North Ionian Flotilla

The Northern Ionian flotilla,  sailing from Lefkas over one or two weeks, will take in delightful bays and harbours on the Epirus mainland as well as the beautiful Isles of Paxos, Anti-Paxos with the lush island of Corfu featuring in the 2 week itinerary.

The Ionian Seas offer a stunning combination of cruising opportunities. At one extreme you can still discover uninhabited islands and hidden away coves. At the other you have harbours full of Venetian charm and sophistication. In between you will find translucent waters, short passages and clement conditions ideal for the more relaxed sailor.

Each island and every port of call has it’s own unique allure as part of the patchwork Ionian experience. You can swim in iridescent waters, explore timeless villages set amongst olive groves and vineyards, and indulge in the tastes and flavours of native Greece in traditional tavernas and lively bars. It’s a wonderful fusion of ease and adventure.
