As everyone who has lived this great experience will tell you, there is only one true way to really enjoy the Greek islands and the mainland coast of Greece. And that is by chartering a sailboat . Today, there are literally hundreds of yacht companies, skipper-owners, flotillas, cabin cruises cruising the beautiful Aegean and Ionian waters of Greece.
In this guide, I will help you decide what kind of boat you want, where to go, when to go and other small details you need to have in mind to get the best possible sailing experience in Greece.
Greece is home to literally thousands of beautiful islands , each one having something new, different and mysterious to offer you. Not even a lifetime would be enough to explore them all! As a sidenote, the Greek islands make up approximately 20% of the total area of Greece and the total coastline is more than 15000 kilometres, pretty impressing for such a small country! If you are looking for a combination of enchanting shores, graphic scenery, traditional food, crystal clear waters and a touch of ancient history than Cyclades, Northern Sporades and the Ionian islands are your best bet.
