Corfu Gulet Charter & Corfu Gulet Cruises

Corfu Gulet Charter & Corfu Gulet Cruises

Corfu island is one of the seven islands located in the western side of Greece between Italy called Ionian islands and has been by far the most popular one regarding tourism. Due to its venetian picturesque town, the breathtaking coastline, the serine hidden coves and natural environment makes Corfu ideal destination for gulet charter and Corfu gulet cruises. If you are looking to charter a Corfu gulet we highly recommend you go ahead and experience that week on board, which without a doubt will be a unique lifetime experience.

 

Corfu Gulet

Corfu Gulet itinerary

There are multiple different itineraries and route we can operate with a Corfu gulet, but for the shame of this article we will mention the two above. If your group needs any further clarifications, or wish to discuss possible alterations, it would be our pleasure to do so, email : charter@sail-ingreece.com

Short Corfu Gulet route

When we say short Corfu gulet route, we mean that your week will be with a maximum of 2/3 hours per day cruising, which will give ytou much more time to spend on the beach or exploring the traditional villages on the way.

Day 1: Corfu – Kassipi
Day 2: Kassiopi to Sivota ( Blue Lagoon)
Day 3: Sivota to Parga
Day 4: Parga to Antipaxos
Day 5: Antipaxos to Paxos ( Gaios)
Day 6: Gaios to Lakka ( Paxoi)
Day 7: Lakka to Corfu
Day 8: Disembarkation

Long Corfu Gulet route

The long Corfu gulet itinerary means you will be spending around 4/5 hours per day cruising. That means you will have less time swimming and relaxing, but you will be able to visit more destinations in one week. Usually this route is more expensive as well, due to the higher capacity of fuel consumed.

Day 1: Corfu
Day 2: Meganissi – Skorpios
Day 3: Atokos – Ithaca
Day 4: Cephalonia
Day 5: Lefkada | Gerakas
Day 6:Antipaxos | Paxos
Day 7: Corfu
Day 8: Disembarkation

NO matter which Corfu gulet cruise you select, we can warrantee you that it will be the best week of your life. Our Sail in Greece team will design with you all details for your gulet cruise, from the meals that will be served on board, to the handpicked island excursions that you can join while on the local destinations, or the airport transfers you might need before or after your flight. You will have for the entire week a dedicated Corfu gulet buddy with you all the time.

Mykonos vs. Santorini: Which Island is Right for You?

Mykonos vs. Santorini: Which Island is Right for You?

If you’re planning a trip to Greece, then you’re likely in the process of researching different islands. And with more than 200 inhabited islands to choose from, knowing which one to select can be difficult. For many, it comes down to Mykonos or Santorini.

Get to Know Mykonos

Located in the southern portion of the Aegean Sea, Mykonos is one of the more famous and acclaimed Greek islands belonging to the Cyclades complex. You’ll find it nestled in close proximity to a number of other smaller islands, including Paros, Tinos, Naxos, and Syros.

Mykonos is believed to be the second-most visited Greek island each year – something that’s due in large part to its vibrant dual personality. During the daytime, Mykonos is a classic Greek island with all of the iconic views and experiences that travelers and tourists have come to expect: windmills, cozy paved alleys, trendy shops, Instagram-worthy architecture, and sugar-cube houses. But when the sun goes down, the island’s wild side comes out. The nightlife in Mykonos is renowned, and the Little Venice portion of the island comes alive on warm summer evenings.

Mykonos or Santorini: A Comparison Guide

Get to Know Santorini

Santorini’s iconic crescent moon shape is easy to spot on a map of the Greek islands. And whether you’re browsing a map or swiping through international travel pictures, there’s no mistaking Santorini when you see it.

Year after year, Santorini continues to be one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world. Known for its beautiful rugged cliffs, pristine white architecture, and carefully “stacked” homes overlooking the Aegean Sea, this island is a lively oasis that every world traveler will eventually want to experience firsthand. 

“Breathtaking” is the only word to accurately describe Santorini. Neatly paved streets, one-of-a-kind architecture, and eclectic shops and cafes make this island a popular wedding spot and honeymoon destination. And because it’s so close to other popular Greek islands like Mykonos and Crete, it sees a steady flow of travelers from cruise ships and Greek gulets.

Which Island is Right for You

While it’s somewhat unfair to compare them, Mykonos and Santorini will forever be pitted against one another. Their proximity and popularity make them worthy “rivals” – though it’s a friendly and healthy competition.

