An area steeped in Greek History and Mythology.
The Saronic Islands are similar to the Ionian in that the coastline is lush and verdant and the harbours are small and friendly. For those of you accustomed to cruising with us on our Ionian flotillas, you'll be pleased to know that the overnight stops are almost entirely village and local town harbours. The distance sailed each day will usually be a little longer than the Ionian. allowing full advantage to be taken of the regular South Easterly breezes.
We are running two flotillas of Beneteau 323s, 331s and 361s and on each fleet there will be a 44ft Bavaria. We have two bases in this area: the little fishing of Palaia Epidhavros set on the Peloponnese mainland and Navplion, a historic town in the Argolic Gulf. Scheduled flights will be Monday to Monday from Heathrow to Athens. The transfer to either base is approximately 2 hours.
End of season Corinth Canal to Corfu run!
Finally, we run flotilla cruises on the 4th (three weeks) and 11th (two weeks) of October through the amazing Corinth Canal, into Galaxidi, Trezonia, and under the enormous Anti Rion bridge. This is a relaxed delivery of our Saronic yachts back to their winter home in Corfu. (Only Beneteau 331's left now for this popular 'end of season jolly'!)
