The Sporades Flotilla suits more experienced crews who relish the sailing challenge of fresh breezes and quieter islands. One week the flotilla sails west into the beautiful Gulf of Volos, the following week east to the islands of the Sporades - Skopelos, Alonissos, Peristeri, renowned for their sandy beaches, scenic pine-wood hills and pretty harbours.
Explore the beautiful Sporades and scenic Gulf of Volos on this flotilla from Skopelos and experience exciting sailing off the tourist track.
Join this flotilla in the stunning Sporades islands, a wonderful mix of busy towns, sleepy harbours and deserted islands. The islands of Skiathos, Skopelos and Alonnisos, together with the more sheltered Gulf of Volos, offer excellent sailing off the tourist trail. Fresh sailing winds, unspoilt harbours and beautiful sandy beaches await you. These islands are stunningly beautiful with white sandy beaches, green pine forests and the bluest sea. No wonder the movie makers of "Mamma Mia" chose Skiathos for their film location!
If you have previously sailed in the Ionian and Saronic, come and discover this idyllic sailing area on flotilla. Fresh sailing breezes Force 3-6 offer exciting sailing for more experienced crews who want to discover islands and harbours off the beaten track.
The flotilla skipper and hostess are on hand with support and advice to help you make the most of the cruising area.
