review about 10 days of pure relaxation and comfort in the Dodecanese (1st Round) August 2021

10 / 10
Se stai cercando una vacanza che combina divertimento, avventura, relax e nuove amicizie hai trovato ciò che fa al caso tuo! Io e la mia ragazza ci siamo imbarcati senza conoscere nessuno dell'equipaggio ed è stato fantastico. Abbiamo avuto modo di stringere delle bellissime amicizie e di divertirci un sacco. Lo skipper è stato bravissimo! Ci ha portato in posti paradisiaci e si è dimostrato estremamente disponibile in ogni tipo di situazione. Di giorno ci spostavamo in posti diversi per fare il bagno e visitare splendide isole, mentre la sera solitamente mangiavamo in delle taverne davvero particolari. Il buon cibo e la compagnia rendevano le serate magnifiche! Onestamente consiglio a tutti di provare un'esperienza del genere! Probabilmente smetterai di passare le tue vacanze in spiagge affollate per prediligere la barca anche negli anni successivi. Come già detto, lo skipper è stato fantastico e ha contribuito molto a rendere la vacanza perfetta! Grazie di cuore :) :) :)

review about By catamaran in the heart of the Ionian Islands July 2021

10 / 10
Our week on Vincent's catamaran was great! Vincent is really good captain, with a lot of experience, you can learn a lot if you want - do things on the boat - or not, depends from you. He will explain everything (he also has a groups for sail training). Apart from this, he is a really interesting person with many great stories from his life, really easy going and with good recommendation always. Normally at night you can have a dinner in a restaurant, on your own or go with the captain and the rest of the crew, we always chose the second option, as dinner with them was great and the selection of the place perfect! Melanie, his partner, was helpful, and funny! You just have great time with her! And a lot of ice-creams :) The boat is comfortable, and they do not take more than 4 people although there is one cabin unocupied so the group is more comfortable. The area of Ionian Islands was above our expectations. Wonderful views, really beautiful places with clear water. I recommend it!!!

review about Ulysses' course, August 2020

10 / 10
Skipper e catamarano Top, fornito di ogni ben di dio... Sup, canoa, attrezzatura da sub etc... Fabio oltre ad un'ottima preparazione è molto bravo a insegnare un po' di vela agli interessati, sembra strano, ma nei Charter é cosa rara. Consigliato a chi desidera passare una settimana di relax all'insegna di mare vela e tanta natura. Da non dimenticare il simpatico Jack, il cane marinaio buonissimo, sempre alla ricerca di essere coccolato da tutti, la mascotte della barca!

review about Greece - The Summer Flotilla among the Ionian Islands week 3 August 2019

10 / 10
Vacanza veramente spumeggiante, con compagni di viaggio pazzi , veleggiate di bolina con piu di 20 nodi di vento, spiagge bianche, bagni in baie incredibili, tramonti mozzafiato e serate all'insegna dell'allegria e del divertimento Un ringraziamento al gruppo di skipper instancabili che ha organizzato le nostre tappe in maniera perfetta, ma ancora di più per il nostro skipper Samuele che si è dimostrato molto professionale, simpatico e disponibile ad accontentare i nostri capricci. Sicuramente alla prossima....Buon vento a tutti

review about Flotilla of 2 Catamarans in Greece. The Chalkidiki peninsula and the remote island of Limnos August 2019

10 / 10
Ho fatto varie vacanze in barca ma uno skypper come Luca non l ho mai trovato. Attento a tutto, rispettoso del mare e di chi ci vive. Prima di essere uno skypper è un marinaio con uno spirito genuino e bello. Uno che ama il mare e lo trasmette.. Viaggio organizzato alla perfezione con un team alle spalle impeccabile. Ripartirei subito!

review about Catamaran between the islands of Ulysses August 2018

10 / 10
Vacanza consigliatissima esperienza fantastica, Giorgio e Connie sono due persone meravigliose, la loro esperienza, ospitalità e simpatia ci hanno permesso di vivere una "veleggiatura" unica che suggeriamo a tutti. Un plauso anche al resto dei partecipanti con cui è nata una bella amicizia. In ultimo ma non meno importante un elogio anche al Catamarano per gli ampi spazi e l'ambiente che si respira a bordo......e come premesso il primo giorno da Giorgio, se lo provi non lo abbandoni più!!! A presto

review about Relax among the Ionian Catamaran, Skipper and Cook, super comfort August 2017

10 / 10
Confermiamo in toto quanto indicato nelle descrizioni, skipper molto esperti che sanno come farti sentire a tuo agio. La barca è molto attrezzata e sufficientemente confortevole. Una lode particolare a Silvia, splendida 60enne, che ci ha deliziato con le sue doti di cuoca sopraffina. A presto!!

6 reasons to explore Greece on a catamaran for your next sailing holiday:

  • Discover some of the world’s most beautiful coves and lagoons in the comfort of a catamaran.
  • Explore the thousands of Greek islands aboard a catamaran with a weak draft, allowing them to venture into shallower waters than a monohull - meaning you can travel with an unrivalled level of freedom!
  • Board a spacious catamaran, that allows a most comfortable sailing experience possible - especially when travelling as a family or a larger group!
  • As a catamaran has less movement at sea than a monohull sailboat, it is perfect for first time sailors, reducing any concerns about sea sickness.
  • Experience all of the treasures of Greece - including the famous isles of Santorini, Mykonos, and Ios as well as the native sirtaki dance of the street festivals.
  • Immerse yourself into the beautiful atmosphere and charming architecture of Greece’s coastal regions aboard a catamaran.

The best destinations to visit on your holiday to Greece aboard a catamaran:

Famous sailing areas include the Cyclades, the Saronic islands, Ionian islands, Dodecanese, Sporades, and Crete - however, there are an estimated 5,000-6,000 islands in Greece. Corfu, Mykonos, and Santorini are some specific destinations that are particularly magical to explore by a sailing holiday.

Travelling the Greek isles by sailboat allows for full exploration of the areas treasures, that would otherwise be inaccessible. This is even more so the case when travelling by catamaran, due to the weak draft of the boat, meaning shallow waters inaccessible to many monohull boats can be explored! Whether you are planning to travel solo, as a couple, with friends or family, and whether you are looking for a sailboat or catamaran experience, there are numerous areas of Greece that make for perfect holidaying destinations. Learn more about sailing in Greece.

Tips to help you to better plan for your next sailing holidays in Greece aboard a catamaran:

When to visit Greece & transport options

Temperatures and the climate in Greece are pleasant and generally good for sailing from April through to November. Due to the fact that July and August are more popular for holidaying, if possible, it is worth considering travelling during May, June, September, or October if you would prefer a quieter, slightly more tranquil holiday.

Greece is home to a number of international airports such as Athens, Corfu, Kos, and Kefalonia. Greece has a well developed system of ferries that transport travellers from island to island. The organising skipper of any given trip will be able to give you the most relevant information about transport routes to and from your points of embarkment and disembarkment.

Sailing with a family aboard a catamaran with a local skipper

There are some sailing regions that are better suited and equipped for family sailing trips, and Greece is one of these regions. There is a good mix of modern marinas and harbouring options as well as more secluded bays and coves for you to enjoy with your family. All forms of sailing holiday with family holidays included, benefit greatly from having an experience local skipper leading the trip. Travelling with a skipper with such insider knowledge allows you to fully immerse yourself in the enjoyment, relaxation, and adventure of the sailing holiday in the Greek isles.
