* Athlete diet available: high protein, low fats & carbs.

The Portuguese have a saying: "Umbilical", referring to the sea and our connection to it. In fact, united by the sea, our roots are Portuguese.
Life brought our group to Greece, the cradle of thought and philosophy, and it was a "Happy Encounter."
The lagoons we leave behind here are filled with joy and longing. We also leave behind two friends, the wonderful crew members, Julie and Andreas
Thank you for everything. See you one day!
We want to thank George and Petros for all you did for our group. It was the most incredible trip and experience. We are now friends for life. You both are unforgettable. Thank you for the best holiday ever!
– Regina and Marco
Message for the Host
Στον George και τον Petros: Σε ευχαριστώ για όλα!
This past week was the trip of a lifetime. From the shores of Aegina to the "South Hampton of the Saronics" in Hydra, our intrepid crew made us feel warm and welcome everywhere we went.
We experienced ancient history, natural wonders, lost a drone, and ate like royalty. Our crew was the icing on a delightful vacation cake, and we cannot wait to come back in the future!
– Josh, Donna, Max, Nate & Carla
Thank you so much to , Sam, and Savvas for an unbelievable week!
We have felt like we were at home. Everything was so easy with them, making us feel so comfortable, and we had such a wonderful holiday.
We have come for the third year in a row, and hopefully, we will repeat this experience for many years to come!
Thanks to the best crew in Greece!
We spent the loveliest time during this summer! Captain Sam took us to many places and restaurants, and we had the chance to experience Greek culture firsthand.
Two events contributed to making our trip especially beautiful and entertaining: the full moon and the two birthdays we celebrated.
We are going to miss so many memories, especially the breakfasts in Dinos! He also surprised us by preparing cakes for the birthday parties.
– Al Herbish Family
Had a great week sailing. George was an amazing skipper and Peter’s food was delicious 😋. Would definitely recommend , nothing was too much to ask and they made our week a lot of fun! Amazing.
George and Peter were brilliant and very welcoming. Peter cooked delicious food every meal. George was a great Captain and drove smoothly. 👍🏻👌🏼
George and Peter looked after the eight of us very well and took us to some amazing places including “Paradise”. George was a very knowledgeable skipper and knew the island’s well and Peter’s food was delicious. How he cooked some of his amazing dishes in the space he had was absolutely mind blowing. Would highly recommend a week on “Spring” with these two in charge.
We have just had an amazing week on board Spring! George and Petros looked after us all very well and took us to some amazing places in the Cyclades. Highlights were visiting “Paradise”, eating octopus on board and partying until sunrise (for some!). We all had a wonderful holiday!
– The Read Family & Extras, UK
We have just returned from an unforgettable week on board, and everything was perfect! The yacht was in excellent condition and very comfortable. The professionalism, service and prompt response of the crew made us feel safe and completely relaxed throughout the trip.
The overall experience exceeded our expectations, and we would definitely choose the same company again for our next sailing holiday.
Stamatis and Giannis, our trip was such a wonderful experience thanks to you. Thank you so much — it was truly a pleasure meeting you and sailing with you!
This is the second time we've had Captain Sevastos and his crew sail with us on the Spring boat. Each year is a more perfect adventure for me and my whole family. The service has always been impeccable, and the route chosen was perfect, always keeping our well-being and the interests of my entire family in mind. As always, it's a pleasure to work with such excellent professionals, whom we now consider family.
We chartered the Spring with Captain George and Chef Petros. Unfortunately I can only give them and the yacht just 5 Stars. I would give more if I could. Everything was perfect. Captain George never failed to get us to a great port or perfect anchorage. He looked after us constantly and always had a watchful eye on my 2 young grandsons. In addition to the grandsons there were 8 adults, plus the crew on this spacious catermaran. We never felt cramped at all. We came for the experience but ultimately all we could think about was the next meal that Chef Petros would prepare. We have not yet had a meal in Athens or ashore on our cruise that came close to his amazing meals. 5 stars alone for his breakfasts, lunches and dinners! A truly unbelievable week sailing the Saronic.
What an incredible week! We had the best crew as we explored the beautiful islands of Greece. George our captain was enjoyable, knowledgeable and communicated well with us as he helped us plan our route. We were in good hands. Chef Savvas brought the experience to the next level with his meals! The food was absolutely amazing! I can’t wait to do this again someday!
The whole week was absolutely incredible! Highlights were cliff jumping at Milos, dinner on the cliff in Syros, caves, turtles… and the list goes on! We were also blessed with the best crew! George helped us plan a fun itinerary and got us there safely every time. Savvas prepared fantastic meals that everyone loved! None of us wanted to leave!
– The Bouvards, Orlando, FL
Top notch ArgoSaronic sailing experience on Spring with Exadas. Nikos and Harry are very thorough and professional. We have done 7 charters in total and this was our best experience so far. Stamatis is a truly fantastic Captain and we felt safe at all times. Chef Savvas has world class culinary skills. Our crew was engaging and local knowledge was so helpful as they knew the owners some of the most perfect tavernas in each town. We got red carpet treatment everywhere. So happy to have had the chance to make what we consider two new friends. SAS efcharisto
Thank you for an unforgettable journey through the Saronic Islands! We were well cared for from the moment we stepped on Spring. Your warmth and professionalism were amazing, and the food was fantastic! We are leaving Greece with wonderful memories and already dreaming of our next trip. Thank you for everything!
– The Hamed Family
I have nothing but praise for our experience. We booked Spring, a 51 ft Catamaran, with the intention of doing the Sardonic/Cyclades itinerary.
We met our Captain George Sevastos and our Chef Vasilis at 3 on Saturday at the Marina in Athens. The boat was perfect with 6 cabins and 4 heads. There were 7 of us (2 couples). The boat looked brand new and everything was impeccably clean. There was plenty of room for us and spare cabins for our luggage and ample room to each go somewhere on our own if we needed a little alone time.
The itinerary we selected we were told by Captain George was not feasible so we had to change our plans. We explained how much sailing and time by motor we were willing to do and discussed the islands we thought we would enjoy the most. It was early October so most islands start closing up. George was VERY PATIENT WITH US as we discussed possibilities and eventually settled on doing the Cyclades that were further away and would require more travel between stops.
George was fantastic! He shared his love of the country and favorite ports and explained the winds, how the islands came to be and knew where to get a good meal. He was also an amazing photographer!
Our Chef shared his love of cooking and Greek cuisine with us and was up early daily preparing breakfast and once done starting up on lunch. The meals were delicious and the sweet treats fabulous! (Not easy cooking in a small galley and being bounced around.)
There was never a lack of food and the abundance was insane! (My only complaint would be it was too much but we did say we enjoyed large meals so that was probably our mistake 😊).
The places we stopped at were incredible and George made sure to always ask if we would like to make stops at places maybe we had not planned on but he thought we would enjoy.
At no point in time on the trip did we feel George and “Billy” were in our way or was it awkward. They did their jobs and were super curious and respectful. They made sure we did not lift a finger and catered to our every need making us feel certainly on vacation & safe on the open waters. An evening out with them in Poros for dinner was a great deal of fun.
All in all it was a fabulous trip that won’t be soon forgotten for 7 friends from University sharing their 60th birthday together.

