At the indicated time, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Ouranopoli and take you to the coast, where the boat will be waiting. We will start this journey along the peninsula of Mount Athos.

Once on board the boat, we'll weigh anchor to set course towards the limits of the monastery city, bounded on the west by Fragocastro and on the east by Arapis. It will take us approximately 10 minutes to reach this location.
