About Tailwind Yachting

Sailing holidays from Alimos Marina, Athens — the gateway to the Saronic Gulf and the Cyclades.

Tailwind Yachting offers private yacht charters on a fleet of monohull sailing yachts and catamarans, based at Alimos Marina in Athens. Whether you are a family, a crew of friends, or experienced sailors looking for a bareboat charter — with your own skipper or one of ours — we help you find the right yacht and the right route across the Greek seas.

Our digital advantage — everything online

Tailwind Yachting is the only charter company in Greece where everything is done electronically. This is our strongest asset — and it changes your whole experience.

Secure payments by link. You pay through a secure payment link and never hand your card details to us.
Online check-in and check-out, with a detailed summary sent to you.
A 360° virtual tour and a video of every part of the yacht — the entire check-in on video. You choose what you want to see, so you instantly find the solution to any problem on board.
Your own app, months before embarkation. You see every space and everything on board, so you already know your yacht before you arrive.
No paperwork, no queues at the base. Because the documents, payments, crew list and check-in are all done online in advance, everything at the office is extremely fast — you simply collect the yacht and set sail. This is the big benefit for you: no time lost on formalities.
Full transparency on damage — photos through the app from the moment the yacht is handed over.
Service and support throughout the week of your charter.

Yacht charter experience since 2018

We have been chartering yachts from Athens since 2018. Over the years we have built a fleet of well-maintained sailing yachts and catamarans and a base team that takes care of everything, from the first enquiry to check-out, so your week on the water is simple and carefree.

Our fleet

Our fleet is a mix of monohull sailing yachts and catamarans, chosen for comfort, safety and easy handling in the Greek seas:

Bali 4.2: Infinity
Bali 4.6: Star Velvet
Lagoon 42: Bob
Lagoon 46: Perla
Bavaria C42: Kalispera and Valesia
Beneteau Oceanis 46.1: Bar Bar
Jeanneau 54: Maria 2
Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 449: Maria 1

On a skippered charter, the skipper (and hostess, if booked) counts towards the maximum number of people on board. For a side-by-side comparison of prices, cabins and capacity, see Compare our fleet →

Skippered and bareboat charters from Athens

All our yachts can be chartered bareboat by qualified crews, or with a professional skipper on request. For bareboat charters the Greek Authorities require at least one valid sailing licence and one experienced co-skipper on board; we review your certification before the charter and confirm that you are good to go. If no one in your crew holds the required qualifications, we provide an experienced skipper who handles the yacht for you — you simply choose where to sail.

Sailing the Saronic Gulf and the Cyclades

From Alimos Marina you can be at anchor in a quiet Saronic bay within hours. The Saronic Gulf — Aegina, Poros, Hydra and Spetses — is ideal for a relaxed week with short, sheltered hops, while the Cyclades offer open-water sailing and iconic island harbours for those with more time and experience. See our destination guides for itineraries and sailing notes.
