Ilia is a 2022 Oceanis 46.1 sailboat based at Alimos Marina in Paleo Faliro, perfectly positioned for exploring the Aegean's most coveted waters. With five well-appointed cabins and ten berths, she accommodates groups of friends, extended families, or mixed parties seeking a week of effortless Mediterranean sailing. The boat combines modern comfort with genuine sailing credentials—her 57-horsepower engine and bow thruster make navigation intuitive, while the GPS chartplotter keeps you oriented as you drift between islands.

Life aboard Ilia balances ease with engagement. The saloon stays cool thanks to full air conditioning, while the galley's refrigeration means fresh provisions last the week. Three heads with electric toilets serve the cabin guests without fuss. On deck, the bimini and sprayhood create sheltered zones for morning coffee or evening aperitifs, and cushioned seating invites lingering conversations as the sun shifts across the water. Solar panels and a voltage converter mean your devices stay charged; the cockpit speakers set the soundtrack for anchorages in hidden coves.

A typical week unfolds between the Saronic and Argolic gulfs—close enough to Athens for a final night ashore, yet remote enough to feel genuinely removed. You might motor-sail to Hydra for its car-free charm, explore the stone villages of Spetses, or anchor off quieter islets where the water runs crystalline and the only sound is the occasional fishing boat. The bow thruster and autopilot handle the technical demands, freeing you to swim, read, or simply watch the light change across the limestone cliffs. Provisioning is straightforward from any of the small harbours along your route, where local tavernas serve grilled octopus and local wine as the sun descends behind the hills.

Whether you're seasoned sailors or newcomers discovering the Aegean's rhythm, Ilia delivers the essentials: capable sailing, genuine comfort, and the space to gather as a group. Picture your final evening anchored in a sheltered bay, the boat gently swinging on her mooring, everyone on deck as the stars emerge and the water turns to black glass.
