About Bareboat Sailing Yacht Oceanis 48
The Beneteau Oceanis 48 is purpose-built for groups and families seeking independent sailing in Greece. Her generous beam and saloon flood the interior with natural light, whilst the accessible companionway (angled at 45 degrees) welcomes sailors of all ages and experience. Twin helm stations let you monitor both sides of the sail, keeping all controls and electronics within the helmsman's reach for effortless handling.
Below deck, five double cabins, one bunk, and a single berth accommodate up to eleven guests comfortably. Three heads service the accommodation, whilst the horseshoe-shaped galley functions as both galley and social hub. The onboard watermaker eliminates fresh-water constraints, and the large transom serves as a bathing and diving platform. Teak decking, lazy jack, bow thruster, bimini, sprayhood, and GPS plotter come standard.

The Charter Experience
Athens serves as the ideal departure point for bareboat sailing in the Aegean. The Greek islands beckon with sheltered anchorages and waterfront tavernas offering local, home-cooked fare. Mornings arrive calm and clear, perfect for leisurely swimming and breakfast before afternoon winds rise and fill your sails. Island-hopping from Athens reveals some of the world's most celebrated sailing grounds. Kayaks, paddle boards, and fishing equipment are available to enhance your weeks offshore. Note that bareboat charters require a valid skipper's licence; alternatively, engage a professional skipper to occupy one guest cabin (their meals included in your cost).
Suggested Itinerary
A fourteen-day Aegean itinerary from Athens typically explores the Saronic islands, the Sporades, and the northern reaches of the Cyclades. Sheltered anchorages near Poros, Hydra, Skiathos, and Naxos break the passage, each offering secure holding and authentic island dining. Steady afternoon winds and morning calm create an ideal rhythm for families and groups new to extended sailing.
