Aegina, Poros and Hydra Excursion

Early in the morning, our coordinator will pick you up in an air-conditioned luxury bus to take you to the port from your hotel or the closest pickup point.

You will first sail to the island of Poros, which is approximately two hours away. During the short crossing, the guide will provide you with information about the islands.

When you arrive at Poros, the smallest of the three islands, you will have an hour's free time to become acquainted with this enchanting island. We recommend a visit to Trinzia, the Russian shipyard, where you can find out more about the cooperation between the Greek and Russian armies during the 18th and 19th centuries. You may also like to take a walk through Lemonodassos, a dense forest of lemon and orange trees, surrounded by windmills and waterfalls.

Back in the cruise ship and on the way to Hydra, you will enjoy lunch with the majestic views of the Mediterranean Sea for approximately an hour.

You will dock at the port of Hydra, whose horseshoe harbor once served as safe shelter to pirates roaming the Saronic Gulf. Located near the island of Spetses, Hydra was once known for its colorful small capital with the picturesque and narrow alleys, charming mansions, and traditional stone houses that have silently withstood a long and turbulent history. The guide will advise you on the best stores and coffee shops, and then you will have the opportunity to explore the place on your own for approximately two hours. Back onboard the ship, the table will be ready for a second-shift lunch.

After lunch, you may relax on deck and enjoy the warm breeze as you sail towards your last stop, the larger island of Aegina.

There, you will be able to walk freely around the town at your own pace. At the busy port of the island, you may enjoy a taste of ouzo in one of the popular ouzo bars combining it with some seafood.

This cruise offers optional activities that are available to book on board. These will allow you to visit and enjoy certain parts of the islands in more depth. Our suggestion is that you take the time to visit and enjoy the islands on your own, go swimming or shop around for local products.

The journey back to the port of Piraeus lasts around one hour. A Greek music and dance show with singers and dancers dressed in traditional costumes will liven up the trip until your arrival at the port. After disembarkation, we will transfer you back to the point where you were picked up. 

Yoorney tip: If you don't taste Aegina's famous pistachios, you'll feel like you've never visited this island.
