This experience, in a nutshell

There are countless and beautiful locations with many possible variations.

The navigation is not demanding, the climate is mild, the vegetation is luxuriant, rainfall during the summer is almost absent, the sea is calm sheltered between the islands and the mainland.



Under a great sun, carried by the wind, from port to port, from cove to cove, we will discover the villages and beautiful bays of Ionian Greece The itineraries are simple, the stages are short, the day flows relaxed, unpretentious.



There are countless and beautiful places with many possible variations: Lefkada, Ithaca, the island of myth, the green Kefalonia, and the wonderful smaller islands of Kalamois, Kastos and Meganisi, the atolls of Atokos and Arcudi, the rocks of Formikula, the sleepy villages on the mainland of Paleros and Mytikas, where time seems to have stopped.



These seas were the scene of Ulysses' legendary journey to his beloved Ithaca and have been at the center of very important historical events, rich trade and endless disputes over the centuries. Scattered throughout the archipelago, traces of it will be found, between history and mythology.

The 10 days on a sailing boat were beautiful. An experience that filled my eyes and heart... it would not have been such if I had not sailed in the company of beautiful people with whom a pleasant connection was created. I thank the "Super Skipper Andrea", a professional: competent, reliable and generous. A holiday that I recommend to those who love the sea and freedom!

Andrea is a professional, always ready to make you happy! We visited beautiful places and in rather challenging wind and sea conditions, which only an expert sailor could make so pleasant!
