Saturday — boarding
Our Dodecanese adventure begins at Kos Marina, with initial introductions, provisioning, and the thrill of boarding, knowing an unforgettable week among the Greek islands is about to begin. After settling into our cabins, we'll begin to familiarize ourselves with the catamaran and the pace of life on board.
After leaving port, we'll sail towards Kardamena, on the southern coast of Kos, enjoying the warm Aegean breeze alongside the other crews following the same route through the Greek islands. Early evening will be the perfect time to truly get into the holiday mood: a sunset aperitif at anchor, dinner on board, music, barefoot moments on deck, and the first chats under the Greek sky.
Sunday
As the sun sets over the Aegean Sea, we'll embark on one of the most evocative experiences of the week: a night sail to the small island of Chalki, far from the crowded tourist routes and famous for its quiet bays and authentic Dodecanese atmosphere.
At dawn, we'll drop anchor in the beautiful Pondamos Bay, surrounded by sandy beaches, crystal-clear waters, and characteristic white chapels overlooking the sea. Here, we'll enjoy a leisurely morning of swimming, snorkeling, freediving, and relaxing at anchor. Those who wish can explore the island with a scenic walk amidst the colors and scents of Greece.
In the afternoon, we'll continue to the southern coast of Alimia, a wild and almost uninhabited island, where we'll gather for a sunset aperitif, dinner under the stars, and the evocative spectacle of the boats moored side by side.
Monday
After breakfast, we'll leave the anchorage to sail to the small island of Agios Minas, one of the most secluded and fascinating places in the Dodecanese. Tranquil bays, transparent seabeds, and crystal-clear waters make this area perfect for snorkeling and freediving. With fins and masks, we'll also have the opportunity to explore a fascinating submerged shipwreck, one of the most unique spots in the area.
Later, we'll disembark to visit the characteristic white chapel overlooking the sea, while the more adventurous can climb up to the castle overlooking the bay, which offers spectacular views of the deep blue Aegean and the anchored boats.
The day will continue with swimming, relaxation, and shared moments on board until the evening, with aperitifs, music, and an authentic Greek atmosphere under the stars.
Tuesday
The morning sail will take us to the small island of Troupetto, perfect for starting the day with breakfast on board, a first swim, and crystal-clear waters in the heart of the Aegean. A quiet spot to relax before reaching one of the week's most iconic destinations.
In the afternoon, we'll arrive in Symi, one of the pearls of the Dodecanese, famous for its colorful harbor, neoclassical houses overlooking the sea, and its authentic Greek atmosphere. After docking, we'll have time to stroll through the harbor's streets, discover quaint tavernas, and admire the sunset over the sea.
The evening will continue with a Greek dinner, aperitif, and our Total White Party, featuring music, laughter, and the illuminated port of Symi.
Wednesday
Leaving Symi port, we'll sail toward the beautiful Omanau Bay, one of the island's most peaceful and picturesque corners. Here, we'll enjoy a leisurely breakfast at anchor, swimming, snorkeling, and relaxing in the deep blue Aegean Sea, surrounded only by the sea and the other boats in the flotilla.
In the afternoon, we'll continue to spectacular Saint George Bay, famous for its imposing cliff rising vertically from the sea and considered one of Symi's most iconic sights. Those who wish can visit the small monastery overlooking the bay or relax on the beach and enjoy a last swim of the day.
In the evening, we'll meet again for a sunset aperitif at anchor, dinner on board, and a peaceful night under the stars, immersed in the unique atmosphere of the Dodecanese.
Thursday
After breakfast, we'll set sail for Nisyros, one of the most captivating volcanic islands in the Dodecanese. Here, the landscape changes completely: dark rocks, rugged coastlines, and the volcano dominating the island create an almost lunar atmosphere. We'll stop in a sheltered bay to enjoy swimming, snorkeling, and relaxing in the blue waters of the Aegean.
After lunch, we'll continue to Gyali, a small island famous for its crystal-clear waters and white beaches created by volcanic pumice. We'll drop anchor immersed in the silence and extraordinary colors of one of Greece's most unique corners.
The evening will continue with an aperitif and dinner on the beach, featuring music, barefoot moments on the sand, and sunsets overlooking the anchored boats.
Friday
Our last day in the Dodecanese will begin with a leisurely breakfast at anchor in Gyali, surrounded by the crystal-clear waters and tranquility of this small volcanic island. Before leaving the anchorage, we'll have time to swim, snorkel, and explore its white beaches overlooking the deep blue Aegean.
In the afternoon, we set sail for Kos, enjoying the last few miles of sailing amidst the wind, sun, and that special atmosphere that comes after a week spent at sea. The perfect time to relax on the catamaran, share a few last smiles, and slowly bid farewell to the Greek islands.
In the evening, we'll meet ashore for a final dinner among tavernas, music, and the illuminated port of Kos, before the final party that will end the week in the best possible way.