The Portuguese have a saying: "Umbilical", referring to the sea and our connection to it. In fact, united by the sea, our roots are Portuguese.
Life brought our group to Greece, the cradle of thought and philosophy, and it was a "Happy Encounter."
The lagoons we leave behind here are filled with joy and longing. We also leave behind two friends, the wonderful crew members, Julie and Andreas
Thank you for everything. See you one day!
We want to thank George and Petros for all you did for our group. It was the most incredible trip and experience. We are now friends for life. You both are unforgettable. Thank you for the best holiday ever!

Message for the Host
Στον George και τον Petros: Σε ευχαριστώ για όλα!
This past week was the trip of a lifetime. From the shores of Aegina to the "South Hampton of the Saronics" in Hydra, our intrepid crew made us feel warm and welcome everywhere we went.
We experienced ancient history, natural wonders, lost a drone, and ate like royalty. Our crew was the icing on a delightful vacation cake, and we cannot wait to come back in the future!

Thank you so much to , Sam, and Savvas for an unbelievable week!
We have felt like we were at home. Everything was so easy with them, making us feel so comfortable, and we had such a wonderful holiday.
We have come for the third year in a row, and hopefully, we will repeat this experience for many years to come!
Thanks to the best crew in Greece!
We spent the loveliest time during this summer! Captain Sam took us to many places and restaurants, and we had the chance to experience Greek culture firsthand.
Two events contributed to making our trip especially beautiful and entertaining: the full moon and the two birthdays we celebrated.
We are going to miss so many memories, especially the breakfasts in Dinos! He also surprised us by preparing cakes for the birthday parties.

Had a great week sailing. George was an amazing skipper and Peter’s food was delicious 😋. Would definitely recommend , nothing was too much to ask and they made our week a lot of fun! Amazing.
George and Peter were brilliant and very welcoming. Peter cooked delicious food every meal. George was a great Captain and drove smoothly. 👍🏻👌🏼
George and Peter looked after the eight of us very well and took us to some amazing places including “Paradise”. George was a very knowledgeable skipper and knew the island’s well and Peter’s food was delicious. How he cooked some of his amazing dishes in the space he had was absolutely mind blowing. Would highly recommend a week on “Spring” with these two in charge.
We have just had an amazing week on board Spring! George and Petros looked after us all very well and took us to some amazing places in the Cyclades. Highlights were visiting “Paradise”, eating octopus on board and partying until sunrise (for some!). We all had a wonderful holiday!

