Agion Oros (Holy Mountain), also known as Mount Athos, is located on the easternmost peninsula of Halkidiki in Northern Greece. It is a unique spiritual center dedicated entirely to prayer and worship. An Orthodox monastic state since 1054, has been self-governed since Byzantine times and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1988. It features 20 "sovereign" monasteries, along with sketae, huts, cells, and hermitages. All monasteries follow a coenobitic lifestyle, with shared liturgy, housing, meals and work. Governed by the "Holy Community" under the Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople, Mount Athos is accessible only to men, as the “AVATON” rule prohibits entry to women. The towering 2,033-meter peak of Mount Athos offers breathtaking views, while the lush slopes, ancient forests, and flowing waters create an enchanting natural setting. Its monasteries, with castle-like architecture, intricate woodwork, murals and psalmodies, embody centuries of art, history, and devotion.

This is a fully private 5-hour cruise — no shared groups, no fixed itinerary. The price covers your entire group (up to 8 guests), not per person. Just your party, your skipper, and the waters of Diaporos entirely to yourselves. Diaporos is one of the Aegean's best-kept secrets — a cluster of uninhabited islands rising from glass-clear water just off the Sithonia peninsula. Departing from either Vourvourou (Ekies Resort) or Ouranoupoli (Eagles Resort), the route covers Halkidiki's most beautiful and least crowded coves: Hawaii Beach (Myrsini), the Blue Lagoon, Karydi Beach, and the pristine double-sided beaches of Ampelitsi and Peristeri Island. From Ouranoupoli, an optional lunch stop at Ormos Panagias adds a taste of local seafood to the day. Your skipper adapts the pace and stops to suit your group. The cruise operates aboard our Axopar 28 T-Top — a premium 28ft vessel with a 300HP Mercury engine, built for open water and comfortable for up to 7 guests.

This is a private sunset cruise. The price covers your entire group (up to 7 guests), not per person. Just your party, your skipper, and the Ionian Sea entirely to yourselves. Evening is the best time to be on the water at Vourvourou. The day-trippers have gone, the bay is calm, and the light turns the whole archipelago gold. Departing from Vourvourou Beach in front of Ekies All Senses Resort, the route takes you to the Blue Lagoon — a natural pool of turquoise water sheltered between the islands of Diaporos — for a late swim as the sun begins to drop. From there, your skipper heads to Karydi Beach for a quiet stop before guiding you slowly back through Vourvourou Bay, with front-row views of the sunset reflecting across the water and the mountains of Sithonia. The cruise operates aboard our Axopar 28 T-Top — a premium 28ft vessel with a 300HP Mercury engine, comfortable for up to 7 guests. Departures from Vourvourou Beach, in front of Ekies All Senses Resort.
