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.

Andrea è un bravissimo skipper, conosce molto bene le Cicladi e ci ha portato in baie e paesini meravigliosi. Ci ha consentito di partecipare alle manovre e anche di timonare, dandoci spiegazioni e ordini molto chiari senza mai alzare la voce o perdere la pazienza. Lui bravissimo nelle manovre, anche nei momenti più difficili, un grande! Barca bellissima e ben organizzata, ha anche la piastra per il barbecue, ci siamo fatti una cenetta sotto le stelle con spiedini alla brace! Tornerò di sicuro con lui appena possibile!

Andrea è uno skipper molto capace e professionale, ho apprezzato molto la sua gentilezza e la pazienza con cui si è rapportato al nostro equipaggio di aspiranti velisti, creando in barca un clima sereno e rilassato. Ci ha fatto percorrere un Itinerario bellissimo, ed abbiamo navigato divertendoci da un' isola all' altra visitando Milos, Folegandros,, Ios e le Piccole Cicladi, per finire arrivando fino alla splendida Mykonos. Un' esperienza bellissima ed indimenticabile, che rifarei immediatamente e che consiglio a tutti !
