I have used Hinde and Kitch on three occasions now and they have never disappointed. They go above and beyond to help with whatever is needed. Their guidance and professionalism is unparalleled, finding the perfect boat for our group and suggesting three fantastic spots for our holidays. We even got a yacht upgrade last year!

- Day 1
Athens to Hydra, 36Nm
Away from cruise ships and mainstream tourists, the island of Hydra is noticeably quieter than many other islands you will visit because there are no cars allowed here. The only vehicles you will see are rubbish disposal related. Walking through the streets you can once again enjoy the charm of the local people and their businesses, which highly depend on the visitors to the island.
- Day 2
Hydra to Spetses, 15Nm
Belonging to the Saronic gulf, this part of Greece has a different taste to the Cycladic one with trees close to the sea and tranquil water. Enjoy lunch on board your charter yacht before cruising to the main port where you will spend the night. There is a wonderful opportunity here to take an excursion through the old town on a chariot. From 1821 to 1832 Spetses Isla played an important role in the Greek War of Independence in fighting against the Turks, and was the home of celebrated war heroine Bouboulina.
- Day 3
Spetses to Poros, 37Nm
As two separate islands joined together by a bridge, these islands boast incredibly lush, green backdrops and a selection of pretty beaches. Strolling around the streets, you can get your first impression of the small family-run businesses which appear at every corner and the attractive neoclassical architecture.
- Day 4
Poros to Galaxidi, 70Nm
Surrounded by lovely beaches and taverns, Galaxidi is a beautiful town which has a long history of shipbuilding. Meander through the streets until you find a cosy spot to have breakfast while you people watch the locals set up market stalls. Following this, you will re-live the local history with a visit to the maritime museum.
- Day 5
Galaxidi to Zakinthos, 90Nm
Another worthwhile sight on Zakynthos, which has made the rounds of the island through postcards that represent it on every occasion, is the Navayio (Shipwreck) on its west side. Definitely one of the most famous and the most photographed beaches of Greece. Vertical rocks towering over a rusty shipwreck abandoned in the middle of the beach (it was wrecked in 1983 while it was carrying smuggled cigarettes) with the blue Ionian sea in the background stimulate the imagination and create images from times long past.
- Day 6
Zakinthos to Ithaki, 45Nm
As for Ithaca beaches, they are stunning! Filiatro, Sarakiniko and Agios Ioannis are some of the best-organized beaches in Ithaca. If you fancy a quiet day at the beach, there are also many secluded coves. Dive in the crystal-clear water of Ithaca beaches, hike along the island’s trekking paths, eat fresh fish and seafood at the traditional taverns, do romantic walks along the seafront promenade of Vathy, chat with the warm-hearted locals…
- Day 7
Ithaki to Lefkada, 25Nm
Nydri is the most busy-travelled tourist resort of Lefkada. One of the first regions with tourist development. It is located in the southeast part of the island, 17km from the town. The settlement is built in an idyllic location. Vineyards, fertile valleys and aromatic gardens attract visitors. Nydri has a beautiful beach ideal for the lovers of swimming and water sports. Right in front the marina you will find many shops, taverns and coffeehouses. The small islands of Madouri with the old mansion of Valaoritis, Scorpio, Onasis private island, Scorpidi and Meganisi are right across Nydri. From Nydri you can take a boat and visit all those islands.

Lefkada to Paxoi, 33Nm
Paxoi, as all the Ionian Islands, is characterized by rich vegetation and is particularly famous for its immense olive groves. It is a charming, non-touristy island on the western coast of Greece. It is known for its unpretentious, slow pace of life, crystal clear waters and steep chalky cliffs, and a plethora of olive groves.
- Day 9
Paxoi to Kafalonia, 54Nm
Here you will see celebrities’ yachts that visit the island. And this is natural as Fiskardo has an international fame and many are those that visit it just to see this graphic port. A stroll in the traditional settlement will fill you with unique pictures of baronial Kefalonia, you will see nowhere else in the island. The old mansion from the 18th century with small balconies, narrow paths, hundreds tourist shops, fish taverns and coffeehouses create pictures taken from an art picture.
- Day 10
Kafalonia to Itea-Delphoi, 86Nm
Colourful fishing boats line the busy little port of Marina Grande, entry to the famous isle of Capri in Italy’s Bay of Naples. Your first view upon approach is of the iconic Faraglioni, a cluster of three rock formations said to be home to the mythical sirens who tempted Odysseus with their songs. Today’s travellers are enchanted by the spectacular views from Villa San Michele and atop Mount Solaro.
- Day 11
Itea-Delphoi to Mykonos, 183Nm
This destination is well known for having an incredible night scene so pace yourself throughout the day to prepare for the evening’s festivities. On arrival at the island, you can take some time to relax on the popular sandy beaches or jump straight in to exploring the terrain by moving up into the hills to see the 16th-century windmills. Most of the windmills were built by the Venetians but some construction work was not completed until the early 20th century.
- Day 13
Mykonos to Voulliagmeni, 84Nm
Vouliagmeni is the only really green suburb that is situated at the beaches of Saronikos. Surrounded by hills that are full of pine trees and end to exquisite, sandy seashores and the clear blue sea, it is a source of life and recreation for its citizens and visitors.
