review about 2 boats of pure fun in Northern Sardinia August 2022
A week of Sailing Holiday in Flotilla , in the funnest area of Greece: Ionian Greece, Lefkas, Itaka and Kefalonia.
Flotilla Velasquez UP - Express your energy with many other friends who love the sea and fun like you - we will sail among the islands of Ionian Greece, and you will sleep at anchor with aperitifs at sunset and having boat parties, going down in the beaches with the tender and landing in one or two ports for visits and dinner on land.
We will sail starting from the main city of the island of Lefkada, in the center and with clubs and restaurants nearby.
We will sail with the breeze wind typical of the area and we will explore the main islands of the area: Lefkada, Meganissi, Atoko, Itaka Kefalonia and Skorpio, the private island of Onassis, with landing in the island of Itaka and dinner on the ground.
Ionian Greece, for the typical breeze winds of the day and quiet bays at night is the TOP for all of us, sailors and lovers of the sea.
I am at your disposal for any info.
