About Bareboat Sailing Yacht Oceanis 51.1
The Oceanis 51.1 is a refined cruising platform from Beneteau, purpose-built for island-hopping across the Aegean. Her modern design prioritises both seaworthiness and comfort, with twin helm stations allowing clear sight lines to the sails and telltales, whilst all control lines and electronics remain within the helmsman's reach. The generous bathing platform and teak deck invite you to linger between passages.
Below deck, the saloon is genuinely spacious, opening onto a horseshoe galley where you can prepare meals whilst engaging with guests. The companionway incline is graduated for safe movement in any sea state. Five double cabins plus one single cabin sleep up to eleven in total, with three heads serving the accommodation. This is a yacht that performs as well as it accommodates.

The Charter Experience
Bareboat sailing from Athens grants access to the Cyclades, where protected anchorages and sheltered bays reward each day's sailing. Morning swims in crystalline water precede afternoon winds that build reliably; charted routes connect whitewashed villages, family-run tavernas serving local catch, and anchorages known only to those who have sailed these waters. The rhythm of Greek island life unfolds at a pace set by your own sails and schedule.
Suggested Itinerary
A 14-day itinerary from Athens can arc through the southern Cyclades, calling at Kea, Kythnos and Serifos before reaching the postcard islands of Paros, Naxos and Santorini, with detours into quiet anchorages known for their clarity and isolation. Return via Delos and Mykonos, or extend into the Sporades if winds allow.
