Itinerary
Day 1: Athens
Day 2: Athens/Northern Cyclades
While in the Cyclades, stroll through the markets of Syros, finding countless treasures and must-grab deals along the way. Visit the stone lion on Kea and make sure to stop in at a family-owned silver shop before watching the sunset. Kythnos offers a special treat of seeing the sunrise while soaking in local hot springs.
Another favourite among travellers is a stopover in Hydra. Take a local “taxi” (donkey ride) to see the sights of this charming island where there are no cars allowed. It's not hard to see why Hydra has inspired painters and writers the world over.
Gaze at the churches and temples of Aegina, immersing yourself in history. Wander through the local fish market to truly appreciate your meal at the tavern.

Great way to see the islands, an excellent time to travel to avoid most of the crowds (except on Mykonos)

This was a purely adventurous trip! The wind predicted the type of sailing day we were going to have. Thankfully luck was on our side and we were able to hit many beautiful islands. But I can see how it may not always be the case.

We enjoyed the Greek island sailing as a family. The travellers, the sights, the skipper and food.

We were able to visit the smaller islands and experience the local cuisine and culture. Getting there was half the fun. Each day was different depending on the winds. The other six people on the boat were like-minded and shared similar interests. Our skipper was more than competent and he was very knowledgeable about what there was to see and do in each port.

The trip was advertised in a way that met my expectations. There were some details / experiences offered for different islands that did not materialize. Like for example dinner with a local family. it's a minor thing, but is actually some thing I was kind of hoping that we would get to do. All the dinners were lovely as We were all together and had a great time however.
