Full Day Sailing Cruise Halkidiki
7 hours of pure freedom across the turquoise waters of Halkidiki
Full Day Sailing Cruise
The full day sailing cruise Halkidiki is seven hours of coastline that most visitors to the peninsula never see. Secluded coves, uninhabited islands, crystal-clear water, and the kind of afternoon at anchor that makes you wonder why you didn’t book a sailing cruise on the first day of your holiday.
Our sailing yachts accommodate up to 11 guests. They are smaller and more intimate than a catamaran, with a completely different character on the water. This is authentic sailing: the heel of the hull, the sound of the rigging, the sails drawing in a reliable Aegean breeze. Our professional skipper handles everything. No sailing experience required.

The route

We depart in the morning and set sail toward Kelyfos Island, one of the most beautiful uninhabited islands in Halkidiki, surrounded by turquoise water ideal for a first swim and snorkeling. From there, we continue along the coastline to the Spalathronisia Islands, a small archipelago with some of the finest swimming water in northern Greece. Lunch is served there at anchor, either prepared on board or at a local taverna ashore.
The afternoon takes us to the secret coves of Porto Carras: private anchorages tucked below pine-covered hillsides, accessible only from the sea. When the wind is right, we sail rather than motor, and on a full day sailing cruise Halkidiki there is usually time for both. We return to the departure point as the sun drops toward the horizon, leaving you with the kind of appetite that only a day at sea can produce.

We operate the full day sailing cruise Halkidiki from three locations across Kassandra and Sithonia. Choose the departure point closest to where you’re staying.
Departure points
At the southern tip of the Kassandra peninsula, Paliouri Chrousso Pier puts you in open water immediately. Ideal for guests staying anywhere along the Kassandra coast, from Nea Moudania to Paliouri.
On the western coast of Sithonia, Porto Carras Marina is perfectly positioned for the Toronaios Gulf and the secret coves of the Porto Carras estate. Ample parking available. Guests at Porto Carras resort board directly from the marina.
At the northeastern tip of Sithonia, Ormos Panagias is the gateway to the Diaporos archipelago and the Blue Lagoon at Agios Isidoros, some of the most extraordinary swimming water in Halkidiki. A full day sailing cruise from this base includes Diaporos as a possible destination, making it one of the most spectacular routes we offer.
