Pack light, in a soft duffel bag or backpack (hard suitcases are nearly impossible to store on board). Bring what you need to feel at ease: swimwear, a good book, sunscreen, a hat, sunglasses, comfortable shoes for a short stroll, and your easiest-going mood.

Do I need any prior sailing experience?

No. This is a private, skippered charter. Your licensed skipper handles all navigation, sailing, and docking. Your only job is to relax, enjoy the scenery, and perhaps take a turn at the helm if you feel curious.

What happens if the weather is too rough?

Your comfort and safety are our top priorities. The Saronic Gulf is known for its generally mild conditions, but if the forecast shows strong winds or rough seas that would make sailing uncomfortable, your skipper will adapt the plan. We may stay in a charming port to explore ashore, or move to a more sheltered anchorage for swimming and relaxation. The week's itinerary is always flexible to ensure you have an enjoyable and stress-free experience, regardless of the weather.

What does a typical day look like?

Mornings start relaxed, with a swim or coffee. We'll sail for a few gentle hours to a new island or bay. Afternoons are for exploring, swimming, or napping. Evenings are for sunset drinks and long taverna dinners ashore. The rhythm is easy and adapts to your mood.

What is the cancellation policy?

We have a three-tier cancellation policy to ensure fairness for all: • 0% Fee: For cancellations made within the first 24 hours of booking. • 20% Fee: For cancellations made more than 60 days before the trip start date. • 100% Fee: For cancellations made within 60 days of the trip start date.

Experience the true meaning of il dolce far niente, the simple joy of being. This is a private sailing trip for those who value authentic relaxation and meaningful moments over fancy frills.

While our other voyages focus on building skills or seeking adventure, La Dolce Vita is dedicated to unwinding. We trade crowded marinas for remote, pristine anchorages. We'll mix these peaceful nights with visits to the timeless harbors of islands like Poros, Hydra or Spetses.

This is an invitation to slow down, breathe deeply, and connect with the simple beauty of the Greek coast. It's for easy-going sailors who prefer a good book and a stunning sunset over anything pretentious.

Your Skipper

Seasoned, Safe, Easy-Going

You'll be in good hands. Your skipper will be your go-to for everything from handling the boat, to sharing stories about the islands, to making simple, smart suggestions that make your day better.

We pick them for their skill, their knowledge, and because they're good, easy-going people you'd want to share a sunset with. You can expect the same standard of competent, friendly, and genuinely helpful service on every trip.

The Area

Into the Saronic Rhythm

Your journey begins at Alimos Marina in Athens. A typical week flows like this: You'll board your private yacht on a Saturday afternoon. Over the next six days, we'll hop between 3-4 iconic islands like Hydra, Spetses, or Poros, and discover numerous secluded bays perfect for swimming.

Each day involves a few hours of gentle sailing, leaving plenty of time to explore ashore, enjoy long lunches, and find a beautiful spot to drop anchor for the night.

Your skipper will handle all navigation and mooring, offering suggestions while leaving the final say on the day's pace and focus entirely up to you and your group.

The rhythm is easy and adaptable. Some days we might dock in a picturesque harbor for dinner at a waterfront taverna; other nights we'll have the anchorage all to ourselves under the stars.