As a traveler, you may be wondering which island is right for you? Well, it depends. Here are some factors to consider:

Best for Beaches: Mykonos

You can’t go wrong with any of the beaches on either island, but they offer totally different experiences. On Santorini, you’ll find volcanic pebbles and red sand. They’re pretty interesting and impressive, but not the kind of beach that most people think of when they imagine sticking their toes in the sand. Mykonos, on the other hand, has white sandy beaches with clear turquoise waters. Plus, you can find a beach for any style (family beaches, gay beaches, nude beaches, etc.).

With all of that being said, we give Mykonos the award for “best beaches.” We’ll put it like this: People visit beaches in both Santorini and Mykonos, but they come back for the beaches of Mykonos. 

Best for Nightlife: Mykonos

As mentioned before, Mykonos has quite the nightlife scene. It has a surprising number of clubs and bars for people of every taste. It also happens to be an incredibly LGBTQ+ community that caters to people looking for a good time. (That’s not to say Santorini isn’t gay-friendly, but Mykonos is known for gay bars, gay beaches, and world-class drag shows.)

Santorini doesn’t exactly shut down at sunset, but you’ll only find a couple of bars worth visiting late at night, and there aren’t any clubs to speak of. However, if your version of “nightlife” is a bottle of wine with your significant other in a corner booth, Santorini has plenty to offer. It all depends on what you want.

Best for Attractions: Santorini

Santorini has one of the most diverse cultures of any Greek island. It’s beautiful, refined, and distinctly, well, Santorinian. You’ll find no fewer than 16 wineries on the island, amazing museums (like Akrotiri Prehistoric Site, Art Space Gallery, Ancient Thera Site, Maritime Museum, Archeological Museum, etc.), five Venetian castles, and an active volcano!

While Mykonos is known for its beaches and nightlife, you won’t find nearly the same attractions and culture. The main town of “Chora” is picturesque and has some good food, but there isn’t as much to “do” during the daytime (when compared to Santorini). 

Mykonos or Santorini: A Comparison GuideBest for Romance: Santorini

Romance can be found anywhere, but when it comes to romantic destinations, these two islands can be best described as follows:

Santorini is for couples. Amazing sunsets, incredible culinary hotspots, quaint villages, and best-in-class hotels and resorts all make for a romantic experience tailored to couples. 

Mykonos is for singles. Party-friendly beaches, all-night clubs, and plenty of LGBTQ+ bars make Mykonos an amazing place for singles to hang out, mingle, and enjoy new experiences. 

There are obviously exceptions to this – and it doesn’t mean that singles can’t visit Santorini or couples can’t have a great time in Mykonos – but you get the idea. One is more upbeat and carefree, while the other is laid back and luxurious. You’ll have to decide which version of romance you’re looking for. 

Gulet CharterBook Your Greek Gulet Holiday

If you can’t tell by now, both Mykonos and Santorini have so much to offer visitors. Whether you’re a solo traveler, honeymooner, or large family, these two Greek islands have so much to offer. And the best way to see them is by scheduling a Greek gulet holiday. 

Sail in Greece is proud to be the largest gulet fleet owner in Greece. We own 9 luxury gulets and have the ability to arrange private excursions at the best rates on the market for all ages and group sizes.

CONTACT US 

 

  • UPDATE 12.03.2020

Every day brings new developments related to Covid-19. We want to share with you what actions we are taking fleet-wide to maximize the safety of our guests and crew and continue providing a healthy environment while sailing on board our small ships accommodating fewer than 49 guests.

Since the beginning of the outbreak, we are making a consistent effort to provide a safe environment for our guests and crew alike. It is obvious that our passengers feel the small ship environment is safer, with a maximum capacity of just 1 – 49 guests and with smaller areas on board to enforce and apply our enhanced sanitation /disinfection protocols. On shore, we operate small group tours with trusted certified local partners committed to provide Sail in Greece with proof of precautionary hygiene measures taken during the tours.

