Located on the western side of Greece, this area is famous for its differing islands,
contrasting harbours, quaint villages, beautiful secluded bays and varied breathtaking scenery.
Sail Ionian is a friendly, family owned yacht charter company, run personally by the current owners for the last 15 years. We are based in Vliho Bay on the Greek island of Lefkada. Sail Ionian has been built up on a foundation of dedicated service and a passion for the sailing lifestyle and the ever popular holiday destination of the Ionian.
