Saronic Gulf & Aegean Explorer Flotilla

The Saronic Explorer Flotilla

This is a great chance to end the season, with a fantastic 2 week voyage around the best of the Saronic & Argolic Gulfs.

Starting from our winter home port of Korfos, we’ll explore the best of the Peloponnese coast, as well as the Saronic and Argolic gulfs before heading east for a taste of the Cyclades islands, weather permitting.

We’ve got extensive knowledge of the area, and our fantastic lead crew will ensure we see the best of this fantastic part of Greece during your 2 week voyage. October can be a changeable time weather-wise, so as sailors, we won’t surprised if the route needs to be adapted to suit the variable conditions that we will certainly experience. Wherever we go, you can be sure that our crew will make sure we go to some great locations, with hearty warm food and a cold drink to round of some great sailing days in the warming Aegean sun.

Area Information

The town of Korfos, 30 minutes from Corinth, is nestled between the Peloponnese and mainland Greece, an area that boasts a rich tapestry of history, where ancient ruins blend seamlessly with modern life. The Gulf of Corinth stretches to the west, offering stunning vistas of rugged cliffs and crystalline waters, inviting travelers to explore its hidden coves and picturesque towns. Delphi, one of the most famous sites of Ancient Greece is perched in the mountains above another highlight, Galaxidi, just two of the amazing places in this quiet sailing area.

The Saronic Gulf captivates with its tranquil allure, where azure waters gently caress sun-kissed shores. Nestled within this enchanting expanse lies Epidavros, renowned for its ancient theater, a testament to Greece’s enduring cultural legacy and architectural mastery.

Skippered Flotilla Sailing

While these yachts are generally skippered by guests themselves who hold the correct qualifications we can also provide a skipper for those with no prior sailing experience. This will still have all the benefits of sailing as part of a flotilla, meeting others in the evenings or during the day, organised activities for the kids as well as all the usual benefits of yachting, like exploring, swimming in secluded bays during the day, and the simple joy of travelling under sail.
