Giorno 1 / 7
Kea
1
Giorno 1

Lavrion → Kea (Korissia Harbor)

18 nm shake-down hop east-southeast from Lavrion to Kea. Korissia harbour on the northwest of the island is the larger overnight option (free quay, exposed in N Meltemi above 18 kn); Vourkari Bay 1 nm north is the better-protected alternative with stern-to lazy lines and a string of seafood ouzeris on the waterfront. Plan to be moored before 16:00 — afternoon swell builds at the Korissia entrance once Meltemi exceeds 20 knots.

Cosa fare

Walk to the 6th-century BC Stone Lion of Kea

Snorkel the Patris steamship wreck off Koundouros

Octopus carpaccio at a Vourkari ouzeri

Walk Ioulida marble alleys at dusk

Consiglio per l'ormeggio

Korissia town quay is free but exposed in N Meltemi above 18 kn. Switch to Vourkari Bay (€25-35/night, lazy lines) when wind builds.

Kythnos
2
Giorno 2

Kea → Kythnos (Loutra Harbor)

20 nm south to Kythnos with the Meltemi on the quarter — comfortable downwind reach in the standard summer regime. Loutra on the northeast coast is the headline overnight: small marina with natural thermal springs flowing into the harbour, mineral-rich water at around 38°C. Stern-to with lazy lines, around €25-40/night. Day-anchor at Kolona double-bay (sand spit between Kythnos and the Agios Loukas islet) on the way south for a swim.

Cosa fare

Soak in Loutra natural thermal springs

Anchor swim at the Kolona sandbar

Cycle the Chora-Driopida ridge road

Sfougato cheese pie at a Driopida taverna

Consiglio per l'ormeggio

Stern-to in Loutra harbour, €25-40/night with lazy lines. Sheltered from N. Merichas on the west coast is the alternative if Loutra is full.

Kamares
3
Giorno 3

Kythnos → Sifnos (Kamares Harbor)

28 nm south to Sifnos via Serifos — beam reach in standard Meltemi, fast passage. Kamares Bay on the west coast of Sifnos is the obvious overnight: sheltered from N and NE but opens to W. In late August when the Meltemi has a westerly component, swell rolls in and the bay can become unsettled — switch to Platys Gialos on the south coast. Sifnos is the gastronomy island of the Cyclades: chickpea revithada cooked overnight in a wood oven, mastelo lamb in clay pots.

Cosa fare

Walk to cliffside Chrysopigi monastery at Faros

Mastelo lamb in clay pots at Artemonas

Pottery workshop visit in Vathy

Swim Vathi Bay (south coast, calmest swim)

Consiglio per l'ormeggio

Anchor on sand at 5-8 m in Kamares Bay or stern-to on the small quay (€20-30/night). Switch to Platys Gialos south coast when wind clocks west.

Serifos
4
Giorno 4

Sifnos → Serifos (Koutalas Beach)

Short 14 nm hop north to Serifos. Koutalas Bay on the south coast is the day-anchor for swim and snorkel — sheltered from N Meltemi by the headland. Move to Livadi for the overnight: the main port on the south coast funnels the Meltemi but holds well on sand. Drag is the most common Serifos charter incident — set anchor with long scope, dive to verify, stay aboard for the first hour after mooring. Chora is a 30-minute donkey-path climb above the harbour.

Cosa fare

Walk the donkey path up to Chora

Revithada chickpea stew in a kafeneio

Swim Psili Ammos beach (south coast)

Sunset at the windmills above Chora

Consiglio per l'ormeggio

Day-anchor at Koutalas on sand at 5-7 m. Overnight in Livadi Bay anchored on sand at 5-8 m, long scope mandatory, or stern-to on town quay €20-30/night.

Kythnos
5
Giorno 5

Serifos → Kythnos (Merichas Harbor)

15 nm north back to Kythnos, this time to Merichas on the west coast — small ferry port, family tavernas on the quay, an easier mooring than the Kolona anchorage if winds are forecast to build. Day-anchor at Apokrousi cove for lunch (sheltered from N), then move to Merichas for the overnight. Walk up to Chora for the panoramic ridge views; the road from Merichas to Chora is one of the prettier rural drives in the western Cyclades.

Cosa fare

Day-anchor lunch at Apokrousi cove

Walk Merichas-Chora ridge road

Soak in Loutra hot springs (taxi)

Sunset drinks at the Merichas pier

Consiglio per l'ormeggio

Stern-to in Merichas town quay, €20-30/night. Sheltered from N Meltemi. Loutra (north coast) is the alternative for thermal springs; Merichas closer for sailing.

Lavrion
6
Giorno 6

Kythnos → Lavrion

Final leg back — 22 nm northwest to Lavrion. Stop at Cape Sounion on the way for a last anchor swim under Poseidon's temple (anchorage 0.5 nm offshore on sand at 5-8 m, sheltered from N). Refuel at the Lavrion fuel berth before tying up so the boat is handover-ready. The Lavrion Olympic Marina base typically wants the boat in by 17:00 the day before official handover.

Cosa fare

Last swim under the Cape Sounion temple

Refuel and clean the boat at Lavrion

Crew dinner at a Lavrion harbourside taverna

Souvenir-stop in Lavrion town

Consiglio per l'ormeggio

Lavrion Olympic Marina stern-to with lazy lines, €60-90/night. Refuel at the entrance fuel berth before mooring. Confirm handover slot 24h ahead.
