10:00

Skala

Start from the port and follow the waterfront, watching the boats and the architecture of the center; allow about 1–2 hours for a relaxed walk and breakfast or coffee. Skala is also the most practical base for planning the rest of the day and checking transportation options on site. The walk is free; coffee and breakfast can cost roughly €4–10.

If you arrive by ferry, check connections and schedules in advance on the operator’s official channels: the timetable provided is indicative.

12:30

Megalochori

Reach Megalochori on foot from Skala in about 20–30 minutes, along the road connecting the two centers, or take a local taxi if you prefer to avoid the walk. Set aside about 1–2 hours for the alleys, traditional houses, and views over the harbor; stop here for lunch, budgeting roughly €12–25 for a simple meal. Visiting the village is free; any food or drinks are extra.

Bring water and sun protection, especially if you walk the road during the hottest hours.

16:00

Chalikiada Beach

From Megalochori, head back toward Skala and continue on foot to the entrance of the Chalikiada trail: allow about 25–35 minutes in total for the transfer, depending on your starting point and pace. The descent to the beach is steep and uneven; once you arrive, allow 2–3 hours for swimming and relaxing, bringing water and anything else you need, as facilities may be limited.

Wear shoes with good grip and leave enough time to climb back up and return to Skala before the ferry. Check the official return times in advance.

10:00

For an informal lunch break, budget roughly €10–20 per person, depending on what you order and the venue.

Bring water and sunscreen: even on shaded paths, exposure can still change.

14:00

Dragonera Beach

Set aside the afternoon for swimming in the sheltered waters, admiring the rocky coastline, and relaxing; bring a snorkel mask and water shoes, as access to the sea can be rocky. Factor in a possible entrance fee or beach-service charge, typically €5–12, plus €3–8 for a drink or snack. Toward evening, head back to Skala with time to spare for the ferry: if the local services don’t match your schedule, consider a taxi.

Check the timetables for connections and the latest fares in advance on official websites or with local operators.

Bring water, sunscreen, and footwear suitable for any rocky stretches; check transport options in advance.

09:00

Magiza Beach

Dedicate about two hours to the beach, allowing time for swimming and taking in the rocky coastline: bring reef shoes if the seabed calls for them.

Have breakfast or a snack before you leave and bring water, as available services can vary.

Around 11:00–11:30, head to the boarding point agreed with the operator; leave extra time for the transfer and boarding.

12:30

Excursion to Moni Island

Join a boat trip from Agistri or, if the service isn’t available on your chosen date, arrange the transfer via Aegina in advance: departure port, duration, and return depend on the operator and the sea conditions. Set aside roughly 3–4 hours for the sailing and the stop on the island; on Moni you can swim and enjoy the scenery, bringing water, sunscreen, and everything you need. For the boat, expect around EUR 20–45 per person as an indicative estimate, and check itinerary, price, and availability directly with the operator.

10:00

Aegina Town (Port)

As a rough estimate, a passenger ticket for the Aegina–Agistri route can cost around €4–10 per trip; check schedules and fares on the operator’s official website.
