Flotilla Greece, from Lefkas / Preveza and now also
from Athens!The flotilla sailing
holidays start on Saturday and end on Saturday. Not
later than 17.00 hours is your yacht waiting for you to
board. Of course during the check-in everything is
explained. Check-out is often on Friday the day before
departure. Of course you can stay on the yacht,
overnight till next morning.
What to bring with you?
Besides your swimwear and shorts we recommend for the
evenings at least a pair of trousers and a sweater for
example / fleece jacket with you. In all seasons it is
possible that sometimes a drop of water will fall (in
the low season of course some more). A sailing jacket
can be good enough. Because there're simply no big
lockers on a yacht that accommodate large bags, folding
bags are the best solution for the luggage.
How is the weather?
The Ionian zone has perfect conditions for sailing
enthusiasts. The sun is shining and the wind is always
there, the strength varies between 2 - 5 Beaufort. In
the mornings the wind is less and in the afternoons
usually picks up.
Below is an overview of the weather conditions to give
you an idea what to expect.
