Ionian Kefalonia Flotilla

Explore the Southern Ionian with Epic Locations

Building on past success, our Kefalonia flotilla departs from Aghia Eufimia, an ideal base for exploring the southern Ionian islands, including Zakynthos and Ithaca. Launching farther south gives us a competitive edge, allowing a more adventurous route and exploration of unique destinations.

The Zante route heads south to Zakynthos town and Aghios Nikolaos, while the Kefalonia route explores the north and west sides of the island, including Vathi on Ithaca, Fiskardho, Assos to the west, or Vassiliki on Lefkas before a beach party in a beautiful bay.

With longer sailing distances, this route challenges loyal Ionian clients, offering another way to enjoy this beloved region we know so well. Click on the icons below to zoom to the different parts of the page.

Shipwreck Cove on Zante, a regular stop for the Kefalonia Flotilla

Area Information

Nestled in the Ionian Sea, Kefalonia, Ithaka, and Zante each offer a unique allure. Kefalonia, the largest, boasts diverse landscapes from the cliffs of Myrtos Beach to the enchanting Melissani Cave. Ithaka, with its ties to Homer’s Odyssey, charms with Vathi’s picturesque harbor and serene hills. Zante, or Zakynthos, dazzles with vibrant beaches like Shipwreck Cove and the lively Zakynthos Town.

These Ionian gems promise a harmonious blend of cultural richness, natural splendor, and inviting waters. From Kefalonia’s grandeur to Ithaka’s timeless charm and Zante’s vibrant allure, these islands invite exploration into their diverse wonders within the azure embrace of the Ionian Sea.

Weather & Sailing Conditions

The Ionian islands enjoy a wonderful climate, and you can be virtually assured of great weather and warm temperatures during the flotilla season. Winds on the Kefalonia flotilla are gentle to moderate, with strengths of force 2-5, occasionally a little more in open water. For those accustomed to the calm waters to the east of Lefkas and Kefalonia, the open waters can often have a little more of a swell, particularly further south. Sea temperatures rise from 20 degrees in May to 23 or 24 in August and September, perfect for swimming.

Kefalonia flotilla holiday routes may vary during the season according to weather and operating conditions. Our flotilla crew will keep you fully briefed each day.

Routes

The Kefalonia Flotilla runs two separate routes with odd weeks sailing the Kefalonia Route and even weeks sailing the Zante Route. Full details of these two routes are below, please note you can combine the two into an epic two week holiday.

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.

Sail & Stay Holidays

Extend Your Holiday With A Week Onshore Before Or After Your Flotilla

There is no doubt the film Captain Corelli’s Mandolin raised awareness of just how beautiful Kefalonia really is, dramatic mountain scenery combined with idyllic bays, pretty villages and some wonderful beaches, all washed by crystal clear waters. It’s the ideal place to explore by road in a hire car or just relax in a beachside hotel or tranquil villa with pool and views you will never tire of. We guarantee you will be back for more.

Panas Hotel – Rooms From £60 Per Night B & B

A great find, this excellent family run hotel set in lush gardens next to a fantastic beach has it all, fantastic location, friendly staff and great value too. Located at Spartia, just 50meters  from Klimatsia beach on the south coast in a tranquil spot with a good restaurant on-site, and with several others within walking distance. The property and village are located just 12 Klm from Argostoli.

Emelisse Resort – Double Room From £150 Per Night

This is recognised as one of the most stylish boutique hotels on the island and consistently scores very highly in reviews. Large enough to offer a full range of facilities such as pool, spa, restaurant, bar, cafe and pool yet small enough to offer personal service. The range of accommodation even includes villas with private pools. The cosmopolitan village of Fiscardo is close by.
There are countless other options available on the island, from budget choices to high end luxury resorts – our sales consultants will be happy to help you find the perfect accompaniment to your flotilla holiday.