NEW BOOKING POLICY for New Bookings & REBOOKING OPPORTUNITIES for Existing Bookings:

‘’SMALL SHIPS, LARGE FLEXIBILITY‘’

While our #1 priority is the safety and well-being of all our guests and crew, our other focus is to give our partners and guests the confidence to book with us or delay cancellation decisions and not rush into canceling. To assist guests and travel partners in making decisions in regards to existing bookings, we have implemented temporary changes to our booking and cancellation policy in our scheduled cruises allowing:

o Existing bookings can be cancelled up to 30 days prior to sailing and rebook later in 2020 or 2021 at no cancellation fees, only retaining deposits paid which will be used as Future Cruise Credit against future cruises with us. Should passengers wish to move their scheduled cruise a few weeks/months later, Sail in Greece will honour all deposits made, without any rebooking / cancellation fees and guests will receive a 100% future cruise credit towards Sail in Greece scheduled cruises embarking in 2020 through October 31st 2021,subject to final acceptance 1 month prior to each departure. The payments kept by Sail in Greece effectively constitute a credit against cruise fares applying for the cruise originally booked – there might be a price difference from a year to another – and they can use this Future Cruise Credit for booking any scheduled cruise / any category of cabin.

o Final Deposit payment for our existing bookings, will be made 30 days prior to sailing, in order to make sure that our guests will have zero obstacles to join our cruise.

o New bookings made until May 31 2020 can be cancelled up to 30 days prior to departure without incurring cancellation fees

Sail in Greece

TRAVEL HEALTH ADVISORY

The safety, security and well-being of our guests and crew is our number one priority. We have implemented several preventative measures outlined below due to growing concerns regarding COVID-19 infections. We will continue to consult with The World Health Organization (WHO) and take appropriate additional action as needed.

 

PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES PRE-EMBARKATION & DURING THE CRUISES

Policies currently in place include:

• We have implemented mandatory pre-boarding health reporting and pre-cruise screening for all guests and crew. This include

          ‣ The distribution of mandatory pre-embarkation health questionnaire (applicable to all passengers and crew, view here). The questionnaire forms are completed at the time prior to embarkation and will be held under strict confidentiality and retained on board for 15 days according to the stated retention policy. Access is permitted only to Captain and                         Medical Officer)

         ‣ Mandatory non-touch temperature screenings for all guests and crew pre-embarkation and during the cruise. In the event of alarming symptoms such as signs and symptoms of illness and thermal indications (>38°C) and/or alarming answers to the said health questionnaire, those passengers will be denied access on board.

• Since the beginning of the outbreak, we have immediately amplified our standard cleaning procedures and have implemented additional cleaning and disinfection protocols on board all voyages. These protocols have been enforced in addition to our already rigorous sanitization standards in place.

The above measures will remain in effect until further notice and are subject to change at any time as we evaluate the situation and continue to consult with local health authorities as well as the WHO.We apologize for the inconvenience to any guests affected by these measures put in place to ensure the safety and well-being of all our guests and crew.

We want you to feel confident when travelling on board with us. As a result, we have reinforced some of our procedures, beyond the protocols required by the authorities:

• We have enhanced our overnight cleaning procedures with anti-bacterial and hospital-grade disinfectant throughout our vessels according to WHO recommendations.

• Our fleet is fitted with extremely efficient HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Arrestors) filters inside our a/c units, which remove particles in the air, down to the size of microscopic bacteria and virus clusters (with an efficiency of better than 99.99%).

This Advisory supersedes all previous versions and will be updated as required.

UPDATED BOOKING POLICY OF SAIL IN GREECE

  • UPDATE 03.03.2020

Our company is monitoring closely the situation about the Coronavirus and we do understand the uncertainty caused to our customers about their bookings and holiday plans for the season.
Therefore we have updated our booking policy as following:

1. For already booked charters it is possible to change your dates, as long as the departure remains in 2020 and the charter area remains the same. If the rescheduled booking is more expensive the price difference will be charged.

2. For future bookings done as from today and until further notice, the required deposit will be 10% and the remain of the booking deposit can be paid up to 30/04/2020.

3. The final payment for  future bookings can be paid latest one week before the charter departure.

4. In the case that a charter customer is unable to get to the base due to travel restrictions, when there is an official advisory not to travel to the area of the booked charter, or the border is closed to the country of origin of the customer, the term #1 will apply.
In addition it will be possible to cancel the charter and a credit note will be issued to the customer to use it for a charter departing at 2021 at the same charter area.

ONGOING MONITORING 

We’re monitoring government advice from gov.uk and smarttraveller.gov.au closely.

