Pristine nature and a cobalt blue sea act as a backdrop, semi-deserted bays with crystal clear water and an evergreen Mediterranean scrub full of smells.
Gently gliding from port to port, we will sail to discover the colorful villages and taste the typical flavors of Greek taverns.
Navigation is quiet, the stages are short, the sea is calm between the islands which are considered a paradise for boating holidays .
The archipelago is made up of seven major islands and a multitude of smaller islands, uninhabited atolls and rocks. The islands are fan-shaped with respect to the coast: the lively Lefkada, Skorpio, Meganissi with jagged coast and caves, the remote Kalamos and Kastos .
The rocks of Formicula and the wonderful Atokos . And then Ithaca , the island of myth, the green Kefalonia and finally Zante , an island of great beauty, between worldliness and nature.
There are many stages and possible itineraries, surprising encounters with turtles, seals and dolphins.
Check out the crew!

Andrea è uno skipper esperto ed una persona con cui stare in ottima compagnia sia nelle discussioni amichevoli che nei momenti di viaggio e di avventura. La barca è comodissima ed ottimamente attrezzata. Un esperienza di viaggio sicuramente da consigliare. Grazie di tutto Andrea !
I didn’t know Andrea and I trusted about his previous references. To be frank he is a great sailor and (maybe much more important) a very honest and nice person. I really enjoyed my time on board and w the crew. I really hope to be in touch w him and I m looking forward to have an other sail trip on his boat!
110 e lode al comandante Andrea in tutto.
Esperienza, conoscenza dei luoghi, rispetto della natura, simpatia, pazienza infinita. Un grandissimo Grazie. Torneremo a navigare insieme.
Ad ogni nuovo imbarco le solite domande.
Le risposte migliori sono le persone speciali che a volte capita di incontrare e Andrea è una di queste. E mentre il suono delle onde ti riempie la mente, lui è lì e tutto sembra essere in armonia con il mare. Grazie per la splendida esperienza
Very nice cruise with Andrea.
Andrea is a cool skipper, patient, nevertheless, he proves to be a competent captain, with all the qualities that are required for navigation to take place in the best conditions (also a very good instructor !).
He has a very good knowledge of the place and took us to beautiful places, we were able to swim daily in transparent waters and, thus, practice snorkeling.
We also had at our disposal a paddle.
It made us discover beautiful ports and taverns of dream (fried aubergines !)
We were also able to observe the seals !
Andrea is a simple man, nice and always available.
Satisfied with this beautiful week !
Thank you Andrea !
What an amazing relaxing holiday! Andreas is brilliant and knows his boat and can take you to the most enchanting places. He knows the best restaurants and even can dive to untangle anchors! (what skills!) If you want a holiday of swimming and relaxing in the beautiful setting, I highly recommend this holiday.
Remember though, cash is king and there are not too many ATMs. Embarrassingly I had to beg for money to get on the ferry after the taxi was more expensive than expected at the end.
E' stata la mia prima esperienza in barca ed è stata molto positiva grazie ad uno skipper come Andrea che si è dimostrato persona amante del mare, capace nelle manovre e molto educato e simpatico, che ci ha fatto vedere posti molto belli grazie alla sua conoscenza di quelle zone. Grazie ancora Andrea!
Just came back from an amazing week sailing around Cefalonia, Ithaca, Lefkada with Andrea and I wish I could do it all over again next week :-). Andrea is a very competent skipper which made me feel very safe from the start. Next to that he is simpaticissimo, very relaxed and seems to know every little bay of the area. He did really did everything for us to give us a fantastic time, dinghy-ing us around to show us the seals, the caves, the gorgeous beaches, having a beach BBQ etc. The area is just truly fantastic to sail around. One night we were anchored in a bay, the other night in a nice little marina with plenty of tavernas, I really liked the change. No day was the same, and at the same time, they were all the same: relaxed sailing, lunches in beautiful bays, a bit of SUP or snorkling etc etc. We had a lot of fun with the group, truly a great memory! Grazie mille di nuovo Andrea! Hope to be back :-).