We have just returned from an unforgettable week on board, and everything was perfect! The yacht was in excellent condition and very comfortable. The professionalism, service and prompt response of the crew made us feel safe and completely relaxed throughout the trip.
The overall experience exceeded our expectations, and we would definitely choose the same company again for our next sailing holiday.
Stamatis and Giannis, our trip was such a wonderful experience thanks to you. Thank you so much — it was truly a pleasure meeting you and sailing with you!
This is the second time we've had Captain Sevastos and his crew sail with us on the Spring boat. Each year is a more perfect adventure for me and my whole family. The service has always been impeccable, and the route chosen was perfect, always keeping our well-being and the interests of my entire family in mind. As always, it's a pleasure to work with such excellent professionals, whom we now consider family.
We chartered the Spring with Captain George and Chef Petros. Unfortunately I can only give them and the yacht just 5 Stars. I would give more if I could. Everything was perfect. Captain George never failed to get us to a great port or perfect anchorage. He looked after us constantly and always had a watchful eye on my 2 young grandsons. In addition to the grandsons there were 8 adults, plus the crew on this spacious catermaran. We never felt cramped at all. We came for the experience but ultimately all we could think about was the next meal that Chef Petros would prepare. We have not yet had a meal in Athens or ashore on our cruise that came close to his amazing meals. 5 stars alone for his breakfasts, lunches and dinners! A truly unbelievable week sailing the Saronic.
What an incredible week! We had the best crew as we explored the beautiful islands of Greece. George our captain was enjoyable, knowledgeable and communicated well with us as he helped us plan our route. We were in good hands. Chef Savvas brought the experience to the next level with his meals! The food was absolutely amazing! I can’t wait to do this again someday!
The whole week was absolutely incredible! Highlights were cliff jumping at Milos, dinner on the cliff in Syros, caves, turtles… and the list goes on! We were also blessed with the best crew! George helped us plan a fun itinerary and got us there safely every time. Savvas prepared fantastic meals that everyone loved! None of us wanted to leave!

Top notch ArgoSaronic sailing experience on Spring with Exadas. Nikos and Harry are very thorough and professional. We have done 7 charters in total and this was our best experience so far. Stamatis is a truly fantastic Captain and we felt safe at all times. Chef Savvas has world class culinary skills. Our crew was engaging and local knowledge was so helpful as they knew the owners some of the most perfect tavernas in each town. We got red carpet treatment everywhere. So happy to have had the chance to make what we consider two new friends. SAS efcharisto
Thank you for an unforgettable journey through the Saronic Islands! We were well cared for from the moment we stepped on Spring. Your warmth and professionalism were amazing, and the food was fantastic! We are leaving Greece with wonderful memories and already dreaming of our next trip. Thank you for everything!

I have nothing but praise for our experience. We booked Spring, a 51 ft Catamaran, with the intention of doing the Sardonic/Cyclades itinerary.
We met our Captain George Sevastos and our Chef Vasilis at 3 on Saturday at the Marina in Athens. The boat was perfect with 6 cabins and 4 heads. There were 7 of us (2 couples). The boat looked brand new and everything was impeccably clean. There was plenty of room for us and spare cabins for our luggage and ample room to each go somewhere on our own if we needed a little alone time.
The itinerary we selected we were told by Captain George was not feasible so we had to change our plans. We explained how much sailing and time by motor we were willing to do and discussed the islands we thought we would enjoy the most. It was early October so most islands start closing up. George was VERY PATIENT WITH US as we discussed possibilities and eventually settled on doing the Cyclades that were further away and would require more travel between stops.
George was fantastic! He shared his love of the country and favorite ports and explained the winds, how the islands came to be and knew where to get a good meal. He was also an amazing photographer!
Our Chef shared his love of cooking and Greek cuisine with us and was up early daily preparing breakfast and once done starting up on lunch. The meals were delicious and the sweet treats fabulous! (Not easy cooking in a small galley and being bounced around.)
There was never a lack of food and the abundance was insane! (My only complaint would be it was too much but we did say we enjoyed large meals so that was probably our mistake 😊).
The places we stopped at were incredible and George made sure to always ask if we would like to make stops at places maybe we had not planned on but he thought we would enjoy.
At no point in time on the trip did we feel George and “Billy” were in our way or was it awkward. They did their jobs and were super curious and respectful. They made sure we did not lift a finger and catered to our every need making us feel certainly on vacation & safe on the open waters. An evening out with them in Poros for dinner was a great deal of fun.
All in all it was a fabulous trip that won’t be soon forgotten for 7 friends from University sharing their 60th birthday together.
