We will sail from island to island and bay to bay onboard my yacht that has just completed a sail around the world and is equipped with many nice toys like a SUP and a watermaker that makes life on the sea comfortable and chill. We will do a good mix of swimming around the boat in anchorages, visiting 1-2 island towns and explore there, visiting beach bars and Tavernas and maybe take a scooter to drive around an island. We will pool about 200 Euros per person at the start of the trip for the "crew kitty" to get food and drinks for the week and for marina fees and for re-fueling the boat at the end of the trip.

About Me! I am a 37-year-old German journalist who quit his job to sail around the world. I have also worked as a yacht skipper as a side job for 10+ years. I have also a masters degree in Political Science and Sociology. I am easygoing and uncomplicated as a person.

The boat has 4 double cabins. You share your cabin usually with another crew member of the same sex unless you want it differently. We also have 2 mattresses to sleep on deck and 2 hammocks. We have two bathrooms. In the middle of the boat is the salon with kitchen and big table with sofa area to hang out, cook and eat. Any questions about the trip? You can let me know in the Q&A section!

5/5
The sailing trip was incredibly well-organized from start to finish. Our trip leader was absolutely fantastic communicative, knowledgeable, and incredibly patient with the crew with zero sailing experience (which included me, a total beginner). Despite my inexperience, we were able to work together as a team and learn the basics of sailing, and even had the chance to try being co-captain, steering the boat, and working with the sails. It was an empowering and fun experience! We had an amazing time on the boat, sharing laughs and making lifelong memories. One of the highlights was exploring beautiful, hidden beaches and bays. We even got to visit nearby historical sites, like an old fortress and a lighthouse, which made the trip even more special. But the absolute best moment? Watching the sunset from the boat, far out at sea, away from the coastline. It was a breathtaking experience, something you really have to see for yourself. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tdZirfFZcyQ&ab_channel=Dodo

Trip Itinerary
1

Lefkada

Day 1-2
On the first day of the trip we first provision the boat for the whole week with a big supermarket run in Levkada town. Then we either go off to anchor out with a view towards the island or stay in town and explore the bars of the old town a bit more.
2

Zakinthos

Day 2-3
After a longer sailing day south we stop at the island of Zakynthos. Maybe at the famous shipwreck bay, with its massive white cliffs. Maybe we will anchor in one of the bays in the south where the there is a turtle sanctuary. Maybe we will be able to see one or two while swimming around the boat after anchoring.
3

Methoni

Day 3-4
After a long gentle sailing day with lots of time to sunbathe on deck, we arrive on the southwest corner of the Pelopones and anchor next to this medieval town with its nice beach to enjoy the view over a sundowner drink.
4

Elafonisos

Day 4-5
After a long sailing day we arrive at this stunning beach - one of the best in Greece. The fine white beach sand really stirs up feelings of the Caribbean. Because its far from any city we will have this beach almost to ourselves. There is also an offlying island to hike up to to enjoy the view of this double beach.
5

Monemvasia

Day 5-6
Monemvasia is an impressive medieval town perched on a rock overlooking the bay. After sailing along the mountain ranges of the eastern Pelopones, we explore its small cobble-stone streets. Maybe we enjoy some food in a fish taverna, or cook on our boat and hang out on the pier, talking to other sailors.
6

Poros

Day 6-7
At the end of our sailing trip we sail past the islands of Dokos and Hydra into the sound of Poros and past the elegant harbor promenade with the many yachts to find our spot. In the evening we stroll up to the clock tower to enjoy the view over the bay.
