Looking for an authentic Athonian experience? Look no further than our incredible boat trip to Mount Athos! As you may know, women are not permitted to access Mount Athos directly, which is why we offer a luxurious sightseeing cruise that allows you to admire the breathtaking views of the monasteries from a permissible distance.
During the cruise, you will have the opportunity to explore the imposing western part of the Holy Monasteries of Athos and experience the natural beauty of Halkidiki, including its traditional villages and ancient towns. Our route is designed to offer you the best possible views of the stunning coastline and ocean views on the horizon, while also providing a chance to see the holy monasteries up close. Our multilingual guide on board will have a pleasure sharing his passion and knowledge of the region. After visiting the monasteries, our vessel will pass above a local reef that is famous for its underwater views. With our glass bottom boat, you will be able to admire the stunning seabed like never before. To make the experience even more enjoyable, a wide range of soft drinks, beer, wine, cocktails, and snacks will be purchasable at our bar onboard.
