Have a look at similar experiences to "Sailing, sailing, sailing with the Meltemi among deserted islands."!
There is a piece of sea in the Aegean that is not always known. It is what bathes the islands of the Dodecanese. Here nature is still truly wild and tourism - however still very limited - has not managed to change the appearance of the places that have remained the same for decades. Words cannot express the charm of these islands nor the beauty of navigation. It is here that we will sail, safely facing the mythical Meltemi that blows every day from the north up to 35kn. Navigation is always pleasant and exciting. The engine, here, is not used except to dock at a municipal quay, directly in the heart of a country all white and blue. Then sea, swimming and exploration with the electric tender. In the evening we talk about ourselves on a boat or in a restaurant in front of a good local dish paid for a few euros. Finally, the night ... tired but happy. The sea cradles our dreams On board with me Omar as an aid to maneuvers.
Beautiful and modern sailing boat, built with superior quality criteria and materials to be fast and safe at the same time.
A boat of 14 meters with very large spaces both on deck and below deck. 3 cabins for a total of 8 beds including 2 in the dinette, which however are not intended to be used to guarantee guests comfort and pleasure in navigation. Two bathrooms each with shower, 2 fridges including one freezer.
The boat is equipped with a 60-liter watermaker per hour which guarantees showers to everyone. Solar panels power generation system, for complete autonomy even in the case of long navigation or stays away from ports for many days.
Inflatable boat with electric motor capable of being used by anyone in total safety. Two bicycles, an electric scooter and snorkeling equipment for everyone.
The on-board electronics are of the latest generation and allow guests to consult the instruments from their phone, without risking navigation. Wi-fi and music both inside and outside the boat.
For the safety of those who cannot swim, there are little bulky self-inflating jackets (sizes also available for children) and special bracelets that signal the accidental fall into the sea and record the position.

review about Where the Meltemi blows. The charm of Patmos, Leros, Lispi, Levita and Kalimnos. August 2020
How to reach boarding. Leros can be reached by flights from Athens. The companies are Olympic and Aegean. Alternatively there are ferries from Athens and Kos. What to bring on the boat. Temperatures are very high, both day and night. We therefore suggest a light and comfortable clothing. For sailing, bring a light windbreaker. We will provide a detailed list with directions and suggestions. Tasks on board Guests can participate in navigation. We will be happy to give them all the experience they want to do at the helm and during maneuvers. Guests are required to participate in life on board to keep the boat tidy and liveable.