Vacanza bellissima, in un contesto naturalistico unico. Sono un amante del mare "vero" trasparente dalle mille sfaccettature del blu, del vento e della barca a vela. Ho fatto varie esperienze in barca e non è facile incontrare skipper dello spessore di Andrea; un connubio di professionalità, educazione, passione per il mare e rispetto dell'ambiente. Conoscitore esperto delle isole ogni giorno ti conduce alla scoperta di baie, spiaggie deserte, piccoli paesi e taverne dove trascorrere piacevoli serate. Buon vento!!
I loved the week on Andrea's boat! Enjoyed the low speed, beautiful scenary, perfect diving & swimming spots Andrea picked along the way. The crew had a chance to learn to sail & participate in embarking which I particularly appreciate! Truly fantastic holidays! I already look forward for the next trip with Andrea!
IT: Una vacanza indimenticabile. Andrea si è dimostrato un capitano eccezionalmente preparato e capace.
Non abbiate paura di fare domande, o chiedere di poter imparare i lati tecnici della barca (nodi , come usare il dingy, cosa fare quando si usa la vela, timonare ecc), perché Andrea è sempre felice di insegnare i trucchi del mestiere con pazienza e gentilezza. Consigliatissimo!
ENG: An unforgettable holiday! Andrea turned out to be exceptionally prepared as a captain.
Don't be afraid to ask any questions, or to learn anything regarding the boat ,as Andrea is always happy to teach patiently and kindly.
I highly recommend him!
Grazie capitano!
Espertissimo sia come skipper che delle Isole Ionie. Ci ha portato a visitare posti bellissimi e a me sconosciuti (che comunque avevo già girato quelle isole in barca in diverse occasioni). Molto tranquillo e sicuro di sè e paziente (avevamo tre bambini al seguito di cui il mio di 4 anni). Voto 10 a lui e alla vacanza.
Andrea è lo skipper ideale, sempre pronto a sentire l’opinione di tutti sul da farsi e soprattutto esperto consigliere sui posti migliori da visitare; a noi ha dimostrato accoglienza e ospitalità ai massimi livelli, ma soprattutto ha saputo creare da subito un’ottima amicizia. Esperto veleggiatore e preciso manovratore, si distingue nel vasto panorama degli uomini di mare per il suo spiccato rispetto per l’ambiente, veramente esemplare!
Un mare, la sua storia, le sue magiche isole, il suo incredibile blu, un Hallberg Rassy, quattro persone che si incontrano e uno skipper...Andrea con il suo amore per la vela, la navigazione, il mondo, con il suo rispetto per il mare, la sua gentilezza con le persone.
Una settimana a bordo di una barca confortevole comoda ed elegante, super accessoriata sia per la cucina che lo svago e il divertimento in acqua, spiagge e calette uniche e semideserte, porticcioli spettacolari per l'approdo e ormeggi in rade magiche e riparate.
La competenza e l'esperienza di Andrea, la condivisione e la pianificazione con il gruppo di ogni itinerario, la sua simpatia hanno reso questo nostro viaggio indimenticabile e ci hanno regalato nuove e belle amicizie.
Andrea, vero signore del mare e nella vita,
Grazie
Rachele e Davide
Vacanza fantastica, barca confortevole e comandante simpatico, professionale e molto ospitale, praticamente come andare in barca con un amico.
Grazie Andrea
Other important information
The cruise on a sailing boat brings us back to the simplicity of nature's slow rhythms, immersed in a cobalt blue sea and surrounded by wonderful landscapes. A sweet vacation, carried by the wind, we will go - very calmly - to discover sleepy villages, crystal clear waters and breathtaking bays, welcomed by the proverbial Greek hospitality. It is said that problems do not know how to swim: in the boat, as if by magic, time expands and one forgets the frenzy of city life. No pharaonic baggage, technical equipment, or previous experience are needed: just joy, mutual respect and a touch of adaptability, united by a passion for the sea, which is the real protagonist! A relaxing and exciting holiday that you will not forget for a lifetime and that many of you will want to try again. In low season there is the possibility to adapt the dates and the port of embarkation.
