Itinerary

Itinerary Notes

The Ionian Cruise itinerary is subject to change dependent on weather conditions, difficulties at docking or unforeseen circumstances. This decision will be made solely at your captain’s discretion, based on the safety of the group and the ship. Travel insurance is hi...

Departure Day:
 Mondays (In June, July, August and September)

Departure Time:
 17:00 (Please try and arrive 30 minutes before)

Finish Time:
 09:00 (On the following Saturday, docking at Corfu)

Note:
 It is also possible to finish the trip on Sunday evening, as the vessel will have already arrived in Corfu by then.

Day 1 Corfu-Kassiopi

As today is the arrival day and we don’t set sail from the Old Port (NAOK marina) until after sunset, you have plenty of time to explore the wonders of Corfu Island.

The UNESCO World Heritage town of Kerkyra (Corfu Old Town) is full of cultural heritage from it...

Day 2 Sivota- Mourtos

The rainfall on the Ionian Islands is what enables its lush and verdant landscapes to flourish. Think of thick forests, natural coves, green hills with olive groves, and ardent valleys that sit back-to-back with crystal clear waters and sparkling white beaches.

Day 3 Parga

Nestled on the Ionian coastline of the Greece Mainland, Parga has been described as one of the region’s most beautiful villages. This is because of its two crystal clear bays that line either side of its main town and the iconic Venetian fortress that forms an impress...

Day 4 Antipaxos

Not many people know of Antipaxos, overshadowed by the main island of Paxos, but you will be glad you got to experience this lesser-known beauty spot.

First, we fuel up with a lunch before stopping for some coastal relaxation time at some of the islands seclude...

Day 5 Gaios: Paxos

With white pebble beaches, striking blue seas and lush green countryside, Paxos is one of Greece’s best-kept secrets. We will dock at the port of Gaios ready for a full day on the island.

You can easily explore with a motorcycle, although it’s also easy by foot...

Day 6  Lakka: Paxos

Dotted with secluded bays and sea caves, with shallow waters for those keen to explore the underworld of the Ionian Sea, this part of Paxos Island is an explorer’s dream.

Enjoy lunch on the vessel while we sail towards bustling Lakka, the second largest village...

Day 7 Corfu

Before we head back to the mainland of Corfu Island, with free time to explore, we take the chance to fit in one more of Corfu’s long sandy beaches. We visit the beautiful Benitses Beach and village on the east coast of the island, enjoying an onboard lunch on the way...

Day 8 Departure Day

As we come back in full circle to Corfu, this is our departure day, where you’ll say goodbye to your new friends and your crew. Hopefully, we have inspired you with this Greece sailing trip and hope to see you next year for more sailing around the Greek islands.
