Known by the
Greeks as “the green
islands,” the waters around the Sporades
in the Gulf of Volvos tend to be sheltered
with idyllic sailing conditions and many
protected spots to anchor safely for the
night. The Sporades lie in the shimmering
waters off the eastern coast of Greece where
you can unwind and enjoy fine sandy beaches,
pine perfumed hillsides, ancient ruins and
abundant sea life.
The Ionian Sea boasts ideal wind
and sailing conditions, a myriad of anchorages,
quiet
fishing villages and lively resorts all dotted
among lush green islands. These ideal sailing
conditions combined with wonderful cuisine
and culture make the Ionian a superb holiday
choice.
Discover a mythological land
dotted with ancient ruins, striking architecture,
quaint
waterside towns and rugged hillsides. Fly
into Athens and spend a few days in this
fascinating city or head straight to the
town of Epidavros to begin your adventure
in the Peloponnese.
