One week aboard the catamaran SoulMate. You live the sailing life, and we take you to the most beautiful places in Greece.
See dates & pricesThis isn't a cruise, and it isn't a hotel on water.
For one week you join the crew of SoulMate. You help with the lines when we anchor, take the helm on open water, cook dinner together in the galley, swim off the stern before breakfast, and keep the boat tidy, the way every real crew does.
Our part is to keep you safe, handle the seamanship, and take you to the most beautiful places in Greece: quiet bays with turquoise water, whitewashed island villages, harbour tavernas where the fish was caught that morning.
You go home with a tan, and with the feeling that you actually sailed Greece.
A captain who doubles as your local guide, and a deck hand who teaches you the ropes.
Skipper of SoulMate since 2018, with several sailing weeks every season in Greek waters. Tonda knows the anchorages, the winds, and the taverna owners, and plans each day around the weather and the group. He is also a personal coach.
"I help people sail in the right direction, at sea and in life."
Martial-arts trainer and mentor with 25+ years of experience. On board, Richard works the deck with you and shows you how everything works. If you want, he also leads an optional morning session on the bow: breathing, stretching, and waking up body and mind before the day's sail.
"For 25 years I've helped men and women bring body, mind and soul into harmony."
Swim in the bay, optional movement session on the bow, breakfast together on deck.
Raise anchor and sail 2–4 hours to the next island. Everyone gets time at the helm.
Anchor, snorkel, paddle, explore a village, or nap in the shade of the trampoline.
A harbour taverna or dinner cooked on board, then the stars over a quiet anchorage.
Both start and finish at Olympic Marina, Lavrion. The captain chooses the final route with the weather and the group.
Classic Greek islands with whitewashed villages, wild beaches, and real open-water sailing with a steady breeze.
Sheltered water, historic harbours, Hydra with no cars and only donkeys, and Venetian Nafplio. A gentler week, good if some of the group are new to sailing.
Stable, spacious and bright. A catamaran sails flat, so there is no heeling, little seasickness, and plenty of room to spread out on deck and on the trampoline.
Saturday to Saturday. Prices are per person, based on a group of 6 guests in 3 double cabins, each with its own bathroom.

SoulMate has two cosy single cabins in the bows, traditionally the skipper's cabins. They suit adventurous travellers. Each has its own hatch to the deck and a comfortable single berth, but no private bathroom: bow-cabin guests share a bathroom on board. That's why they sail at 30 % off. Prices for the 6 double-cabin guests stay the same.
Payment in EUR by international bank transfer (IBAN) or Revolut. We send payment details with the booking confirmation.
Must be valid at least 3 months beyond your return date. Its details are required for the official Greek crew list.
US citizens enter Greece visa-free (Schengen, up to 90 days). Check whether the new ETIAS travel authorisation applies to your trip date.
Soft bags only, no hard suitcases. Space on a boat is limited, and you'll live in shorts and swimwear anyway.
None needed. You only need to be able to swim and be happy to pitch in.
Fly into Athens (ATH). Lavrion is a 40-minute taxi ride along the coast.
The captain makes the final call on the route each day. Safety and comfort come first, and there is always a beautiful bay to wait in.
