Greece is the Mediterranean’s home of sailing. With its famous islands making up twenty percent of the total land area and a coastline of over 9000 miles, a sailor could spend years sailing Greece and discovering not only new inlets, bays and islands but whole new areas stretching from the Aegean in the east to the Adriatic in the west.

The five main sailing destinations in Greece; the Ionian Islands, Cyclades Islands, Saronic Islands and Argolic Gulf, Sporades Islands and Dodecanese Islands. The Ionian and the Saronic are however the most popular.

While each sailing destination is largely centred on picturesque island hopping through crystal clear waters, they offer very definite and distinct characteristics for the bareboat sailor

 

The Ionian is generally regarded as the least challenging sailing area for British sailors, with sheltered sailing prevalent throughout. The Cyclades mixes exciting daytime sailing conditions with just as exciting nightlife on its famous islands including Mykonos, Syros and Ios. Located in the middle of the Aegean Sea, the Cyclades is probably the most challenging sailing area we offer.

The Saronic Gulf offers brilliant balanced sailing conditions and a host of islands with historic site after historic site. Highlights include Spetses, Poros and the island of Hydra, which is car and motorcycle free. It is fast becoming a favorite for British sailors looking to venture out from the Ionian Islands.

Skiathos offers challenging sailing but with access to quiet beaches and the Dodecanese Islands slightly more ‘touristy’ destinations but offer the chance to find beautiful more secluded island coves and beaches by yacht.

 

The sailing conditions in Greece are as diverse as the locations themselves. If you’re looking for calm seas and generally light winds head to the Ionian Islands. If you're after exciting sailing venture to the Cyclades Islands and for something in between, cast off toward the beautiful Saronic Gulf.
