Itinerary & a typical day

We usually sail for a few hours daily until we arrive at a stunning bay with a deserted beach or an idyllic Greek island. You will have plenty of time to enjoy activities such as snorkelling, swimming, sunbathing, exploring the island and visiting historical attractions. Your hosts will prepare a light lunch on board, which can be enjoyed in the cool shade of the sundeck. You can use the paddle boards and kayaks, water skiing, or wakeboarding at while we are at anchor. Or just relax in the water on one of the many comfortable inflatables.

This exclusive sailing holiday focuses on exploring the inhabited and uninhabited islands, with a few mainland harbours. Your hosts will try to meet your group’s wishes for activities within the weather parameters to provide you with excellent sailing each day. Depending on the itinerary, SkippersAga and Greg recommend and organise excursions to historical sites, vineyards, craft markets or undiscovered tavernas with an authentic local vibe. The main aim is to avoid tourist crowds and opt for small harbours or anchorages next to remote islands.

Skipper, & host
