Island-hop through the Aegean Sea on a spacious catamaran, dropping anchor in secluded coves with turquoise water and exploring charming villages accessible only by boat. The stable twin-hull design makes for smooth sailing while you visit iconic spots like Santorini's dramatic cliffs, Mykonos' vibrant nightlife, and hidden gems like Folegandros or Sikinos. Many charters include a skipper, so no sailing experience required.

β€œOne of the things I so enjoyed about my trip sailing the Greek islands, was the time I had to relax each day while we traveled from one island to the next. I read, enjoyed the scenery and chatted with the other guests. I can’t be in the sun all day so also appreciated that there were shady places to relax on our catamaran. The stern had a lovely seating area that was covered. We could sit in the open air, but still be in the shade. On our way to Poros we were treated to a visit by a pod of dolphins who played alongside the boat and then raced together at the bow. Thrilling! Other perks of Greek island hopping by private charter included not dealing with ferry schedules – or ferry delays – and no packing and unpacking. Spending the week on a sailboat was so relaxing.”

β€œFor our sailing trip, breakfast and lunch were included onboard the catamaran. We had healthy, delicious Mediterranean-style meals prepared for us everyday. Lunches included a beautiful charcuterie board, oven-baked sea bass, flavorful shakshuka, and peppers stuffed with orzo. Wine and beer were also served during lunch. Every evening, we had dinner off the boat, in charming taverns and hilltop restaurants with a view. Greek food is one of my favorite cuisines in the world and we seriously had some of the best seafood I’ve ever had on this Greece sailing holiday. The seafood linguini and shrimp saganaki I had at Taka Taka in Gaios were to die for, we would have eaten there again if we had another night there; the grilled octopus, steamed mussels and squid ink risotto at Restaurant Kohili in Loggos on Paxos Islands also blew my mind. Seriously, Good food is everywhere on the Greek Islands!”
