Athens: Saronic island cruise with taverna lunch and four stops

Most Saronic day cruises run three stops and serve lunch on deck. This one runs four, Agkistri, Metopi, Aegina, and Aphaia's Grotto, with a sit-down taverna lunch in Aegina, not a buffet on deck.The Calypso Kos is a traditional wooden gulet. Open deck, crew of four. You board at Flisvos Marina in Paleo Faliro, minutes from central Athens, no Piraeus traffic, and settle in with a filema: a welcome box of Greek products, coffee, and juice.Agkistri is pine-covered and quiet, one of the least-developed islands in the Saronic Gulf. Metopi is uninhabited, no beach, no vendors, you drop into the sea directly from the vessel. In Aegina, lunch is ashore at a local taverna, with time to walk the harbour and find the island's famous pistachios. Aphaia's Grotto is a secluded cove below the ancient Temple of Aphaia that almost no other operator includes.Unlimited drinks throughout, soft drinks, water, coffee, tea, beer, and wine. Boarding 08:00, departure 08:30. Back by 19:15.
