This experience, in a nutshell

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 locations with infinite 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.


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. Encounters with dolphins, turtles, the Mediterranean monk seal!


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.

A holiday immersed in the blue, the sun and the wind, an economical and original solution for the summer. 

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


You don't need pharaonic baggage (you spend all 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, which is the real protagonist!.

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.

Extraordinary encounters with dolphins and turtles and with the Mediterranean monk seal, which has always inhabited these waters.

The boat holiday is suitable for everyone, however, you need a good general physical shape and good agility to get on and off the tender, the service dinghy that will often take us from the roadsteads to the shore.

Fabulous holiday. The itinerary traced by our skipper allowed us to mix time and experiences both at sea and on land very well. The stages he selected gave us immemorial baths in uncrowded coves characterized by very clean waters. Andrea was very professional, competent, public, and always attentive to the safety of the entire crew. Furthermore, with his calmness and infinite patience he managed to create a pleasant and convivial atmosphere among all his guests. We spent evenings in the roadstead under starry really difficult to forget. The management of the kitchen has never created disagreements as well as the management of the common fund.

First experience on a sailing boat and it certainly won't be the last! Andrea is prepared, helpful and able to create a pleasant atmosphere on board. Nice itinerary and a group with whom it was easy to share laughter, baths and beautiful places. A week that I will carry in my heart. Highly recommended!

As a first boat holiday experience and overall it was positive; Andrea is a very good skipper and has a good character. The only flaw is the somewhat reduced space, I think the boat is suitable for a group of up to 6 people so that you can move around more easily, and I would have preferred a slightly more organized management of meals. We have seen wonderful posts and I hope to be able to repeat the experience.
