The perfect holiday with a yacht
Sailing with a skipper in Greece is interesting for many different reasons. It is obvious that when there is no sailing experience at all a skipper is required. But also for people with a sailing license, a skipper can be relaxing. The skipper knows the different areas, the local weather and the best places for anchoring, swimming, snorkeling and of course eating.
An average day: Waking up and having breakfast on board. After breakfast, we will move to our lunch/afternoon anchorage. This will be a nice bay with the possibility to swim, explore, hike if you decide to sail with a hostess she will be preparing lunch while you enjoy the bay and/or beach. After Lunch and depending on where we decided to go that night we will sail another 2-3 hour. Either we end up on anchor under the stars or on the dock in a small port late afternoon.
From our guests
We experienced and learned so much more about the food, culture, and customs of Greece from our Captain, Walter than if we had traveled on our own. We remember the wonder of sailing up to a new island and being in awe of the white sugar cube buildings with brilliant blue trim standing out against an austere rocky landscape. It was neat to dock on the main street and go just across to a taverna restaurant.
Captain Walter quickly sensed our interests and helped us explore less touristy islands, towns from the Middle Ages with labyrinth streets and small fishing villages with an age-old way of life. Richard
I’d highly recommend sailing the Cyclades Islands and viewing their massive cliffs from the sea.
