Sailing in Greece

Greece is one of the yacht charter areas in which for the skippers and crew no boredom occurs. Each day turns out varied, when visiting the numerous islands, the white villages with their monasteries, churches and taverns, as well as many other outstanding attractions. With its over 3,000 islands, Greece comprises a remarkable coastline of approximately 14,000 kilometers, with crystal-clear seawater. Therefore, this country with its numerous islands is ideal for a perfect sailing holiday.

Yacht charters shouldn´t avoid the Greek capital, Athens. There, in one of the oldest cities in the world, you find the Acropolis and the Monastery of Daphni, which are a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and many more attractions and points of interest.

The Ionian Sea is located on the southern point of the Adriatic Sea, and it is not far to the eastern coast of Albania, and the western located regions of Apulia and Calabria.

Sailing in the Aegean Sea let the heart of many sailors beat faster. The Cyclades – a group of islands in the Aegean Sea – look very rocky at a first glance, and the Meltemi wind sometimes blows devastatingly through. The other group of islands – with 12 large islands – including the famous island of Rhodes, is marked by lovely beaches, volcanic craters and medieval cities.

The Sporades, located in the Aegean Sea, count around 170 islands, well known especially for their sparse vegetation. The good weather conditions and the scenic diverse region are a paradise for sailing fans!

Who endurances, should take the route of Crete. Sporty yacht sailing is required, as the westerly winds predominate. Although Crete is a quite large island, you will encounter on the south side only small fishing ports. The larger ones are on the north and southeast side.
Therefore, a sailing trip in Greece will be remembered for a long time by the adventurers!
