FAQ

Where can I start my charter?

Charters typically depart from Lefkada or nearby harbors such as Preveza Aktio, or Perigyali. These ports are all within a 30-minute driving distance of each other, making it easy and convenient for guests to reach their starting point.

How do I get to the departure ports?

Departure ports Lefkada, Preveza, Aktio, and Perigyali are easily accessible by car or taxi from nearby airports and local transport hubs. Transfers from every corner of Greece can be arranged on request.

Do you only skipper catamarans?

Not only, but I definitely prefer them. Catamarans are great for the Ionian Islands because they offer more space and comfort, with big leisure areas and plenty of privacy. They don’t heel when sailing, and their shallow draft lets us get closer to beautiful beaches.

How many guests can catamarans accommodate?

Most catamarans comfortably host 8 guests in 4 double cabins, each with its own bathroom. There are also larger models available that can accommodate 10 or even 12 guests, perfect for bigger groups.

Do I need sailing experience to book a charter?

No sailing experience is required. The skipper takes care of everything, so you can just relax and enjoy your time on the water.

What should I pack for my sailing trip?

Pack light and practical! Bring comfortable clothes, swimwear, a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen. A light jacket for cooler evenings, and any personal essentials like medications. Waterproof bags for your electronics and valuables are also a smart idea.

Are there activities available besides sailing?

Yes, local businesses offer a variety of activities beyond sailing. Guests can enjoy yoga classes, scuba diving excursions, wine tasting tours, relaxing spas and explore fascinating inland caves. These experiences provide diverse ways to immerse in the natural beauty and culture of the islands.

What if the weather is bad?

Charter itineraries are designed to offer flexibility. In case of adverse weather, the skipper will propose safe alternatives for routes and anchorages.

Is there air condition available

Yes, each cabin on our catamarans has its own individual air conditioning unit, allowing guests to customize their comfort.
