Highlights

There are many spectacular islands in the Cyclades and we encourage guests to get involved in deciding where we should visit during the week, some might prefer more vibrant towns and some might prefer more off the beaten track hideaways. As in any sailing adventure, weather, especially wind, will always be a factor and the skipper will always have the final say in where we visit.

Weather

The Aegean’s wind patterns provide ideal conditions for a thrilling sailing adventure, with breezes ranging from force 2 to 5 during the early and late parts of the season. In August and early September, the North-blowing Meltemi wind brings slightly stronger winds. From April to October, the Cyclades Islands experience a Mediterranean climate characterised by long, sunny days, warm temperatures, and minimal rainfall. During this period, visitors can expect delightful  weather, clear skies, and the cooling Aegean breezes to take you from island to island.
