Akeydor luxury rib boat, Marvel 9.30, starts engines and roams into the water. We launch our rib boat at the south of Athens for the weekend rib boat rental service to Tzia, a great nearby island ready to be explored! Weather condition received, wave state registered, and our big rib boat roams into the Aegean once again!
Tzia (or KEA) is an island nearby Attiki (very near to Sounio). It is only 16 miles from cape Sounion, making it very easily accessible by Akeydor’s big rib boats, and a perfect destination to explore its wonderful unspoilt beaches of Vroskopos in the South west, Pisses, Otzias in the north, and Spathi on the eastern side. We ride east, past the island of Makronisos, and then north east directly towards the entrance of Vourkari bay, the wonderful cosmopolitan bay full of tavernas and cafes, welcoming us at the majestic sunset on the Friday evening.
Vourkari at Tzia: A wonderful cosmopolitan bay full of sailing and motorboats, moored alongside in front of tavernas, cafes, and romantic seat ins to enjoy strolls and a great sunset.
We are there in just less than an hour!
We moored safely at Vourkari dockside, and we took strolls along the walking street choosing our tavern for the evening. At the far left of the bay, towards the small picturesque church, the view of the sunset and the bay is just wonderful, having you in full control of nature!
Swim at Vroskopos beach, a remote pebble beach with crystal clear waters. Next day lunch at Pisses or Koundouros and an easy next day return towards Sounio for another half day swim to charge our batteries for the week days! We cruised back home at 24 knots, past South Tzia, and Makronisos, to arrive at cape Sounio in about 40 mins only! A beautiful easy ride to Tzia and its majestic beaches!
Tips!
- You can combine a morning swim at Vroskopos, and lunch at Pisses or Koundouros.
- You can also enjoy a day swim at Vroskopos and an overnight stay at Vourkari, for dinner. Sunset at Vourkari is just amazing!
- Try the restaurant at the far left of the bay towards the church. It gives you an unparallel view of the sunset and the bay!
- Ask or get a small inflatable tender boat and browse around the bay around the sailing boats at the early evening. Amazing!
