ClubSolos Sailing The Ionian

From Corfu airport transfer to the Old Port in Corfu town where you can stow your luggage on board the M/S Eros. Perhaps have a wander around the Old Port and stop for a spot of lunch in a local taverna. In the afternoon either relax on board our yacht or spend some time exploring the historic, UNESCO World Heritage town of Kerkyra (Corfu Old Town). Our yacht doesn’t set sail until after sunset so you will be able to enjoy an evening meal and sample some of the local Greek fayre in the delightful Old Town. This evening we set sail to Kassiopi
(Above is dependent on your flight arrival time and what time of day you will arrive on board the M/S Eros)

Think of thick forests, natural coves, green hills with olive groves, and ardent valleys that sit back-to-back with crystal clear waters and sparkling white beaches. You can find this in the Mourtos and Sivota Islands, south of Corfu, where we sail and stop to marvel at some of the islands best natural highlights. This includes the striking Papanikolis Cave and the famed Blue Lagoon Bay, where you can swim in the iridescent blue waters. In the evening, stroll along the traditional Marina village and take your pick from one of the idyllic tavernas lining the promenade and have dinner (at own cost) while watching the sunset

Nestled on the Ionian coastline of the Greek Mainland, Parga has been described as one of the region’s most beautiful villages. This is because of its two crystal clear bays that line either side of its main town and the iconic Venetian fortress that forms an impressive backdrop.
We will have lunch onboard and the afternoon is then free to explore Parga or take an optional excursion. We stay in town for the evening where dinner can be taken in one of the lovely tavernas and enjoy some authentic hospitality.
Note: The captain will try endeavour to dock in the port for ease of access however dependant on space in the port a water taxi will need to be taken to the port side ( approx €5-€8)

Today we sail to the beautiful little-known island of Antipaxos, which is often overshadowed by the main island of Paxos. Following lunch, we stop for a little coastal relaxation time around the islands secluded, tranquil bays that are home to the picturesque beaches of Voutoumi and Vrika. Here we can go snorkelling in the turquoise waters, or perhaps go ashore and take a walk along the clifftops or visit one of the three delightful harbour towns – Gaios, Loggos and Lakka.
We will dine at a pop-up beach taverna in a secluded bay tucked away from the crowds, and later head back to the yacht and watch the stars from the deck.

With white pebble beaches, striking blue seas and lush green countryside, Paxos is one of Greece’s best-kept secrets. We will dock at the port of Gaios ready for a full day on the island.
You can easily explore by foot and spend the day seeking out the secluded coves and bays for swimming, enjoy the Venetian architecture of Gaios town or sample the world-renowned olive oil from the surrounding groves.
Watch the fisherman go about their work from one of the seafront cafes, before enjoying some of the best and freshest seafood at one of the excellent local tavernas that stock the best catch of the day.

Dotted with secluded bays and sea caves, with shallow waters for those keen to explore the underworld of the Ionian Sea, this part of Paxos Island is an explorer’s dream.
Enjoy lunch on the vessel while we sail towards bustling Lakka, the second largest village on the island set in a horseshoe bay to a backdrop of olive and cypress trees. Visit the pebbled Kanoni beach and sandy Harami beach.
Later, stroll the vibrant promenade along the seafront. Full of bars and tavernas, Lakka is the epitome of old school Greek charm. We will dock overnight at a picturesque bay here.
Tonight we have our Captains evening dinner on board.
Note: The vessel cannot dock in the marina in this area.

Before we head back to Corfu Island, we take the chance to fit in one more of Corfu’s long sandy beaches. We visit the beautiful Benitses Beach and village on the east coast of the island, enjoying an onboard lunch on the way for some final sweeping sea views. Once we arrive back in Corfu Old Town perhaps take advantage of an optional excursion. For our last evening, there is an option for us to join together at a traditional Corfu Greek Night (at own cost) to round off our fantastic week together. We spend our final night on board docked in the marina

After breakfast we say goodbye to the crew and transfer back to Corfu Airport for our flight home
