This is a more comfortable route, providing ample time for relaxation in the sandy beaches of the peninsula, as well as a chance to visit the many small islands of the region. The relative seclusion of the bay provides a swift sail through the area, under the usual soft breeze of 4-5 beauford. One of the days of the trip can be spent visiting Mount Athos, to observe the ancient orthodox monasteries, that stand watch over the bay for millennia. This last part covers over 40 miles of breathtaking view.
