Lazy fishing villages, reliable winds, breathtaking bays and fantastic local food all await you on this exciting flotilla.
SATURDAY DEPARTURE - 1 WEEK
Explore the beautiful Northern Ionian on our Corfu flotilla. Starting and finishing in Gouvia marina, the classic "South Route" takes a gentle and meandering route between mainland Greece and the famous Paxos island, visiting unspoilt villages, lively towns and world-famous bays. The more adventurous "North Route" offers more challenging sailing conditions exploring the lesser known northern bays and remote Erikousa island.
We embrace a relaxed flotilla atmosphere where you are free to plot your own course and arrival at each day's destination if you would like to. More experienced skippers enjoy this freedom whilst taking advantage of the social aspect of the flotilla. Less experienced skippers will appreciate the invaluable assistance of the lead crew, giving you the peace of mind to enjoy your holiday.

Learn to Sail on flotilla in Greece
With sheltered water and straight-forward navigation, the Ionian flotilla in Greece is ideal for beginners who wish to start sailing their own yacht on flotilla. We can offer an instructor on board your flotilla yacht for the week to build your confidence as skipper of your own flotilla yacht. This is ideal for couples and families who would like to join in a flotilla experience but need some instruction. On successful completion of the course you will be able to skipper a yacht within our flotilla under the guidance of our lead crew, practising your new sailing skills. This is not an RYA accredited course. If you would like to gain an RYA qualification then please see our RYA Courses.
These courses are great for families to learn to sail together but remember the instructor will not look after young children so one parent may only get to crew standard. This is also a good "refresher" course if you haven't skippered for a while. While parents refresh their skills, younger children can learn safety onboard and teenagers can become useful crew. You will have to allocate a cabin for the instructor.
Day 1 (Saturday) : Gouvia Marina, Corfu
You join your flotilla at Gouvia marina, just a 15-minute drive from Corfu airport. This modern marina is a great starting point for your holiday and after settling in on your yacht there’s time for a stroll around the shops and a relaxing dinner.
Day 2 (Sunday) : Kassiopi, Corfu (11nm)
Our first stop is Kassiopi, an old fishing village on the northeast coast of Corfu, which has retained its charm. A bustling small town set around a scenic harbour, the waterfront is lined with traditional tavernas and seafood restaurants, overlooked by the remains of a Byzantine castle.
Day 3 (Monday) : Erikousa Town (17nm)
One of the most virgin islands of the Ionian Sea, Erikousa stands 8 nautical miles northwest of Corfu surrounded by crystal clear blue waters, endless golden and steep cliffy beaches. Meet the friendly locals who are very excited to welcome you and help you with your adventurous trip.
Day 4 (Tuesday) : Stamoleka Beach (1nm)
Erikousa is all about remote relaxation, so take it easy sailing around the island to explore, before spending the night anchored off sandy Stamoleka beach with a group BBQ ashore.
Day 5 (Wednesday) : Agios Stefanos, Corfu (17nm)
Sailing downwind the flotilla stops in Agios Stefanos, a beautiful little fishing village which is a popular holiday destination for the Greeks. The picturesque harbour is lovely to wander around before settling into one of the tavernas for a delicious traditional meal.
Day 6 (Thursday) : Corfu Old Town (8nm)
Enjoy a night in Corfu town, a Unesco World Heritage Centre known for its rich history. With beautiful Venetian architecture and the Old Fortress, the old town is a charming visit.
Day 7 (Friday) : Gouvia Marina (4nm)
Before returning to Gouvia Marina, taking a lunch stop at Vido island the former Alcatraz of Corfu is the perfect way to end the holiday.
Day 8 (Saturday) : Corfu
Disembark at Gouvia Marina and take your included transfer back to the airport.
