Base - Athens - Kalamaki/ALIMOS
From the base in Athens, Kalamaki marina, you can follow two main sailing
routes: The Saronic route and the Cyclades route. The Saronic
islands of Aegina, Poros, Angistri, Hydra, Dokos, Spetses and the
Peloponnesian coast offer smooth sailing sheltered from strong winds.
The Saronic route is highly recommended for easy sailing, especially in July
and August for avoiding the strong winds blowing down in the Cyclades, also
for a shorter break of less than two weeks. Along this route you will find
many Cosmopolitan towns, ancient temples, Byzantine castles, small fishing
ports and unspoiled anchorages.
You should not miss a visit to Poros, Hydra, Spetses, also Yerakas,
Leonidion, Monemvasia (referred to as the Greek Gibraltar), Elaphonissos and
Kithira will also surprise you for their natural beauty, sandy beaches, the
totally unspoiled and friendly small ports and peaceful anchorages. Contact
us for a suggested route with a broader description of the area.
Weather & Wind
The Meltemi (winds from the North usually strong especially
in July and August) does not blow as regularly as it does in the Cyclades or
the Dodecanese, if it does blow from North to North East, its strength is
usually about force 4-5, it is normally less around the Methana peninsula
and Poros.
If the Meltemi does not blow, the wind is generally from the South, force
2-3. In the Hydra Gulf and Argolic Gulf, the wind is mostly from the South
East, blowing force 3-5 dying down at night.
On the Eastern Peloponnesus coast, the wind may be a weak Meltemi from the
North East or a southerly usually from the South East. During spring and
autumn, the winds are normally weaker and from the South over the whole
area.