Should a travel restriction be applied to a region visited as part of a tour, we’ll make alternative arrangements for that element of the tour, as similar to the original itinerary experience as possible. If travel restrictions mean that we cannot operate the tour, we’ll cancel the departure and a full refund will be available.

All the above T & C’s apply for our cabin charter operations ( scheduled cruises ) and not our private charter bookings.

Authentic food on the Greek islands!

Authentic food on the Greek islands!

You can’t enjoy a Greek summer vacation without tasting all the amazing flavors you can find on the beautiful Aegean islands!

 The islands of Paros, Ios, Mykonos, and Santorini, which those on board the Sail in Greece Cruises get to discover and experience for themselves, have a cuisine based on simple, fresh flavors and ingredients, involving plenty of fruits, vegetables, local herbs and spices, seafood, and a generous helping of olive oil.

 So when you visit the sun-drenched shores of these Cycladic islands, for which dishes should you be on the lookout?

 In the lovely tavernas of Paros and Ios, keep an eye out for sundried fish, chickpea soups, and a local specialty – snails seasoned with garlic dip.  These islands are known for the particularly full flavor of these local dishes, which manage to be delicious, healthy, and inexpensive all at once. Ios is also known throughout Greece for its dairy products, particularly its variety of cheeses. Try the local “Xinotiri”, and then taste the assortment of hard and soft cheeses the island produces.

 When you get to Mykonos, take a dinner break after dipping in the island’s crystal clear waters and before visiting the island’s pumping nightlife to taste local delicacies like kopanisti and looza.  Kopanisti is a salty, spicy cheese sauce with pepper, and looza is air-dried, herb-flavored ham similar to prosciutto (but even better in taste)! Finish off your Mykonos meal with the islands amygdalota sweets, made with almonds and sugar, before heading off to discover perhaps the most peculiar and unique dishes of all in volcanic Santorini.

 Feast on tomato balls, fava beans with roasted onions, and eggplants with lamb on a cliff side taverna while taking in one of Santorini’s famous sunsets. It will be the perfect end to a tasty culinary tour of the small but colorful Aegean islands.

Looking to experience first hand the notorious Greek culinary? Join us on our Sail in Greece cruises and get ready for a food festival along the way!

Motor Sailer Greek Islands

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1610809026693{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]

Rent a motor sailers in Greece

A Motorsailer, aka “motorsailor” (US), is a type of sailing vessel, typically a pleasure yacht, that derives propulsion from its sails and engine(s) in equal measure.[1]

Whereas most sailing yachts above a certain size will usually have an inboard engine, they will not be “motorsailers”, as their principal source of power is sail, and the engine is only for auxiliary drive and maneuvering. A sailing yacht with an auxiliary engine will typically have a small propeller that automatically feathers when sailing, whereas a motorsailer may have either a large fixed propeller or, ideally, a variable-pitch propeller.[2] Compared to such “pure” sailing yachts, a motorsailer will typically be heavier-built, with less delicate lines but with more spacious accommodation. A motorsailer will have an enclosed cockpit, or “doghouse”, whereas a pure sailing yacht would have an open cockpit. A motorsailer may have a higher freeboard, and, coupled with the doghouse and other superstructure, will have considerable side windage. The motorsailer’s sail area will typically be rather smaller than an equivalent yacht’s, and any masts may be shorter. Also, while a sailing yacht will often be rigged as a Bermuda sloop or a Bermuda cutter (both types having a single mast), the motorsailer will more likely have a multi-masted split-rig, such as a schooner, ketch or yawl.[3]

Motor Sailers in Greece

While the sailing yacht appeals primarily to the purist sailing enthusiast, the motorsailer is more suited for long-distance cruising, as a home for “live-aboard” yachtsmen.[4] The special features of the motorsailer (large engine, smaller sails, etc.) mean that, while it may not be the fastest boat under sail, the vessel is easily handled by a small crew. As such, it can be ideal for a retired couple who might not be able to handle large sail areas. In heavy weather, the motorsailer’s large engine allows it to punch into a headwind when necessary to make a landfall, without endless tacking to windward.

Greek Islands :

CORFU

Corfu, an island off Greece’s northwest coast in the Ionian Sea, is defined by rugged mountains and a resort-studded shoreline. Its cultural heritage reflects years spent under Venetian, French and British rule before it was united with Greece in 1864. Corfu Town, flanked by 2 imposing Venetian fortresses, features winding medieval lanes, a French-style arcade and the grand Palace of St. Michael and St. George.

