A full-day private sail from Kallithea to the Temple of Poseidon — sea vistas, secluded bays and a chef’s table on deck.
From the marinas of the Athenian Riviera to the cliff-top silhouette of the Temple of Poseidon, this private Sea Stars cruise is a deliberate, full-day voyage: a 12-hour, all-private sailing that threads past Glyfada, Vouliagmeni and Anavyssos, drops anchor in turquoise coves for snorkeling and swimming, and anchors beneath Cape Sounion so guests can dine on a chef-prepared Mediterranean lunch while the ancient columns look on.
Highlights
Outing Highlights
Temple of Poseidon from the water
The itinerary brings you to Cape Sounion’s bay so the Temple of Poseidon can be admired from sea — a cinematic vantage that places the ruined Doric columns above your anchorage for an extended, private viewing.
A private chef and a Greek lunch on deck
A dedicated onboard chef prepares a gourmet Mediterranean lunch using local products; the service is integrated into the day so you dine under the temple’s shadow after morning swims.
Secluded swimming stops along the Riviera
The cruise follows the southern Athens coastline, stopping in carefully selected calm bays — ideal for swimming and snorkeling away from crowds along the Attica shore.
What the day feels like
What the day feels like
The rhythm is unhurried and theatrical: a morning embarkation and welcome, a sail past coastal suburbs and beaches punctuated by swims in turquoise coves, an afternoon anchored beneath the Temple of Poseidon for a chef-prepared lunch, then a relaxed return to the marina as the day closes. The vessel is crewed for privacy and comfort, and the full-day format leaves time to lounge on deck, snorkel in clear water and take in long sea views of Cape Sounion.
