Today, transfer to the pier where we board Windstar Cruises’ magnificent Wind Surf and begin our journey through the Mediterranean. Wind Surf is one of the world’s largest sailing yachts, combining the romance and elegance of traditional sailing with the comfort and amenities of a modern cruise ship. Carrying just over 300 guests, the yacht offers a relaxed and intimate atmosphere, spacious accommodations, inviting lounges, several dining options and expansive outdoor decks from which to enjoy the spectacular Mediterranean scenery. With her impressive masts and billowing sails, Wind Surf provides a wonderfully different way to cruise, visiting beautiful islands, historic ports and smaller destinations that larger ships often cannot access.

Return to Greece today as we arrive at the peaceful island of Patmos, a destination known for both its natural beauty and its important religious history.

Visitors can explore the Cave of the Apocalypse and the historic Monastery of St. John, dramatically situated above the island. There will also be time to enjoy Patmos itself, with its traditional villages, quiet beaches, scenic coastline and relaxed island atmosphere.

Day 09: October 11, 2027: Santorini, Greece from 8am until 9pm
Few arrivals in the Mediterranean are as spectacular as sailing into Santorini. Created by an enormous ancient volcanic eruption, the island rises dramatically from the Aegean Sea, with brilliant white villages perched high along the cliffs overlooking the caldera. Explore the beautiful village of Oia, famous for its whitewashed houses, blue-domed churches and magnificent views, or spend time in Fira, the island’s lively capital. Santorini also has a fascinating agricultural story. Its volcanic soils and dry climate have resulted in unique farming techniques, particularly in the production of grapes and wine. The island is especially known for its Assyrtiko grapes, along with tomatoes, capers and other crops adapted to the challenging environment. [B/L/D onboard cruise]

Day 10: October 12, 2027: Monemvasia, Greece from 9am until 6pm
Today we discover one of Greece’s lesser-known treasures, Monemvasia, a spectacular medieval fortress town located on a massive rock rising from the sea off the Peloponnese coast. Connected to the mainland by a narrow causeway, the historic settlement is hidden behind ancient stone walls. Enter through the old gateway and explore a maze of narrow cobblestone lanes lined with Byzantine churches, stone houses, small shops and inviting cafés. The combination of medieval architecture, dramatic coastal scenery and a quieter atmosphere makes Monemvasia a wonderful contrast to Greece’s more famous islands. [B/L/D onboard cruise]

Rising dramatically above the town is Palamidi Fortress, offering impressive views across the surrounding countryside and Argolic Gulf. The region surrounding Nafplio is also one of Greece’s important agricultural areas, particularly known for citrus fruit, olives and vineyards.
