★★★★★★★★★★4.3 · 592 reviews · 5 hours · from $35Our pick

Glass-bottom cruise past 6 Mount Athos monasteries, plus 1.5 hours on Ammouliani for swimming and lunch by the water.

“Mouth Athos was great, therefore i do recomend to take the 3 hour trip if it's available, great thing to see but Ammouliani island was a waste of time because of poor restaurants on the beach, the first one we went to didn't have enough menu's for all the people coming off the boat walking in , we wasted half hour there and decided to leave, the other one next to the beach didn't have anything they offer in the menu , only sandwitches , so we actually wasted the whole time running around looking for food instead of enjoying the beach and believe me, after a 3 hour boat…”

Info kommt 3sprachig aus dem Lautsprecher. aber für 25 Euro 3,5 h mit dem Boot is fair. Oben ist beschattet, alles gut. An Land geht man nie,1 Kuttenträger kommt im Kloster Dorf an Board und verkauft Selbst erstelltes.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 51 reviews · 5 hours · from $69

5-hour small-group sail from Chrousso Marina through Sithonia and Kassandra coves, with snorkeling at Kelyfos and Kamenos.

“Nice sailboat with very friendly owner/captain. Our 10 o’clock trip was cancelled and we were sent to a nearby port for an 11 o’clock one. Said no food, but owner/captain provided one sandwich and one small glass of wine. Captain was entertaining and wanted to please. Problem was the trip was to motor everywhere due to 5 hours being too short to cover the distance. The wind and weather was great for sailing and we convinced him to at least sail 15 minutes, but had to skip the beach swim to do it. Then when he sailed he only put up the jib and not the main sail so not…”
