Sailing Athens & More Boat Holidays

For many sailing holidaymakers your Greek islands sailing itinerary should also include a brief stopover on the mainland in Athens. With vibrant, chaotic and charming areas around every corner there is much to do and see. Spend a bit of time exploring Athens before sailing to the many islands. You can enquire about package sailing deals that include hotel accommodation by writing your yacht charter Greece request on our 48 Options sailing Greece homepage. It's a completely free service and you can ask for special rates, tours, charter itineraries and anything else pertaining to your sailing holiday in Greece. We'll send your request to the best yacht charter companies who will contact you within 48 hours with responses and special deals tailored especially for you.

So, when you are visiting Athens there are a few things not to be missed. Of course number one is the Acropolis and the awe-inspiring Parthenon, a draw-card for all tourists in town and it is by far the best 360 degree view of the city. History buffs will also enjoy the museum housing a world-renowned collection of Greek antiquities and the busy paved streets of Plaka down below heading towards the chaotic Central Market will ensure a true experience of Athenian life. For a bit of downtime, treat your taste buds by visiting the many tavernas in Monistiraki or find a quiet cafe in Plaka where you can relax and unwind. Take a couple of days to explore Athens before hopping on your charter boat from the main port Pireaus, your gateway to the Greek islands.
