greece - athens When you think of Athens you think of a City overlooking a huge bay and a sea dotted with Islands. The bowl of the Aegean Sea is dotted with hundreds of islands with comparatively small distances between them. Navigation is by eye to the next Island. Using this method you can navigate one from one side of the Aegean to the other. Add to this a regular summer wind blowing steadily from the North and you have the ideal climate for the evolution of Sailing. For this reason, Sailing Craft developed relatively early in this part of the World. In this setting it would be surprising if the indigenous folklore and mythology were not concerned with the sea and ships. Homer wrote the first great epic of Sailors and Shipwrecks in the Odyssey. The saga of Jason and the Argonauts in pursuit of the Golden Fleece added another classic to bedtime reading. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, gentlemen on there Yachts cruised around the Mediterranean, often combining their sailing with shooting expeditions or amateur archaeology. In those days a Yacht meant a small Ship by today's standards. Some of the Yachts still survive and are available for Charter. Greece was relatively unknown to the Cruising Yachtsman. A few Yachts cruised for fun and occasionally took Charter Parties around the Islands. Today Greece is one of the World´s leading Yacht Charter Destinations.
