Combine Sailing and Underwater Activities

Combine Sailing and Underwater Activities

With a sailing yacht, you can visit remote sea areas in Halkidiki or Sporades & discover the magic of the sea world whether you like snorkeling or scuba diving.

Combine Sailing and Underwater Activities

What makes the combination of sailing and underwater activities so luring is that you can enjoy the marvel of the sea from two different angles: over and under the water. Sailing tours are for everyone.

Those who prefer calm activities and relaxation won’t trade idling under the sun or just diving, but the most adventurous ones would love snorkeling and scuba diving.

Time to take sailing to a different dimension

Sailing in Greece is part of the summer holiday fun. When you charter a yacht at Baba Sails, you choose if you want to sail in Halkidiki or extend your trip all the way to Sporades. You may wonder why sailing and underwater activities are such a good combination! That’s elementary. Isolated bay areas are the best snorkeling and scuba diving spots and often accessible only by boats.

Not that you cannot gear up with a mask and snorkel at the popular beaches in Halkidiki, but busy beaches create tides that might make the waters blur while the underwater life is more exotic in remote areas.

Snorkeling vs Scuba Diving

Simply put, scuba diving is for the few. Snorkeling is for everyone who swims. In either case, your underwater activity becomes safe when you dive from a sailing boat.

Passing boats cannot always spot snorkelers but if you are close to the sailing yacht, you will feel somehow protected. Although there are hardly any shark attacks in Greece, jellyfish or a medical problem might urge you to return to the boat and that will be a breath away.

Scuba diving enthusiasts will love the undersea world in Halkidiki, Alonnisos, Skiathos, and Skopelos. This is one of the best ways to observe the hidden beauty of nature from a different dimension while knowing that a cool refreshment awaits on the sailing boat.
