Sailing Holidays
Sailing holidays with us around Greece are unique, inspirational and definitely the answer for those looking for something totally different from a standard package holiday. We will provide the experience of a lifetime.
We offer incredible, breath-taking sailing adventure holidays around the Greek Islands, sailing out of our new base in Korfos, just 90 minutes from Athens airport, taking in stunning locations and cultural experiences.
Looking for Adventure?
If your sense of adventure makes you want to take the holiday one knot further, we can offer the combined experience of a sailing holiday and scuba diving experience. We can even cater for those who want to retain a bit of fitness while away by organising cycle rides around some stunning locations.
Sailing holidays with Atlas Sailing are unique and unforgettable. You will sail around the Greek Islands with your own skipper, allowing you to sit back, relax and listen to the sound of the bow cutting through the water. If you like, you can pick up sailing tips along the way under the guidance of the skipper and during the course of the week you will nominate one of your group to be ‘Designated Anchor Man/Woman’ who will assist when mooring up. It’s nothing to be afraid of though, it’s just a case a raising and lowering anchor but you will be shown exactly how easy it is prior to doing it.
Inside Information from Experts
If you want to see the real Greece, we’re the right choice for you. Starting from our base in Korfos, we stop off at stunningly beautiful places thankfully neglected by mass tourism – pure bliss! We can, however, also feed the curious mind and visit famous locations such as Mykonos (Shirley Valentine), and Skopelos (Mamma Mia) although with the prevailing winds these places can be difficult to reach.
Anyway, our opinion of Mykonos and Skopelos is that because of the films they get hammered with tourists hence the reason we don’t visit there too often. We prefer The Saronic Gulf and we know which are the best days to visit certain places in order to avoid the masses.
Breakfast, lunch, snacks and drinks are included in the cost of your holiday. In the evening you have the option of exploring in search of local cuisine in town quay bars and tavernas, or simply relaxing on the yacht.
The holidays are for groups of up to 6 people and we have so much more to tell you about how we can provide the holiday of a lifetime so please do get in touch for more information.
The charters are skippered by Andy who will take you to some very special places that are well of the well trodden tourist trail. You will also be looked after by Julie who will conjure up some real tasty delights.
With so much experience on board guests can rest assured that they are always in safe hands.
Our Adventure Sailing Holidays are bespoke for every group and can offer much more than sailing and are an ideal way to spend quality time with a group of friends. You could even learn to sail a yacht.
WE TAKE YOU TO WHERE THE TOURISTS DON’T GO!
Either way we have what you are looking for and what’s more is that we have the best cruising grounds in the world……. and sunshine.
If you have reached the point where you are looking for a totally unique holiday then this is your answer. This is a fantastic way for a group of friends to experience the magic and escapism that our cruises give.
Why Us?
Because you will visit islands and places far from the masses of package tourists. Imagine spending a night at anchor in the Bay of Sounion whilst being watched over by the majestic Temple of Poseidon? Or visiting the island of Hydra where time has stood still and you won’t see a car…because they aren’t allowed on the island. Not forgetting the sunshine and scenery, you are after all, sailing around some of the best cruising grounds in the world.
We can even arrange scuba diving or cycle tours. All within easy access as we are only a short transfer from Athens airport.
