Charter a luxury boat in Athens with Arthaud Yachting

Rent a luxury yacht, a catamaran or a sailing yacht in athens.

With its Neo Tavernas, vibrant quaint districts, modern coffee shops and exquisite food culture, Europe’s oldest capital city, Athens, is a far cry from what it was 3400 years ago. Athens today is a cosmopolitan city overflowing with culture, food, art and history. Head into the Koukaki district, (Vogue’s ‘new cool neighborhood’) for brunch before exploring the galleries and museums nearby. Brace yourself for a strong cup of greek coffee before time traveling back in history as you step into the historic core and place your feet on the very ground that Socrates, Plato and Aristotle stood on. All of this set into a paradise of coastline with thousands of islands, beaches and deep blue waters to explore on your Athens luxury yacht charter.

Practical information to visit Athens

When to visit athens by yacht rental.

The best time to rent a yacht, catamaran, or sailing yacht in Athens is April to June or September to October. During these months there is sunshine without the unbearable temperatures in the height of summer and of course much less tourism.This will make your charter and site seeing in the area much more enjoyable. July and August tend to be very hot and overcrowded, there may also be strong northerly winds that can affect yachting mobility. Arthaud Yachting has a wide selection of yachts, sailing yachts and catamarans available to suit your needs.

Best cruising areas on the coast of Athens

With thousands of Greek islands at your disposal, there are endless options during your luxury yacht charter in Athens. Discover the fascinating Saronic Islands, situated in close proximity to Athens, these 7 islands offer incredible beaches and phenomenal history, stop by Aegina Island for a glass of local wine whilst tasting their famous pistachios, take a horse drawn carriage around the tranquil island of Spetses or simply spend the day exploring the private islets and coves of the Argosaronic Gulf.

Do not miss when traveling to Athens

The Acropolis is the heart of Athens and is renowned worldwide for its historical importance. This fortified limestone plateau houses multiple awe-inspiring monuments, including the famous Parthenon, the site where Greek philosophers would question the universe and where democracy and freedom of speech were born.

After visiting this incredible site head over to the Acropolis Museum to gain further perspective and insight into these amazing monuments. Once you’ve completed the tour of the museum head to one of the many hotels that have rooftop restaurants or bars that offer incredible views of the Acropolis for sunset. The ‘A for Athens’ bar overlooks the bustling streets of Monastiraki Square, with views of the Ancient Agora and The Acropolis in the distance.

Breathtaking dining experience in Athens

For a modern take on traditional Greek seafood head to Varoulko Seaside restaurant in Mikrolimano. Set on an oceanfront, it is the perfect place to enjoy some delicious fresh fish. We highly recommend ordering the Chef’s catch of the day and pairing with a light white wine. Perfect after a luxurious day on your chartered yacht.

Hytra Restaurant’s roots are embedded deep within the rich cultural heritage of Greek cuisine. Their modern take on traditional Greek flavors is truly magnificent. Everything on the menu is excellent which is why we recommend the Chef’s tasting menu with optional cocktail or wine pairing.

Both of these highly sought after gourmet restaurants have long waiting lists for reservations but with Arthaud Yachting’s private concierge service you will always have a table.

Athens best local dishes

While in Athens you’ll notice many fish ‘tavernas,’ the area is known for its mouth watering fresh fish dishes. Usually made with minimal ingredients the fish is the star of the dish. Add a squeeze of lemon and a dash of olive oil and pair with a dakos salad and a glass of white wine. The Varoulko Seaside restaurant is our favorite.

The traditional greek meze is a number of small plates similar to tapas. They often include homemade flatbreads, yogurt dip, olives, fried cheese, zucchini balls and small seafood bites such as steamed mussels or squid. It can be shared as a starter or had as a light snack. ‘To Kafeneio’ is known for their amazing meze dishes.

Baklava is a sweet Greek pastry that truly is a work of art. It consists of layers of ultra thin pastry with butter, chopped nuts and honey. Best served warm fresh out of the oven.

The local culture of Athens

While the Acropolis is a popular tourist spot during the day, it also houses an incredible amphitheater that comes alive at night. A perfect end to your day on your chartered yacht. The Herodeon is a Roman amphitheater that was built by Herodes Atticus for his Roman wife in 161 AD. In the evening it transforms into a music venue, with its amazing ancient acoustics and design. A night concert here is one of the best ways to experience the culture of Athens.

Take a wander through the Athens central market, Varvakeios Agora is on Athinas Street and has been active since 1886. With almost every greek ingredient you can imagine the locals come to do their food shopping here. There are some small restaurants and kiosks in the market where you can stop for a coffee and a pastry

Arthaud Yachting’s recommendation

Discover the Island of Hydra from the comfort of your luxury yacht, one of the most picturesque islands in all of Greece. The charming port offers a selection of sophisticated boutiques and many elegant bars, cafes and restaurants. Take some time to wander the back streets of the island before a delicious seafood lunch overlooking the marina. Circle round to the east side of the island to enjoy an afternoon swim in one of its many private coves, followed by a sunset to never forget.
