The catamaran slips out of Ornos at dawn or golden hour, the Aegean opening up like a cool, living map. Salt air pushes against the hull, the low islands of Delos and Rhenia rising from the horizon as cliffs and white rock shaped by wind and time. Onboard, conversation softens; people trade quiet looks as the boat eases into a sheltered cove and the sea dares you into its clarity.
