SUMMER 2024 ALL CRUISES ARE ROMANTIC – THIS ONE ESPECIALLY SO
Few things in the world of travel are more romantic than hoisting sail and venturing out into the wild blue yonder on Homer’s legendary ‘wine dark’ Aegean sea. In Greece it’s been this way since the dawn of time – albeit the creature comforts you find on board these days are rather more superior and luxurious.
There’s something rather lovely about a small vessel. Well, there has to be as with no more than 4 cabins and 8 people on board (plus the skipper and host) you need to be fond of each other. This stunning ‘Big Cat’, Satyam Melody, is equally as wonderful and relaxed for honeymooners, a three-generation family, or a group of good friends. Romance, affection, fondness – what’s not to love?
CRUISE IN THE WAKE OF ROMANCE
Our cruise starts in Athens, named for Athena the Greek Goddess of Wisdom – so it’s a smart sort of place to kick-off from. The itinerary encompasses the Saronic Gulf, a stretch of beautiful water lying between the Attica and Argolis Peninsulas. En route we hop between the islands of Hydra, Spetses and Aegina and also call into Epidaurus, Poros and Ermioni on the Peloponnese mainland. These are places Odysseus would have called at, on his way home from the Trojan wars, in one of the most legendary love stories of all time – his 10 year journey back to find his wife Penelope.
BEST WISHES FOR VALENTINE’S DAY ET AL
Every day in Greece is someone’s ‘Name Day’ and, unsurprisingly, February 14th is the name day of everybody called Valentine or Valentina. But today is also a moveable feast of celebrations – in other places around the world it’s National Library Lover’s Day, National Ferris Wheel Day, Pet Theft Awareness Day, and even National Cream-Filled Chocolate’s Day.
Somewhat rather more appropriately, it’s also National Flirting Week. So here’s a rose for you!
