Located in the Aegean Sea, the Saronic Gulf islands are an island grouping situated close to the Greek mainland and known for their breathtaking landscapes, stunning beaches, and fascinating historical sites. Since the Saronic Gulf islands are in close proximity to the nation's capital, taking a boat tour from Athens is the ultimate Greek getaway! 

Your fun-filled boat tour to the Saronic Gulf islands begins at the Marina Delta Kallitheas, where you'll meet the experienced crew.
