Ionian Islands
CORFU
_
“...and all the space is covered with one immense grove of olive trees – so that you see over a carpet of wood wherever you look...”
Edward Lear
CORFU - Berthing Naok Marina
Calm beautiful Ionian seas with
lion-gold sandy beaches
Traditional fishing villages to explore surrounded by sprawling olive and fruit tree orchards
Not to be missed charming old town with extraordinary aristocratic Venetian architecture
Glamorous social scene with numerous restaurants and bars to choose from
The island has a strong music tradition and philharmonic orchestra and choir concerts are held during the summer months
Plenty of shops around the old town
Not to be missed!
Erikousa & Othoni
- two of the most virgin islands of the Ionian Sea, Erikousa & Othoni stands 8-9 nautical miles northwest of Corfu surrounded by crystal clear blue waters, endless golden and steep cliffy beaches -
Syvota is considered as one of the most exotic destinations within Greece; lacy shores, luscious green islets, long sheltered beaches with crystal clear waters and secret coves, are just some of the settlement’s characteristics that nature has open handedly offered.
PAXI / ANTIPAXI
“A group of small islands with
absolute tranquility”
Marvelous and exotic beaches,
some of them only accessible by the sea
The best preserved and most picturesque villages
in the Ionian islands, some very hip but laid-back
bars and tavernas to enjoy
“Turquoise waters lapping against pale sands and dramatic white cliffs”
Depending on the weather, either cruise across the west coastline of the island for a swim & stay in Fiscardo (Kefalonia) for the night, or cross the canal passing Lefkas Marina & stop at Scorpios island for a swim and enjoy the night at Nidri on the eastern coast or at Meganisi island.
LEFKADA
Some pretty seaside villages with wonderful beaches, authentic mountain villages and virgin landscapes once one gets away from the more spoiled tourist areas.
Enjoy the calming silence, marvel the unspoilt nature and breathtaking views, and discover the hidden romantic ruins of monasteries and watermills.
Superb watersports-Vassiliki Bay is custom-made for windsurfing and sailing. Its mountains create gentle morning breezes for beginners, but by afternoon the thermals blow down to create serious crosswinds for pros.
Although Lefkas is essentially a family island, there are a few laid back bars and clubs for evening entertainment.
ITHAKI
_
The island is dramatically beautiful, rugged,
relatively undeveloped, green and mountainous
with steep blue indented bays and charming
little harbours and villages
A wonderful haven with idyllic anchorage
The waterfront tavernas in Kioni and Frikes
are always a delight but the best places to eat in
Ithaca can be found in small, off the beaten track villages
Peaceful and tranquil night life
Anchor at the bay of Agonas
(Agia Kyriaki beach) & stay in
Assos or Fiscardo for the night.
“The largest Ionian island with a colour scheme of intense blues, golds and greens”
KEFALONIA
_
An island of forest clad mountains, hidden valleys and
castles perched on the high slopes of rolling vineyards
Plenty of historical monuments, sanctuaries, castles,
churches and monasteries to explore
ZAKYNTHOS
“The sea was sapphire coloured...”
Oscar Wilde
Huge variety of beach life
Explore life as it is lived away from the tourists
with ancient villages, Venetian architecture and
beautiful lands of olive and fruit trees
Rich, diversified gastronomy with multicultural
influences and exceptional flavours
The island hosts various breeding places for
the endangered sea turtle Caretta-Caretta
In the morning, leave Kefalonia & cruise towards the shipwreck beach in Zakynthos for a swim.
Anchor in Marathonisi for the night or in the main port of Zakynthos where there is a variety of bars & restaurants.
