About the route

Starting point: Corfu

About: The fertile islands of the Ionian sea – covered in pine, cypress, and colorful fields of flowers – are in direct contrast with the adjacent barren mountainous mainland of Greece. Their temperate climate, lush vegetation, beautiful mountains, and breathtaking beaches will provide the perfect surroundings for your sailing holidays in Greece. Sailing in the Ionian Sea from Corfu is ideal for relaxed sailing vacations since the distances between the islands are short and the weather is always peaceful.

Wonderful beaches, secluded bays, small villages with tranquil mooring, and of course the typical white, steep cliffs will make your yacht charter one to remember. Corfu marina is located 7 km from the Corfu international airport – CFU.
