Sailingtrip Saronic : 25th May – 7th june 1996


Hi,
this is a summary of our first sailing trip in Greece, 20 years ago.

Our first sailing trip in the Med was from 25th of May untill the 7th of June 1996.

We chartered a Moody 31 from GM-Yachting in the Marina Kalamaki in Athens.

We logged ca.153 NM and went to the following harbours or bays :
Marina Kalamaki, Angistri, Palea Epidavros, Poros, Dhokos, Spetses, Korakonissia, Hydra, Poros, Moni, Perdika & Aegina.

For most of the days the weather was sunny and ca. 30 °C, we only had 2 rainy (stormy) days.

Nowhere we had to pay a harbourfee.

The cost of a full diner (starters, main courses, wine, beer,...) at a seaside taverna was about 13500 Drachmas for 5 persons (= ca. 8 Euro pro person).

It’s was a beautifull trip, one we never will forget ... and since that time we are hooked on sailing in Greece & the Med !

Underneath you can find some pictures from 20 years ago ...

Grtz,
