This experience, in a nutshell

Unspoiled nature and a cobalt blue sea as a backdrop, deserted bays with crystal clear water and a

luxuriant Mediterranean scrub full of smells: gliding gently from port to port, we will sail to discover the colorful villages and taste the typical flavors of Greek taverns.

We will base ourselves in Corfu, moored in the wonderful port of Mandraki, close to the old fortress.

Easter in Corfu is the most intense in all of Greece: the Holy Week celebrations are a unique experience that unites believers and tourists in an atmosphere of religiosity and folklore. We will sail to the island of Paxos, a real jewel in the Ionian Sea, visiting the bays of Syvota and Plataria, the island of Antipaxos and Parga on the mainland. On the way back, we will stop in the city, a lively and UNESCO heritage site, to admire part of the celebrations of Easter week.

Breathtaking encounters with turtles and dolphins if you are lucky, many caves with amazing colors!

A holiday that you will remember for a lifetime and that many will want to try again!

Our itinerary

Leaving the picturesque port of Mandraki in Corfu, we will head south, skirting the east coast of Corfu, for a lunch stop in Petriti Bay, with its incredibly turquoise waters. From here we will head to the sleepy village of Plataria, on the mainland, for the first night.

The next day we will sail to the island of <Paxos, to moor in the crystal clear waters of Lakka Bay, on the northeast side, where we will stop for the night. The next day, weather permitting, we will circumnavigate the island of Paxos passing through the outer side, full of breathtaking coves and cliffs where wonderful caves are set, and then land in Gaios, the capital village of the island of Paxos.

The next day we'll discover the island of Antipaxos, which also boasts beautiful coves and waters, and then head to Parga, on the mainland, a village steeped in history, with its castle on the gulf. We will then go up the mainland coast, stopping in the small archipelago of Syvota and return the next day to Corfu to take part in the celebrations of Orthodox Easter, which finds its most characteristic expression on the island, with festivals, shows and processions. The itinerary must be intended as indicative and will be updated on site according to everyone's preferences and the actual weather conditions. The final choice on stages and itinerary is up to the Commander.

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!
