Outline program:
From Sami (Kefalonia, reachable by plane or ferry) or S.Eufemia (as an alternative for logistical choices, a few kilometers from each other and reachable by taxi or bus at the same price), we head north with a stop in the bay for a first swim in the splendid waters of Ionian Greece.
In the evening we reach Fiscardo, here we can have dinner on a boat or reach the town on foot.
In the morning we visit the white beaches north west of Ithaca, then route to Lefkada, from Lefkada we pass to Meganisi.
The tour of the week then continues with the discovery of Kalamos and Kastos, passing through Atokos where we can dive into an exclusive bay. And then again a stop to discover the beauties of Ithaca: Kioni, Vhati. From here, head south east to finally return to Sami. From Sami if we are early we can arrive, through a beautiful path that passes through the woods, to the ancient Acropolis of Sami, an archaeological site of great beauty which overlooks the area and the new Sami.

We will sail in flotilla (depending on the number of participants) with my colleague Chris, great captain with 10 years of experience, speaks Greek, English, Italian, Swedish, Norwegian. You can view his profile and his traditional boat in the section "The skippers of the flotilla".
Designed by Alfeo Scattolin with the intention of creating a real "ocean racer" with a cruising interior, without sacrificing performance. The volumes are distributed over a considerable flotation (m.12) which, associated with a good width, allows a lot of elasticity in the distribution of the loads. This feature, often overlooked, is instead fundamental for a boat designed for different needs, from racing to long-range cruising. This boat proved to be particularly reliable in strong wind conditions. The displacement is 10 tons with a 4 ton ballast. Anyone who appreciates the vintage taste of solid wood interiors compared to the typical plasticoni of charter boats will be satisfied. Sailing is a pleasure to sail, it is fast and stable, it suffers little from the sea thanks to the powerful keel (2.7m fishing). The teak deck ensures a good seal in all conditions. The dislocation of the rooms is as follows: in the bow there is a large cabin with 4 seats on two levels, going aft there are two bathrooms, a double cabin on the left and a single cabin on the starboard side, a large dinette with a kitchen equipped with 3 sinks and a stove and oven, fridge, chart table, at the stern on the left wide double cabin, on the starboard room for the skipper.
