...from
Athens,
Convenient flights to
Athens (map) set you up to explore the
beautiful Saronic Gulf and eastern Peloponnese.
Distances between anchorages and ports are comfortably achieved and
there are plenty of delightful islands to discover. Ancient history
rubs shoulders with picturesque and lively ports. You also have the
option of sailing as part of a
flotilla.
More experienced
sailors may wish to head east to the windy Cyclades islands with
their whitewashed ports and thatched roof windmills.
Fly to Athens cheaply
with
easyJet,
BA,
Thomas Cook
or book a flight with your travel agent. Transfers from the airport
take about 40 minutes.
...or from
Corfu or
Lefkas
Pick up your yacht
from Gouvia (a short distance from the airport in Corfu (map) or from Lefkas
(map) near Preveza

This is an area characterised by lovely beaches and romantic
villages. Distances between anchorages and ports are short and the
islands are mainly sheltered from strong winds - an ideal place for
relaxed sailing in beautifully clear and unpolluted waters.
