Itinerary
Day 1 – Athens
Your sailing trip in Greece starts in the port “Marina Alimos” (Athens), where boats will be delivered. We could meet a couple of hours earlier to get to know each other and build the foundation of our adventure… A briefing with the skipper and a dinner all together is perfect for getting to know each other. Dinner available with reservation.
Day 2 – Hydra
If you love to walk, you are on the right island. Hydra is completely “car free” and is the dream of every walker! Donkeys and horses are the biggest attraction of this island and, given the lack of cars, are also the most used means of transport! Hydra has always been known as the “second home of the Athenians”. Here the most cultured and refined citizens use to take appointments with prestigious international guests.
Day 3 – Ermioni
Ermioni is the classic Mediterranean island, with its typical smells and colours. If you are looking for an oasis of relax, you have just found it!
Day 4 – Spetses
Spetses Island is “close” to Italians: its current name is a gift from the Venetians, who named it “the island of spices” because of the scents of Mediterranean herbs emanated from its vegetation. The Island tour on horse-drawn carriages is unmissable!
Day 5 – Porto Heli
The sailing trip in Greece continues with the destination that every party lover was waiting for: the home of the Nikki Beach, famous meeting point for thousands of people from all over the world. Music, drinks and joy will walk you through this place where everything is possible!
Day 6 – Dokos
50. It is the number of inhabitants of this island that became famous for the discovery of an ancient merchant ship wreck dating from the beginning of 2200 B.C. 50… However, in the summer, the island is invaded by tourists. Some are visiting for religious reasons (to visit the Convent of St. Eufrasia) while others just prefer to invigorate the body rather than the soul.
Day 7 – Egina or Aegina
A favorite destination of Athenians on holiday, offers a huge chioce of attractions and breathtaking beaches!
Day 8 – Atene
Check-out is scheduled at 9.00 am. All participants will have to plan their return journey independently.
Goodbyes are never pleasant, especially when you had some much funs… The trip to Greece is over, but we know it’s just a goodbye!

The boats
The sailboat is a cozy floating house that allows you to visit places otherwise inaccessible by land and allows you to experience the sea from a completely different perspective. It is not just a mean to get to places otherwise inaccessible, it is a life style.
All boats are equipped with double cabins with double beds or bunk beds. This means that if you are not travelling with someone you know you will share the cabin with a new friend. The cabins are generally homogeneous by gender (men with men and women with women). Alternatively, you will have the opportunity to book the entire cabin for yourself or the whole yacht with all your old friends. Every boat is equipped with 2, 3 or 4 bathrooms. The kitchen includes a hob, oven and a large fridge. All Outcage boats guarantee the highest standards of safety and comfort. Throughout the winter, we select our boats carefully from certified shipping companies. Each boat is always newly built and has all the available options for cruising. Our itineraries are created paying the utmost attention to the locations, to ensure the right mix of fun, relaxation and breathtaking views.
JUST SIT DOWN, RELAX AND HAVE FUN!
The Crews
Whether you are an expert or a novice, crews are prepared previously to departure, and informed about essential rules concerning safety in particular.
We place the utmost attention in creating heterogeneous crews by gender and age of participants. Once you get on board, the skipper will take the lead.
For those who show interest in learning about navigation, there will be the chance to learn some notions of sailing and some essential sailor’s knots!
Skippers
Our commanders, coordinated by a skipper who is familiar with all the destinations, are top level professional. Each of them has plenty of navigation experience and has attended a training course lasted all winter in order to get ready to welcome and guide you through this unique experience! The skipper is the most experienced and the highest authority on board. He is in charge of leading the boat and is responsible for everything that happens on board. They will be available for helping you out in every situation. Every day the skippers will coordinate the routes to be taken, always keeping in mind the needs of the members of the crews on board. Each choice will be made to ensure the highest degree of safety for all members of the crew.
