammouliani for an optional seaside lunch.

For guests based in Vourvourou (Ekies Resort), the 7-hour cruise offers the same highlights with additional sailing time along Sithonia’s lush coastline — perfect for a full day on the water.
