Perched on Halkidiki's eastern peninsula, Mount Athos is a Greek treasure that's strictly off limits to visitors. But you'll get a good look at the place with this full day boat trip. Cruise by the cliff-hugging monasteries of the world's only monastic republic before anchoring up for lunch onboard. Stopping at a nearby beach, there'll be time for swimming and sunbathing, too.
