Discover the Saronic Gulf, learn to sail in Greece
Come aboard for an amazing Greek Sailing Adventure! Do you enjoy a challenge and love to experience the world’s cultures, foods, and natural beauty? Join NISI’s crew for a sailing adventure around the Greek Saronic Gulf. We’ll sail for a few hours each day from one island to another, stopping to swim in pristine coves. You’ll experience Greece’s culture, cuisine, history, and nature by land. You’ll also be an active part of the crew. Captain Alex will coach as much or as little as you’d like.
After each day of sailing, you’ll have time to explore on land. Your skipper and crew will point out historical sites, hikes, bike rentals, swimming spots, shops, and restaurants. Click the ‘Itinerary’ tab above for more details.
We’ll begin and end our journey on Aegina Island. Aegina Town is lively and charming. It’s also the closest island to Athens International Airport. Upon booking, we’ll provide you with detailed instructions for getting to the boat. We’ll help make your transit as easy as possible.
Come aboard NISI for an active adventure and forget the outside world, if only for a week. Sail, swim, and eat your way through Greece’s Saronic Gulf Islands.

We had such a great time with Natalie and Alex (oh and of course, Kenickie!). I had no sailing experience before this trip but felt like I learned a lot with Alex, our very patient skipper. It was a great balance between feeling engaged with the work of sailing and being able to relax and take in the beauty and culture of Greece. I was originally worried I might get “sea-fatigue” but I felt like we spent just the right amount of time sailing each day, and then had plenty of time on land to explore the little Greek towns and eat plenty of their delicious (and cheap!) food. I would highly recommend Nisi Sailing to any of my friends.

My sailing experience with Nisi was incredible and certainly one of the best travel experiences I ever had! Alex & Natalie are fantastic and they prepared for our group a fantastic week full of sailing fun, adventures, exotic places, breathtaking beaches, and visits to cute Greek small towns. Greek food is fantastic (and cheap!!). The boat is comfortable and I could rest and sleep super well. I never imagined that living in a boat for a week could be that much fun! I strongly recommend Nisi sailing to couples, families, and groups of friends, from various ages. You will have the best vacation of a lifetime!!

Alex is not only an amazing captain. He’s extremely knowledgable about Greece and all of the beautiful ports to visit. And he knows where the perfect coves are to drop anchor and enjoy a swim or lunch. Alex is fun, entertaining and someone you want to have with you on a trip on a yacht. If you’re looking for a great captain who’s fun and will bring you to beautiful picturesque Greek sailing destinations then Alex is your guy.

Contacté por la web para pedir información y la respuesta fue muy rápida y la comunicación muy fluída. Quería pasar una semana navegando con mis hijos de 9 y 6 años a la vez que refrescaba mis oxidados conocimientos de patrón de barco.
El resultado no ha podido ser más satisfactorio. Nos lo hemos pasado muy bien. Mis hijos han podido disfrutar de una experiencia inolvidable y yo he aprendido muchísimo supervisado por Alex y Nathaly.
Alex conoce a la perfección el Golfo Sarónico y consigue que la navegación sea muy relajada haciendo participar a los niños en todas las maniobras. Y encima los niños han practicado inglés con Nathaly!!!
Espero poder volver el próximo año!!!

We spent two weeks with Alex learning to sail in the Saronic Gulf in Greece. Each morning we had a briefing and set goals so our day was well balanced between sailing and exploring. Alex gladly shares his expertise, ideas and techniques. We learned a lot from the great quality of teaching and demonstrations succeeding in getting a Day Skipper License.
Thank you Alex for the most wonderful vacation.
Thank you Nisi Sailing.
We’ll see you next year!
I went to a “all lady sailing” and enjoyed it very much. My companions were grate and the skipper war very knowledgeable and professional. The boat is very cozy and comfortable. The islands in the Saronic Gulf are absolutely beautiful.
It was a really wonderful holiday! If would be very happy to join a “all lady sailing” again.
