This experience, in a nutshell




Looking for an active rest this summer? There is no better plan than to join our sailing holidays! All routes are individually prepared for each crew, depending on the weather conditions, your preferences and mood. Your safety and comfort are our priority!

Round cruises from Naxos are definitely our favorites! After 15 years of sailing in Greece we prepared for you the best possible sailing route in Greece.
Starting and ending in Naxos - in the heart of Cyclades, enables us to not waste time on long sailing from Athens and exploring amazing Cyclades from the first moment of your sailing holiday!

Small Cyclades are the pearl of this area - far less touristic and commercial than other islands. Crystal clear blue water (the most beautiful we saw in Greece), desert islands, small villages with our favorite tavernas on the hill, friendly local people, lots of great food and wine! Among others on our way beautiful Iraklia which is empty even in the middle of the season, Kufonissi with its amazing caves and blue water, Schinoussa - truly local and greek small village, beautiful yet unspoiled Amorgos with breathtaking monastery carved in the rock, where the monks are waiting for you to climb the stairs with delicious psimeni raki and loukoumi :)

From there we may go to Ios - more busy but worth visiting because of its old town which is said to be the most scenic Chora in Cyclades. On the way back we have Paros - one of the most beautiful islands in the Cyclades with its quieter sister Antiparos, where if you are lucky enough we may meet Tom Hanks :)

You have a chance to visit and feel the real Greece with its unspoiled local atmosphere. We love it so much that we have sailed there each year for more than 15 years now :) Relaxed sailing, lots of time to explore Greece both in the sea and on land.

This is how our typical sailing day looks like:

- We wake up, eat breakfast, have some coffee in the village or a little walk and we sail away.
- We sail for a few hours and then we reach some beautifull bay with a lovely and deserted beach. Then we have time for snorkelling, swimming, sunbathing, exploring the island / bay, reading books and so on.
Together we prepare some lunch (greek salad seems to be perfect for the hot day!), have some rest - maybe a little nap won't hurt :) and we sail away.
- We sail for a few hours - for volunteers chance to learn how to steer, tie a knot and other sailing activities :) For others time to relax and sunbathe on deck.
- We reach a new island, moor in a lovely small village and explore the new place.
In the evening we go to the Taverna to try some awesome local food as well as the delicious greek wine, dance some Zorba, listen to live music and relax! "No hurry" - that's our main theme :) On Amorgos we also have a possibility to explore the islands by car/scooter/quad.
Nothing is better on a hot summer’s day than being on the water, swimming in crystal clear sea and feeling the wind in your hair.

Bringing your loved ones on board and experiencing all this together is an adventure of a lifetime. Unplug yourself and spend some quality time together.
Be close to nature and feel the freedom that only sailing can offer you :)

We know what we do! We have been organizing sailing cruises for more than 15 years now, having thousands of happy crews on our board.
If you have questions, doubts or just wish to talk with us - don't hesitate!
We will be more than happy to help you and provide all the necessary info!

During all our cruises Aga will be your guide. She takes care of our crews and helps solve all the issues that might come up. With Aga you will know where to do the shopping, where is the best Moussaka, fish or calamari and which place serves the best coffee. She will tell you what each island has to offer, as well as indicate the best view points and local spots :)

ROUTE 2: small Cyclades far away from tourist crowds

Often chosen during pandemic times. Round cruises from Naxos are definitely our favorites! Starting and ending in Naxos - in the heart of Cyclades, enables us to explore amazing Cyclades from the first moment of the sailing holiday! Small Cyclades are the pearl of this area. We visit stunning Cycladic islands offering beautiful desert bays with crystal clear water perfect for swimming/snorkelling (colorful fish, caves and even the IIWW plane wreck), characteristic local villages, yet less known and far less touristy than e.g. Mykonos or Santorini. On the way Iraklia (which is empty even in the middle of the season), Kufonissi (with its Caribbean-like blue water), Schinoussa (truly local and greek small village) and beautiful Amorgos - with a breathtaking monastery carved in the rock (where the monks are waiting for you to climb the stairs with delicious psimeni raki and loukoumi), beautiful beach and swimming spot famous from the Le grand Bleu film and typical Cycladic Chora, a town in the mountains. If guests are up for more sailing miles, we may visit Ios and Folegandros offering one of the most scenic old towns (Choras) in Cyclades. On the way back Paros with its quieter sister Antiparos where our guests have a chance to visit and feel the real Greece with its local atmosphere. Near Antiparos, the islands of Despotico and Strongili, known for unspoilt nature and protected species under nature 2000.

Big and luxurious 60ft catamaran in Cyclades - best local experience with hostess

The boat and the scenery are great, and Aga’s food is simply the most amazing fresh food I’ve ever eaten in my whole life. I’m not giving five stars for two reasons: first, the advertisement mentioned air conditioning, but most nights I felt really hot, as the AC was only turned on for one hour on one night during my trip. Second, at times it felt a bit like a military camp, with the captain being quite impolite with no excuse.

What a fabulous week! As a family of 4, we thoroughly enjoyed our time. Aga and Greg work exceptionally hard to deliver a unique and truly local experience. And the food--well beyond our expectations! Thank you both for sharing your boat, your talents, your knowledge and your hearts with us. Beyond 5 stars!

The minute we stepped on the boat we felt good and totally disconnected to real life. It was one of the kind experience with amazing people. Special thank you to the crew Tom and Aga who made us feel at home and took care of us. We are already missing Aga’s cooking !
