DAY 1: Lefkas
Meet at 6pm in the Lefkas Marina (about 20 min drive from Aktion Airport) to board your boat. Once you have settled in, the admiral crew will present you with the week's programme and safety instructions. You will have the evening to familiarise yourself a little more with the boat, get to know the other crews or simply visit Lefkas, the capital of the island.
DAY 2: Lefkas - Vathi (Meganisi) (about 12 miles)
It's time to cast off to Vathi, a picturesque village located on the north-east of Meganisi Island. During the lunch break you can take your first dip in the beautiful bay of Porto Varco. Upon arrival in Vathi, you will discover charming whitewashed houses. Hiking enthusiasts will appreciate the paths that run along the coast, offering stunning views of the Ionian Sea. Afterwards, you will have earned a refreshing drink in one of the many local taverns.
DAY 3: Vathi - Vasiliki (Lefkas) (about 17 miles)
You hoist the sails and follow the south coast from Lefkas to Vasiliki. On the way you stop for lunch in the small port of Sivota. There you will find several taverns and fish restaurants. Continue to the sheltered bay of Vasiliki, considered one of the best windsurfing spots in the world. Perhaps you will be tempted by a short introductory session? You can also go ashore and walk along the coast to relax on Agiofili beach.
DAY 4: Vasiliki - Fiskardo (Kefalonia) (about 11 miles)
You head south towards Kefalonia, the largest of the Ionian islands. You drop anchor in the north of the island, in the small port of Fiskardo. Strolling through this ancient fishing village, you will discover 18th century Venetian houses. You can also relax on its pebble beaches (e.g. Foki Beach) or take out flippers, masks and snorkels to explore the seabed. There is no shortage of taverns and restaurants here!
DAY 5 : Free sailing
Today, you have the day to sail wherever you want. From Fiskardo, you can sail along the coast to the south of the island, stopping in peaceful coves or go to the island of Ithaca and follow in the footsteps of Ulysses. The small islands of Atokos and Arkoudi are perfect for relaxing and enjoying the wilderness. The flagship will of course remain at your disposal should you need it.
DAY 6: Abelike Bay (Maganisi)
This morning we head north to Meganisi for an anchorage in the beautiful bay of Abelike. Green and authentic, it has been preserved from houses and other constructions. Nevertheless, you will find some taverns and restaurants to refresh yourself. It offers a superb snorkeling spot thanks to its clear and warm waters.

DAY 7 : Abelike Bay - Lefkas (about 12 miles)
You weigh anchor and start sailing back to Lefkas. Along the east coast of the island, you will find a small quiet cove to enjoy your last lunch at sea.

Cruising in a flotilla consists of sailing with other boats (monohulls or catamarans) while being guided by a flagship. On board this ship: a skipper, a technician and a hostess will be at your service if necessary (harbour manoeuvres, anchorage...). You will be given daily briefings on your sailing, stopovers, weather conditions, etc.
The other advantage of this type of programme is the freedom of movement. Indeed, if you wish to go to a particular place, you will be able to slip away for a few hours without any problem (by warning the flagship upstream of course).
The flotillas are for everyone, whether you are novice or experienced. Indeed, your boat hire can be done with or without a skipper.
