Base
(Ionian Islands)
The Ionian islands is a group of 7 principal islands, of which the bigger
one is the more cosmopolitan, Corfu. During their long and adventurous
history, the lonians have been occupied by the Italian, the French and the
English.
The mixture of different civilizations and cultures is harmoniously welded
together into one piece that is undoubtedly Greek, with a face painted in a
unique way against any other area in Greece. The green luxuriance of the
islands is in direct contrast to the high mountains of Albania and the
mainland of Greece.
The fleet in the lonians is located in Corfu (Marina Gouvia), from where you
can start exploring the Southern lonians, down to the picturesque Paxos,
Antipaxos, Mongonisi, Mourtos, Sivota, Parga and Preveza in the mainland,
Lefkas with its numerous ports and bays, Ithaki, Cephalonia and Zante.
Alternatively you may choose your departure from Lefkas where
additional yachts and catamarans are available..
Protected waters, a multitude of little safe anchorages, accessible only by
yacht, all assure a variety of leisurely sailing experiences, all combine to
create an endless relaxing holiday.
