The Northern Sporades and Pelion is most certainly ‘off the beaten track’.   Famous for being home to Jason and the Argonauts and also the spot where Achilles set sail to conquer Troy. The numerous small islands have beautiful sandy beaches and pretty traditional Greek villages.

From our base on Skiathos the flotilla heads west taking advantage of the fresh winds to the more sheltered Gulf of Volus to visit Paleo Trikeri and historic Pegadi. From there the next stop is Evia and Orei where the harbour entrance is guarded an ancient Acropolis. The return trip to Skiathos stops off at one of the areas most famous beaches at Koukounaries.

This flotilla has something for everyone, visiting some of the least discovered islands, bustling ports and amazinglybeautiful beaches.
