Location
Arrival Day
Your yacht will be waiting for you at Lavario Marina, located south of Athens, less than an hour drive from the airport. Upon your arrival you and your friends will check in, get your boat and get ready to sail. We recommend that you come to the marina earlier in the afternoon if you want to leave Lavario on the first day. If you arrive after 5pm you might have to stay the night in the marina if it is too dark and/or windy. If you think you can’t make it before 5pm don’t worry, Lavario offers great bars, night clubs and restaurants where you can enjoy your first evening.
For those who will be ready to leave early we recommend that you set sail for one of the natural bays on the west side of the peninsula. There are a few different possibilities of how you can spend your time when the sun goes down, again depending on wind and weather. We will give you all needed information upon your arrival.
Poros
Poros harbour is well sheltered between two islands. This is the largest port on the route. The town is magnificent and offers very good night life as well as shopping and culture. Mega yachts, sailing yachts and fishermen fill up the beautiful port and create a lively and fun atmosphere! In the evening everyone moves to a bar/night club together.
Dhokos
In this natural bay you can anchor up and enjoy romantic music and late night swimming. All the yachts will be lined up next to each other. Dinner on board followed with socialising and having lots of fun. The crystal clear water and moon light offers great night swimming.
Plaka
The small port of Plaka is located on the Peloponnesus Peninsula. The town has a few cozy restaurants and a very nice night club. Don’t miss this evening! We promise unique Greek dining for you and your crew. The night club in town will be the place to dance and drink until sunrise.
Spetses
The island of Spetses comes high recommended and is a very exclusive and charming resort frequently visited by Athenians. It has a small port and a nice town filled with boutiques and bars. Spetses has several high class restaurants where you can enjoy some classic Greek food. Please note that the harbour is very small, so if you go here, you must arrive early to find a spot in the marina.
Hydra
Heads up for one of the most magnificent islands in Greece! Hydra is the definition of tranquility and relaxation. Situated on a steep mountain slope in a sheltered bay; a walk up the winding roads of the town is guaranteed to offer a magnificent view. In the evening we will organise a dinner at the Sunset restaurant followed by a party at Omilos Bar/Club. Hydra has since long been a hideout for famous personalities such as the Rolling Stones, Leonard Cohen and the Onassis Family – you will soon understand why! The harbour is quite small, so make sure to be there on time – as usual
.
Lavrio
Boats should leave Hydra by 8am to start the 6-9 hours sail back to Lavrio. This can be a windy sail so if you are a keen sailor this is the day for you! All boats should be back in Lavrio harbour by 18:00 to do check out on your boat with the yachting agency. You can still stay on your boat till 9am on Saturday. After check out there is time for a quick dinner, either in town or on your boat, and then its off to the last night party organised by TYW, which will involve dancing into the early hours of the morning.
