Day 1: Check-In
Check in from 18.00 at the Marina of Lefkas. Being located in the eastern part of the island, a few hundred meters from the city centre, it is one of the most recent and best-served tourist ports in Greece. After the technical check-in and a short presentation of the boat, you can take your seat in the cabins and board the galley. Dinner ashore and overnight on board.
Day 2
You set sail from Lefkas and follow the long channel with a placid sail to the open sea where you set sail to the small island of Kastos, truly one of the pearls of the Ionian Sea. The small harbour on the eastern side is the ideal stop for a dinner ashore where you can appreciate the excellent local cuisine and the unquestionable hospitality of the inhabitants of this small island. We will sleep in the roadstead.

From Kastos, anchor early in the morning for a beautiful sail to Itaka, one of the smallest and yet most fascinating inhabited islands in Greece.

It is the perfect place to relax in tranquillity and enjoy the spectacle that this island offers. We will dine ashore in one of the local restaurants and sleep in the roadstead.
Day 6
We will anchor late in the morning, sailing north from Meganisi towards Skorpions Island, a private island almost entirely covered by forests from south to north, offering a scenery of trees of various species and colours. At sunset, you can stop for the night in one of its quiet bays in the south-east, where you will find white beaches surrounded by ancient olive trees.
