Sailing Greek Seas & Islands

Greece is a land of four seas, the Ionian, the Aegean, the Sea of Crete and the Mediterranean. The coast has a total length of approx. 16,000 km, half of which is found around the thousands of Greek islands. The coasts are characterized by a unique diversity and clean and transparent waters. The majority of the coasts is freely accessible and offers the opportunity to discover them without the presence of a large number of swimmers. On a charter sailing boat to Greece be prepared for different kinds of sailing experience due to extreme diversities in terms of geographical position and weather conditions.
