This experience, in a nutshell

Climb aboard and let the wind guide you through the brightest wonders of the Mediterranean.

You will sail between dream islands, away from the tourist circuits, following the routes preferred by those who really know the sea: your skipper will be able to take you to hidden coves and enchanting corners known only to local sailors.


Every day will be a perfect mix of relaxation and discovery: the sun on your skin, the sea around, the scents of the on-board kitchen and chatting at sunset with new adventure companions. You will find yourself collecting emotions and special bonds that will accompany you for a long time, even after disembarking.


No experience is needed: book your double cabin, let yourself be pampered by those in charge of navigation and meals, and enjoy every moment. As evening falls, you can explore the marinas and enjoy the authentic flavors of local cuisine on land (not included in half board.)


Set sail from the wonderful Corfu and experience the magic of the Ionian Islands from the sea.

Departing from our base in the heart of the Gouvia Marina, you'll begin a journey that will take you past sheltered bays, colourful marinas and incredibly transparent waters. Your skipper will guide you to discover the most beautiful and authentic places in this corner of Greece, made up of wild nature, taverns overlooking the sea and relaxed atmospheres.


The days pass slowly and pleasantly: breakfasts in the open air, lunches sailing between a dip and a SUP excursion, explorations on land with new adventure companions. As the sun goes down, each anchorage turns into a new opportunity to dine by the sea, between Greek flavors and toasts under the stars.


An experience designed for those who dream of an authentic, relaxed holiday in good company.

Start the day by sailing around the island and then to the island of Gaios, where we will head to visit the blue caves on the west coast, an amazing place that can only be reached by sea. The water around the caves is bright blue and for this reason they call them "The Blue Caves". Gaios is a port city and the capital of the Ionian island of Paxos. It is named after the saint who brought Christianity to the island. It is a pretty, large crescent-shaped village with a picturesque harbor, serving as the main landmark for getting around the island. As the liveliest of the three main villages of Paxos, there is a good selection of restaurants, tavernas, bars and shops that can be found in the many streets leading from the main square.

Enjoy lunch on board before swimming and water sports at this unique location and before setting sail for Parga. Parga is located on the west coast of mainland Greece and is famous for its exotic beaches, stunning natural landscapes, and traditional architecture.

Leg 6

DAY 6 - THURSDAY

PETRITI - BAY OF THE OLD FORTRESS OF GARITSA
After a nice swim and breakfast, we will start sailing to the Old Fortress. There is no visitor to the island who is not enchanted by the view of Garitsa Bay. After having lunch on board, you will be able to visit this special place. Corfu's most impressive monument, the Old Fortress, built on a rocky peninsula with two characteristic hills (Corifes), is located at the eastern end of the citadel. What makes the Old Fortress special is, without a doubt, the impressive 360-degree panoramic view it offers of the Ionian Sea and the old town of Corfu. For many centuries, the fortress built by the Venetians underwent transformations and expansions. Today, the Old Fortress and the New Fortress, the Old Town of Corfu and its other fortifications and Castles are UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

PRASLIN Dream Premium 8 days - Catamaran ALL INCLUSIVE with hostess/cook

05/9/2025

Sara Angela R.

Ho partecipato a una crociera in catamarano con skipper e cuoco, ma purtroppo l’esperienza non è stata all’altezza delle aspettative. La destinazione e l’itinerario proposto sono davvero splendidi, così come la cucina a bordo, che è stata un punto di forza. Anche il modello dell’imbarcazione è di grande fascino, ma la barca non era in condizioni ottimali: l’aria condizionata funzionava a intermittenza, c’erano infiltrazioni d’acqua in cabina, e nel complesso non offriva il livello di comfort e lusso promesso. L’equipaggio, in particolare lo skipper, si è mostrato freddo e poco comunicativo, al punto che spiegare le tappe o semplicemente rivolgergli una domanda sembrava quasi un disturbo. Questo ha reso l’esperienza a bordo piuttosto piatta e poco coinvolgente. In sintesi, nonostante la bellezza dei luoghi visitati e la buona cucina, il servizio e le condizioni della barca non giustificano il prezzo pagato. Rapporto qualità/prezzo deludente.

Altre esperienze con voi sono state effettuate con barche più nuove e confortevoli. Suggerisco di adeguare tutte le imbarcazioni così da giustificare il costo abbastanza elevato della crociera.
