Athens is one of the oldest cities in the world with a recorded history that spans over 3,000 years. Regarded by many as the birthplace of civilisation, the city is brimming with culture and a treasure trove of archaeological monuments.
Today, the city is the metropolitan capital of Greece and is considered one of the most happening and lively destinations in Southern Europe. Athens also boasts an energetic and diverse gay scene that has grown in recent years. The scene has made its way from the underground and into the mainstream and as such, gay travelers can find a number of gay-focused venues throughout the city.
Athens is a huge city, but most of the major sights and popular shopping areas are in or near the central areas of Plaka, Monastiraki and Psiri. Most of the sights in these central areas are within walking distance of each other, although this depends on your tolerance to heat.
The gay scene in Athens has developed rapidly over the past few years. Most of the scene is located in the Gazi district, which has become known as the 'gay village' (located near Kerameikos metro station). Nightlife starts late in Athens. With a couple of exceptions, most gay bars don't open until 10 pm and things start to get busy around midnight.
Sodade2 has been Athens most famous gay dance club for over 15 years and boasts two dancefloors playing mainstream hits and greek anthems. The club gets especially busy on the weekends. BIG was the first bear bar in Athens and still offers guests a friendly snd welcoming atmosphere. The bar is a popular warm-up venue for travelers seeking bigger clubs later on.
For the ancient Greeks, the saunas of Athens were a space to connect, unwind and relax and the gay men of modern Athens are just as passionate about sauna culture.

Day 1 - As this is the designated arrival day, you have time to explore the Greek capital before you set sail. Athens is one of the world’s oldest cities, where you can explore over 3,400 years of history.
In the afternoon, please make your way to our marina in Salamina marina, where you can meet your fellow sailors and mingle.
Relax on board, sip your drink from your private deck, and dance till dawn!
Day 2 -
We continue our Greek sailing adventure and journey towards to the little traditional village of Ancient Epidaurus, famed for its wild lemon trees & oranges, sandy beaches with blue-green waters, lush greenery and fresh fish.
Sunken City and Nisi beach are two of the Epidaurus’s best-loved beaches, from which you can explore the Aegean Sea with adrenalin via the massive array of watersports on offer.
There’s time to wander picturesque ancient Epidaurus Town, visit the historical ancient amphitheater, and sample some of the best Greek food – and cocktails – on the island.
Day 3 - We continue our Greek sailing adventure and journey towards to the little Greek island of Poros, famed for its wild lemon trees, sandy beaches with blue-green waters, lush greenery and Poseidon’s Temple ruins.
Love Bay and Askeli are two of the island’s best-loved beaches, from which you can explore the Aegean Sea with adrenalin via the massive array of watersports on offer.
There’s time to wander picturesque Poros Town, visit the historical Monastery of Zoodochos Pighi and sample some of the best Greek food – and cocktails – on the island.
Day 4 - Hydra is the island of Greek naval traditions and played a significant role in the 1821 War of Independence, with preserved captain’s mansions on the seafront by the quaint Old Harbour, and a thriving town that remains the heart of commercial life on the island.
Horse-drawn carriages can take you on a romantic journey around the old town streets, and the iconic Cathedral is a must-visit for history lovers.
There are a handful of beaches you can visit, many with water sports facilities, although Vlichos remains a favorite for sun-worshippers as it is considered the most beautiful with its backdrop of pine trees.
We stay overnight in Hydra, allowing time to wander the atmospheric old town at dusk, where you’ll find lively bars and clubs. You can even join a late-night party on the beach.
Day 5 -
On the fifth day of our ocean cruising, we sail towards a revered gem of the Aegean – the Ermioni village. With a traditional pebbled road, lined up with cozy tavernas, Ermioni has its charm.. However, its compact size and layout means it’s just as easy to navigate on foot, where you can stroll its romantic cobble-stoned backstreets and narrow village walkways.
As the heat rises, spend the afternoon in the calm waters swimming or by SUP (stand-up paddleboarding) in the tranquil bay on the Ermioni coastline, or pass the time idly dining in a tavern, awaiting one of the best sunsets in Greece.
Day 6 -
We will moor at the tiny fishing village of Perdika, perched on the idyllic eastern shores of Aegina Island, known for its temple of Athena Aphaia.
Here you can indulge in some the Saronic Islands’ best seafood, as well as spend the afternoon swimming in the crystal-clear waters and wandering around the picture-perfect bay, before heading to the taverna-lined harbour for the last Greek island feast.
Day 7 -
After a refreshing morning swim in the sparkling blues of the Aegean Sea, we’ll set sail for our final destination on your island-hopping sailing trip. Enjoy the sea breeze and ocean views as you relax onboard.
We’ll arrive back in Athens in plenty of time for you to continue your exploration of the city. Our crew will be on hand to give you some top tips and local insights, to find corners of the city you wouldn’t otherwise know.
Day 8 -
As we come back in full circle to Athens, this is our departure day, where you’ll be saying goodbye to your new friends and your crew.
Hopefully, we will see you again next year for more sailing around the Greek islands.
