We're excited to talk to all the water sports fans and dinghy sailors about our RYA courses and holidays in the Ionian. Anyone who sails a dinghy, windsurf or kiteboard already has an advantage and can quickly learn to sail a yacht, opening up a world of family holidays in the sun!

Our Informal Flotilla is a great way to expereince sailing around the Ionian islands, with the full support of our friendly team ensuring you can sail and relax!

If you're not a sailor we can send one of our highly qualified skipper with you to show you the ropes and sail you around paradise on one of our luxury Skippered Charters!

We run week long RYA Day Skipper courses from our base on Lefkada sailing around the Ionian islands of Kefalonia, Ithaca, Kalamos, Kastos and Meganisi. You can learn either the basic RYA Competent Crew course (no experience necessary!) or take the more advanced Day Skipper course. Once you have your Day Skipper ticket you can charter a yacht anywhere around the world. Come as a family and learn together in safe and friendly atmosphere.

Our sailing holiday are designed to help sailors and their families feel comfortable. We offer a wealth of assistance, from Zoom route planning and the first day on board with a skipper to the full support of our Informal Flotilla.

The RYA Dinghy & Watersports show is a great fun event bringing a bit of sunshine into February. With lots of boats, clothing, entertainment and information about all sorts of watersports. Bring the family and enjoy everything on offer!
