Itinerary
Sailing around the Greek Sporades is an excellent choice for a one-week sailing trip, offering a mix of stunning landscapes and delectable cuisine. Starting from the port in Skiathos, you can explore a variety of charming islands that showcase the best of the region.
Skiathos is a lively island known for its vibrant atmosphere, charming streets, and a range of dining options. Before leaving the island for the next destination, it's worth stopping for a while at Koukounaries Bay, famous for its sandy beaches and crystal-clear waters.
Next, sail northeast to Alonissos, known for its pristine landscapes and calm bays, allowing you to immerse yourself in nature and unwind away from the crowds.
The next stop is Kira Panagia, an almost uninhabited island that offers a peaceful retreat. Spending the night in one of its secluded bays allows you to enjoy the tranquil surroundings and admire the beauty of the night sky.
Skyros, located further south, is the next destination on the route. The island draws visitors with its wild nature and traditional architecture. A stop in the port of Linaria is worthwhile, as it provides a peaceful anchorage and convenient access to the charming capital, Skyros Town.
Heading back north, it’s worth visiting Skopelos, an island that gained popularity thanks to the movie "Mamma Mia!" and is known for its green hills and picturesque bays. The port in Skopelos Town is perfect for restocking supplies and spending the night, while Panormos is a great spot for a relaxing break during your sailing journey.
The trip concludes with a return to Skiathos, but along the way, you can explore lesser-known bays, enjoying the peacefulness of the Greek sea, the stunning views and tranquil anchorages.

I started my sailing adventure with inland cruises, exploring Masuria, which developed into a great passion for water, wind and the sailing lifestyle. The beginning of sea expeditions is primarily the Baltic Sea and the North Sea. It was the northern seas of Europe that shaped me as a sailor and as a person.
​
The last few years have been marked by warm waters of the Mediterranean Sea, Croatia has become a second home and sailing is a way of life.

After sailing over 40,000 nautical miles, I am very happy to pass on my knowledge and spread my passion for sailing.
