Taking a one-day cruise is a perfect way to escape from the hustling and bustling of Athens! And although the islands to be visited are only at a very short distance of the mainland, it still gives you the feeling of being in a totally different world. In Aegina you can take the optional tour to the Ancient Temple of Aphaia, in Poros you can walk to the clock-tower and admire the panoramic view. In Hydra you will be indulged in the atmosphere of the international Jet-Set, who has chosen this island as one of its favorite resorts. There is something for everyone; for lovers of history, culture, and natural beauty!

	Aegina The largest and most important island in the Saronic Gulf inhabited since the 2nd millennium BC. Aegina has a very rich past and fascinating present. The island is famous for its pistachio groves on which its economy is mainly based. In the port itself you will see the typical fish market and admire the very colorful floating fruit and vegetable market. Why not join the optional excursion to learn about the history of the island? A coach will transfer you first to the Cathedral of Saint Nectarios; of Byzantine architecture it holds the silver carved tomb and the relics of this saint. Then, you will pay a visit to the Doric temple of Aphaia, one of the best preserved temples in Greece, built in the 5th century BC. Built on top of a wooded hill, it offers a magnificent panoramic view of the island and the Saronic Gulf.
	Poros The smallest of the three islands, separated from the Peloponnesus only by a narrow strait. A very green island covered with pine and lemon trees. You can wander around its small and narrow streets and walk up to the clock-tower to admire the panoramic view.
	Hydra One of the most cosmopolitan islands, a favorite of the international Jet-Set. Wander through its narrow streets, admire the unique architecture of its houses, have a swim in its crystal clear waters, shop in its famous jewelry and art boutiques. Hydra is also the island of artists and a dream for photographers. And don’t forget: cars are not allowed on this island!
