Area Information

The South Ionian islands sit just off the coast of Western Greece and create a wonderful protected expanse of water which is perfect for flotilla sailing. Lefkas, the most northerly island, with its rugged coastline and lush greenery, offers a perfect blend of natural beauty and vibrant culture. Kefalonia enchants visitors with its stunning beaches, dramatic cliffs, and charming villages nestled amidst olive groves. Meganisi beckons with its serene atmosphere, secluded beaches, and traditional tavernas serving freshly caught seafood. Kalamos captivates with its tranquil ambiance and unspoiled landscapes, providing a haven for relaxation and exploration. Meanwhile, Ithaka, steeped in mythology and history, invites travellers to uncover its ancient ruins, olive groves, and crystal-clear waters, embodying the essence of a quintessential Greek island escape.

These islands, plus many smaller ones offer the vibrant atmosphere of bustling harbors along with the serene beauty of secluded anchorages, all waiting to be explored.

Weather & Sailing Conditions

The summer sailing season in Greece enjoys fantastic weather, with clear skies and warm temperatures from April through to October. April and May average around 20 to 25 centigrade, rising to the mid thirties in late July and August, before reducing gradually during September and October. Sailing conditions are generally moderate with wind strengths between force 2-5. The water temperature is perfect for swimming, averaging 20 degrees in May, rising to 23 or 24 degrees in the protected bays by late August, and only reducing back to around 20 degrees in late September / early October.

Ionian flotilla holiday routes may vary during the season according to weather and operating conditions. Our flotilla crew will keep you fully briefed each day.

For sail & stay, transfer costs from yacht base to your accommodation are usually excluded and payable locally unless you are booking a flight-inclusive package.

Skippered Flotilla Sailing

While these yachts are generally skippered by guests themselves who hold the correct qualifications we can also provide a skipper for those with no prior sailing experience. This will still have all the benefits of sailing as part of a flotilla, meeting others in the evenings or during the day, organised activities for the kids as well as all the usual benefits of yachting, like exploring, swimming in secluded bays during the day, and the simple joy of travelling under sail.
