This experience, in a nutshell

The Dodecanese Islands

Scattered off the coast of Turkey, the islands that make up the Dodecanese



make up the southernmost and most cosmopolitan archipelago, with architectural features of clear oriental influence. They were the last territories to be incorporated into modern Greece.

The archipelago is very diverse, some islands are parched and barren, others green and fertile. In fact, the Dodecanese offers a great variety of natural scenery and activities: impressive beaches equipped for every sport, safe and solitary landings, caves and fjords and even a partially active volcano.



A holiday immersed in the blue, the sun and the wind, an economical and original solution for the summer. The navigation is not demanding, the climate is mild, the weather is stable, rainfall during the summer is almost absent. 



Under a great sun, carried by the wind, from port to port, from cove to cove, we will discover the villages and landings of the Dodecanese islands. The itineraries are simple, the stages are short, the day flows relaxed, unpretentious, among the smaller islands where time seems to have stopped.

Depending on the weather conditions, we can sail northwards, between Kos Kalymnos, Leros, Lipsi and Patmos, or in case of strong winds, more protected southwards, between Kos, Nissiros, Tilos, Kalki and Symi.



You don't need pharaonic luggage (you spend the whole day in a swimsuit!), nor previous experience, just a lot of joy, respect for others and a pinch of spirit of adaptation, united by the passion for the sea.



In fact, a sailing cruise is first and foremost a  holiday of simplicity and freedom.  At sea, time expands and harmony with nature is restored . People come to rest, to disconnect from the hustle and bustle, from the rhythms and duties of life in the city.



The boat holiday is suitable for everyone, from adults to children, but it is necessary to be in good general physical shape and equipped with good agility to get on and off the tender, the service dinghy that will often take us from the roadsteads to the shore.



The final choice about the itinerary is always up to the Captain.

Our itinerary

Depending on the actual weather conditions, we will decide on the spot whether to visit the northernmost islands (Kos, Kalymnos, Leros, Patmos, Fournoi) or the southernmost ones (Kos, Symi, Tilos, Nisyros, Chalki, Alimia), which are more sheltered in case the Meltemi, a strong wind from the north, blows fiercely for several days in a row, which is more likely in July and August but which cannot be excluded. However, the itineraries and stops are countless and all beautiful.

The enchantment of the sea - Sailing in Ionian Greece: Kefalonia, Ithaca, Lefkada, and the smaller islands

Che dire.. È stata una settimana bellissima. Il mare, le veleggiate, i bagni, i pranzi in compagnia., il dormire cullati dalle onde. Oltre le mie aspettative sotto tutti i punti di vista. Andrea è uno skipper attento, preciso, che mette tutti a proprio agio. Accomodante, paziente, presente ma mai invadente. Pronto alla risata e alla compagnia, conosce un sacco di cose e posti e sa consigliare. Se potete partite, io lo rifarei immediatamente. Buon vento ????

Sarà indimenticabile! Indimenticabile per i luoghi magici e incantevoli, indimenticabile per la magia della barca a vela, indimenticabile perché Andrea ha fatto in modo da farci vivere natura, mare e atmosfere del posto e conviviali in una maniera straordinaria. Tra veleggiate e rade e soste in porto con ritmi che cullavano il corpo e l’anima.

Grazie Andrea!! Gran lavoratore e professionista, sempre disponibile e pronto alla risata, ci ha condotto nella nostra prima vacanza in barca a vela che sicuramente non sarà l'ultima. Conosce luoghi, storia e persone ma soprattutto ti fa sentire in famiglia! La Grecia è meravigliosa ma con una vacanza così lo è ancora di più. Grazie ancora Andrea, by Eli&Marco

Settimana rigenerante x corpo , spirito, mente… grazie ad Andrea, e alle sue conoscenze ho ammirato baie e luoghi mozzafiato , vissuto l’emozione di stare in mare con due foche che notavano a pochi metri da me, e avventurarmi tra grotte e scenari meravigliosi. persona molto gentile e disponibile, sempre pronto ad assecondare le esigenze dell’equipaggio, condita da quell’umorismo che piace a me… da spaccarmi dalle risate. TOP!