PARGA

Parga is a town and municipality located in the northwestern part of the regional unit of Preveza in Epirus, northwestern Greece. The seat of the municipality is the village Kanallaki. Parga lies on the Ionian coast between the cities of Preveza and Igoumenitsa. It is a resort town known for its natural environment.

MYKONOS

Without any question Mykonos is one of the most famous and picturesque Islands in the Mediterranean and a jet set spot, known for its night life, whitewashed landscapes and beautiful sandy beaches. A walking tour of Hora must include visits to the windmills, to the Paraportiani Church, the Maritime and Cycladic museums and stops at designers’ shops and Little Venice cafes. Make sure you meet “Petros” the Pelican, the mascot of Mykonos.

NAXOS

The island of Naxos is the largest and most central island in the Cyclades. Approaching the island by boat, you can see two small islands to the left and right of the harbour, one with the little church of Myrtidiotissa, and the other called Palatia which is linked to Naxos Town. The imposing gate, Portara is an ancient marble temple dedicated to Apollo. Ligdamis ordered this to be built in the God’s honour in the 6th century B.C.

PAROS

Paros is located in the central Aegean Sea. It became known for its fine white marble. A must see is the bay Naoussa, a natural harbour, closed by a chain or boom in the ancient times. The three villages of Dragoulas, Marmara and Tsipidos, situated in an open plain on the eastern side of the island occupy the site of an ancient town. They are known together as the “villages of Kephalos” after the steep and lofty hill of Kephalos. On this hilltop stands the abandoned monastery of Agios Antonios (St. Anthony).

PATMOS

Patmos is a small volcanic island in the Aegean Sea. It is at the coast of Asia Minor, to the south of Samos and west of Miletus. The island of Patmos is famous in history as the place of St. John’s exile: “I John…… was in the island which is called Patmos, for the word of God and for the testimony of Jesus.” (Revelation 1:9); there according to general belief the Beloved Disciple wrote the Apocalypse, the imagery of which was part inspired by the scenery of the island. The spot where St. John was favored with his revelations is pointed out as a cave on the slope of the hill, half way between the shore and the modern town of Patmos.

SANTORINI

Santorini is today what remained after an enormous volcanic explosion which occurred some 3600 years ago at the height of the Minoan civilization destroying the earliest settlements on what was formerly a single island and leading to the creation of the current geological Caldera. Its spectacular physical beauty, along with a dynamic nightlife, has made the island one of Europe’s tourist hotspots. A giant central lagoon surrounded by high steep cliffs on three sides. The capital Fira, as well as Imerovigli and Oia –a must see- cling to the top of the cliff looking down on the lagoon.

PAXOI

Paxi or Paxoi and Antipaxoi or Antipaxos is the smallest island group within the Ionian Islands. In Greek it is a plural form. The largest islands are Paxos and nearby Antipaxos. Antipaxos is famous for its wine and two of the finest sand beaches in the Ionian Sea.

Food Menu Onboard

What food we serve on board our gulet cruises?

It’s important to work out a budget for your travels – it’s a good idea to have a clear understanding of your main expenses before you leave home, but it’s also vital to know the extra costs you can expect along the way too.

When booking your Sail in Greece cruise, you’ll need to account for extra expenses such as flights and travel insurance for example – and then there will be optional extras and drinks on board the ships. Extra expenses will vary depending on your requirements and therefore it is difficult to specify the exact amount of money that you can spend per day; however as a general rule, we suggest that you budget between €25 – €30 per day (£25 – £30 per day). This amount will adequately provide you with additional meals, drinks and optional.

And what about the drinks on board?

All of our ships offer fully-stocked bars and have a wide range of refreshing cocktails for those hot summer days lazing about on the topdeck. Unless you have specific dietary requirements, you cannot bring food or drink onboard the boat and you will need to purchase drinks from the ship’s bar. There are also available drinking packages for our private charter. Just consult us via email.

Below is an example of Sail in Greece drinks you can expect on our range of ships & cruises.

Please note: Prices are an estimate only. Each ship will have varying price lists and menu options. Up to date prices and menu items will be available onboard and can be checked with your crew once you join your Sail in Greece cruise.

 

 Main Dish  Salad  Appetizer
 Pasta Tomato Sause Potato Salad Potato Fries
