Princess 47 - Private Full Day Cruise

Step aboard the Princess 47 for a full-day private cruise from Alimos Marina in Άλιμος, Greece, and you trade the city for salt air, grape-stained cafés, and an afternoon of small-island exploration. The 14.5‑metre Princess 47, fully refit in 2023, balances classic flybridge lines with modern comforts—three private cabins (including a master en‑suite), air conditioning, WiFi, and a generator—so a day feels like a mini-yacht escape. With a skipper and crew managing navigation and service, your itinerary is all about where to swim, snorkel, and step ashore.

Two popular routes let you tailor the day. The Islands Route threads through the Saronic Gulf to Moni and Metopi islets, Aegina, and Agkistri, delivering turquoise water, pine-fringed coves, and shallow reefs ideal for snorkelling. Aegina’s harbour offers a coffee stop and the chance to taste the island’s famed pistachios.

The Athenian Riviera & Sounio Route keeps you close to Athens’ shoreline, with secluded bay swims and a memorable approach to Cape Sounio where the Temple of Poseidon (5th century BCE) perches on the headland, dramatic when viewed from the water. What sets this charter apart is the blend of personal space and on-deck play: a SUP, a seascooter, snorkelling gear, plus crew who anchor in sheltered bays, launch toys, and prepare simple Greek bites if requested. The vessel sleeps up to six for those who want an overnight extension, but the eight‑hour day option is geared toward groups of 1–10 wanting a single indulgent day at sea.

Practical notes: check-in is at Alimos Marina, Pier 2, Spot 89 (arrive early for the safety briefing), departures typically leave at 9:30 AM, and the trip is not wheelchair accessible due to boarding constraints. SailBliss’ Princess 47 is a rare offering in the Athens area: a classic British-built yacht refit for contemporary cruising with a full crew and water-toy package that removes the logistics and leaves room for swimming, sampling local flavours, and coastal viewing. Bring swimwear, reef-friendly sunscreen, and a good camera; leave bulky luggage ashore.

Weather-dependent scheduling keeps safety first—bookings canceled 48 hours in advance receive a full refund, and hotel transfers are available for a modest fee. Children under 18 must travel with an adult, and dietary needs can be accommodated if you notify the crew ahead of time. Expect to see schools of Mediterranean fish and occasional octopus in the coves; keep a respectful distance and avoid touching reefs.

For photographers, the flybridge offers elevated framing for the Temple of Poseidon and coastal silhouettes and soft evening golden light. For a first-time island hop from Athens or a repeat visit that wants something private and polished, this yacht delivers an uncomplicated, high-comfort day on one of Europe’s most immediately rewarding coastlines.
