Lefkada – Meganissi – Kefallonia – Ithaca – Kalamos – Lefkada<\/strong><\/h3>\n
\nStart from the port of Lefkada through the channel south, heading for the Onassis island of Skorpios. Anchoring and swimming on the south side of Skorpios in beautiful deep blue waters. The island is privately owned and may not be entered. The island is privately owned and may not be entered. The somewhat arduous ascent is rewarded by a picturesque village atmosphere and a magnificent panoramic view of the islands in the north. At the end of Spartachori Bay you will find moorings and a good tavern.<\/p>\n
\nThe journey continues south, between Meganissi and Lefkas, west past Arkoudi on course for the picturesque Phiskardo on Kefallonia. Sailing at 4-5 bft. in the afternoon is announced. For a good anchorage, it is advisable to call in early. A rich selection of taverns and souvenir shops awaits you.<\/p>\n
\nHeading 120\u00b0 to Polis Bay on Ithaca. From here Odysseus sailed to Troy with his fleet. Swim, or go in search of Polis, the city of Odysseus on the hill above the bay in Stavros. Then further south through the Devil’s Channel to Euphemia on Kefallonia. From here, a shore excursion is worthwhile to visit Melissani Cave, an underground lake that is illuminated through a natural opening in the cave ceiling and lets its water gleam in turquoise to dark blue.<\/p>\n
\nHeading east, it goes around the southern tip of Ithaca to Pera Pigadi Bay, where you can anchor on 4-10m sand and search for the Arethusa spring on the Koraka rock to rest like Odysseus once did at his Swineherd Eumaeus. After a refreshing swim it is time to head to Kioni to find a safe haven in atmospheric surroundings for the night.<\/p>\n
\nWe recommend a sailing excursion to the group of Dragoneras Islands off the coast of Astakos before heading north via Kastos and Kalamos Here the Porto Leone Bay is ideal for swimming and spending the night.<\/p>\n
\nThe penultimate day should be enjoyed leisurely, a little sailing and a lot of swimming, e.g. in one of the northern bays of Meganissi, from where you can sail on the<\/p>\n

Lefkada – Antipaxos – Paxos – Parga – Corfu – Othoni – Lefkada<\/h3>\n
\nFrom Lefkas through the channel north. The pontoon bridge at the lighthouse is opened for passage every hour on the hour. Course Antipaxos, passing the cliffs of Daskalia west to anchor bay Sazakiniko on the west coast. Short bathing stay. Continue north to the natural port of Gajos on the east side of Paxos. The entrance from the south between the lighted piers is only 2m deep, so it is better to approach from the north.<\/p>\n
\nFrom Gajos to Corfu to Marina Gouvia. By bus or taxi to Corfu Town (approx. 4 km) to stop off in one of the many old town taverns, or to drink a Helleniko coffee under the arcades at the top of the Esplanada.<\/p>\n
\nEarly start from Gouvia to the NE to the bay of Kouloura, opposite the Albanian mainland and further around the North Cape of Corfu with a course to the island of Errikousa. The bay to the south offers good shelter except for southerly winds (sirocco).<\/p>\n
\nContinue to the islands of Othoni, Mathraki to Paleokastritsa on the NE corner of Corfu, a stretch of coast with beautiful bays.<\/p>\n
\nOn the way south there are many beautiful beaches, but no longer a harbor of refuge. Next destination is the fishing port of Lakka on the northern tip of Paxos.<\/p>\n
\nContinue via Parga on the mainland coast to Preveza at the entrance to the Ambracian Gulf. There 31 B.C. the naval battle of Actium took place. The Roman general Octavian (later Emperor Augustus) had the city of Nicopolis built to commemorate his victory over Antonius and the Egyptian queen Cleopatra, the ruins of which are a sight north of Preveza.<\/p>\n
\nWith a course of 183\u00b0 in a fresh wind in the afternoon from Preveza to Lefkas.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”2 weeks” tab_id=”1585324183568-8fd5a552-a38b”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n2 weeks – approx. 241 nm<\/h2>\n

The island is privately owned and may not be entered. Spend the night in one of the idyllic bathing bays of Meganissi, or in Spartachori, the most beautiful village in the Ionian island world. The somewhat arduous ascent is rewarded by a picturesque village atmosphere and a magnificent panoramic view of the islands in the north. Am Ende der Spartachori-Bucht findet man Moorings und eine gute Taverne.<\/p>\n

\nFrom Euphemia further south to the NE corner of Zakynthos to the bay of Agios Nikolaos, named after the islet of the same name in front of it. Bathing and refreshments in the beach tavern.<\/p>\n
\nBack to the north cape (approx. 2 nm) and along the west side approx. 7 nm to the wreck bay. White sand and deep blue water invite you to swim. In the afternoon back to Cape Ag. Skinari around to Zakynthos port. The city with its Venetian flair offers every supply option.<\/p>\n
\nCourse ESE to Katakolon (approx. 23 nm) on the Peloponnese from where you can easily reach ancient Olympia by taxi or bus. If you want to enjoy the endless Greek starry sky from the sea, start from Katakolon on the evening of the 7th day heading north towards the island of Oxeia. You cross the ferry routes to Kyllini and Patras.<\/p>\n
\nSwim stop in Oxeia in the morning. Then we continue north along the coast, west past the island of Petala and east past Pontikos, to the anchor bay of Agios Panteleimon for overnight stay.<\/p>\n
\nOne day swimming, snorkeling and in the afternoon sailing in the Dragoneras archipelago off the coast of Astakos, an adventure of a special kind. Overnight stay in Astakos, with good supply options and many inexpensive taverns.<\/p>\n
\nWith a southwesterly course in the direction of Pera Pigadi Bay on the SE side of Ithaca (see also one-week trip, option 1).<\/p>\n
\nNorth along the east side of Ithaca, heading for the island of Atokos. Swimming in the bay at the SE corner in crystal clear water. \u00dcbernachten im sicheren Hafen von Kioni auf Ithaka.<\/p>\n
\nPure sailing via Kastos to Kalamos and overnight in the anchor bay of Porto Leone.<\/p>\n

\nCombination of one and two week trip<\/p>\n
\nTwo week cruise + one week Gulf of Patras and Corinth visiting Delphi, the ancient sanctuary of Apollo, from Galaxidi port.<\/p>\n
\nPeloponnese circumnavigation. With the usual NW wind, a counter-clockwise circumnavigation is recommended. The tranquility and beauty of the southern Peloponnese, especially the Mani area, make every sailor’s heart beat faster. But the journey through the Isthmus of Corinth is also a special experience.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tta_section][\/vc_tta_tabs][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row rt_row_background_width=”fullwidth” rt_row_content_width=”default” rt_row_style=”default-style” rt_row_height=”” rt_row_borders=”” rt_row_shadows=”” rt_column_gaps=”” rt_row_paddings=”true” rt_bg_effect=”classic” rt_transparent_bg=”” rt_bg_image_repeat=”repeat” rt_bg_size=”cover” rt_bg_position=”right top” rt_bg_attachment=”scroll” rt_bg_video_format=”self-hosted”][vc_column rt_col_paddings=”true” rt_wrp_col_paddings=”false” rt_column_shadow=”” rt_border_top=”” rt_border_bottom=”” rt_border_left=”” rt_border_right=”” rt_border_top_mobile=”” rt_border_bottom_mobile=”” rt_border_left_mobile=”” rt_border_right_mobile=”” rt_bg_image_repeat=”repeat” rt_bg_size=”auto auto” rt_bg_position=”right top” rt_bg_attachment=”scroll”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
