When it comes to Greece’s landmarks, Mount Athos is right up there with the Acropolis in Athens. Halkidiki’s easternmost peninsula, it’s the world’s one and only monastic republic, ruled over by the black-robed monks of its medieval monasteries. And such, access to it is restricted, with women even forbidden to set foot on its shores. All of which makes this cruise the best way to see it. Sit back and soak up the sun as your boat sails along the peninsula, giving you close-up views over the monasteries perched on its cliffs and wooded slopes. It’s a fascinating glimpse into the monks’ secret world. And make sure you snap photos of 6,500-foot Mount Athos. This huge mountain rises up from the peninsula’s southern tip. Afterwards, your boat will arrive at Ouranopoli, where you’ll have time for lunch before sailing home. There’s a Greek band on board to entertain you on the return leg, too.
