Saturday – Meganisi

Welcome aboard! You will be welcomed on your yacht at 17:00 with a glass of bubbly and a light snack before departing for Meganisi. We anchor in an idyllic natural harbour for the night, offering a perfect introduction to Greek island life, followed by dinner at a local taverna.

Sunday – Ithaka

After breakfast, we sail to one of the most spectacular uninhabited islands in the Ionian. Expect white cliffs, crystal-clear waters, swimming, and snorkelling before continuing to Ithaka, the legendary island of Odysseus.

Monday – Kefalonia

We leave Ithaka in the morning, stop for swimming and lunch in a quiet anchorage, then continue to a charming fishing town in Kefalonia. A relaxed evening awaits with excellent local restaurants and laid-back island atmosphere.

Tuesday – Fiskardo

A full day dedicated to exploring Kefalonia. We enjoy swimming and relaxing at anchor before moving to a second village later in the day. Optional activities include scooter rentals, spa visits, or exploring the island at your own pace.

Wednesday – Syvota

We sail toward Syvota, a beautiful natural harbour village with restaurants and bars. Along the way, we stop at a special swimming location chosen depending on weather conditions – always one of the highlights of the trip.

Thursday – Secret Anchorage

A truly magical night under the stars in a hidden anchorage. No harbours, no crowds – just calm waters, nature, and unforgettable silence. This is often the most memorable night of the journey.

Friday – Lefkas

We enjoy a final morning swim and breakfast before sailing to one last anchorage. After lunch and relaxation, we return to Lefkas before sunset. The town offers a great final evening with vibrant nightlife and a relaxed atmosphere.

Saturday – Disembarkation

Check-out at 09:00. It is time to say goodbye after an unforgettable week at sea. Although the journey ends, the memories of the Ionian sailing experience will stay with you long after you leave.
