Sailing from Lefkas

Lefkas is one of the best places to start discovering the Ionian Islands while sailing!

Easily accessible from the airport in nearby Preveza, Lefkas (Lefkada) is the perfect place to start discovering the Ionian Islands while sailing in the opal waters of the Ionian Sea.

World famous islands such as Kefalonia, Ithaca, and Kalamos are all just a few nautical miles away from Lefkas. Further to the south is the popular island of Zakynthos (Zante) with its famous shipwreck beach. To the north the islands of Paxoi and Antipaxos are among other popular destinations in Greece as are the mainland areas of Parga and Syvota while the world famous island of Corfu offers enough to occupy for days!

Because of the small distance between the islands the whole eastern section of the Ionian Sea is weather protected and sunny most days of the year, but also windy enough to enjoy sailing!

Antipaxos

Its olive groves in harmony with its large vineyard and the chalk white coast attribute to Antipaxoi the unique beauty of an unspoilt paradise.

Atokos

Although Atokos is a private island visitors are allowed to visit the island and swim in the crystal-clear turquoise waters.

Corfu

The amazing island of Corfu is located in the western side of the Ionian Sea. Although Corfu is not that close to the section where most of the Ionian Islands are located, it is one of the most accessible ports of Greece!

Ithaca

Ithaca, Ithaki or Ithaka is a Greek island located in the Ionian Sea, off the northeast coast of Kefalonia and to the west of continental Greece. Modern Ithaca is generally identified with Homer's Ithaca, the home of Odysseus, whose delayed return to the island is the plot of the classical Greek tale the Odyssey.

Kalamos

Kalamos is the largest of a fringe of small islands located in the region of Lefkada. The island’s dramatic landscape combines high peaks and steep slopes ending to the coast which are surrounded by the boundless blue of the sea.

Kastos

Kastos is a low-lying, long and narrow little island covered in olive trees and at which dozens of boats sailing over the Ionian Sea moor safely each day. It is also an excellent place for fishing.

Kefalonia

Kefalonia is located on the west coast of Greece, just 3.5 hours of sailing from Lefkada where you can easily charter a bareboat monohull or catamaran. It has a mild climate and excellent beaches. Even though the island of Kefalonia is worldwide famous, it has managed to escape mass tourism, keeping its identity pure and its waters clean and crystal clear.

Lefkada

On Lefkada you will find noteworthy sights, churches and monasteries, picturesque villages, lush vegetation, idyllic coves of transparent, turquoise waters, and beaches of stunning beauty.

Mainland Spots

Washed by the blue-green waters of the Ionian archipelago, the coasts of the Greek mainland offers irresistible locations, ideal for sailors!

Meganisi

Located between Lefkada and the greek mainland, Meganissi is considered by many to be the best, as well as the biggest and most interesting of the offshore islets in this area of the Ionian Sea.

Paxoi

Cultural village of Europe for the year 2004, Paxi (or Paxoi) is the ideal island for a peaceful holiday. Fjord-shaped beaches, underwater caves, small bays and green hills welcome the lucky visitors.

Zakynthos

Zakynthos or Zante is one of the most famous islands of Ionian Sea. Navagio (shipwreck) is only one of the famous beaches of Zakynthos that has been voted as one of the best beaches of the world. Zakynthos has different types of beaches, there are sandy beaches where the waters are deep blue and also there are many beaches covered with white, rugged cliffs and opal waters.
