Mediterranean
The cradle of charter sailing — from the Greek islands and Croatian coast to the Turkish Riviera, the Amalfi Coast, and the Balearics. Warm winds, ancient harbours, and cuisine worth sailing for.

PremiumAmalfi Coast & Capri
🇮🇹Italy
The Gulf of Naples arc from Sorrento to Positano, with Capri and Ischia offshore, where sailing plays second fiddle to coastline, cuisine, and the long Italian evening.
Mid-RangeAthens & the Saronic Gulf

The Saronic Gulf offers the shortest route from Athens to Greek island sailing, with Aegina, Poros, and car-free Hydra all within a day's reach of Alimos Marina.
PremiumBalearics (Ibiza & Formentera)
🇪🇸Spain
The western Balearics, where Ibiza's social energy meets Formentera's transparent shallows across a short channel that ranks among the Mediterranean's most beautiful day-sails.
PremiumBalearics (Mallorca & Menorca)
🇪🇸Spain
The eastern Balearics from Palma's cathedral harbour to Menorca's pristine calas, with well-equipped marinas, reliable summer thermals, and the deepest charter fleet in Spain.
Mid-RangeBodrum & the Gulf of Gokova
🇹🇷Turkey
The birthplace of the gulet and the centre of Turkey's charter industry, where the Gulf of Gokova's sheltered anchorages meet Bodrum's castle-crowned harbour.
PremiumCorsica
🇫🇷France
France's wildest island, where the granite west coast and the Scandola nature reserve contrast with the calm anchorages of the south and the fortress town of Bonifacio.
Mid-RangeCosta Brava
🇪🇸Spain
Catalonia's rugged coast from Roses to Blanes, where Salvador Dali's landscape meets cove-to-cove sailing and the Catalan table sets a high standard ashore.
Ultra-PremiumCote d'Azur
🇫🇷France
The French Riviera from Cannes to Saint-Tropez, with the Iles d'Hyeres offshore — a coast where the sailing competes with the waterfront dining for the crew's attention.
Mid-RangeCrete
🇬🇷Greece
Greece's largest island demands experienced crews, rewarding them with a rugged southern coast, Venetian harbours, and sailing conditions that test genuine seamanship.
Mid-RangeCyclades
🇬🇷Greece
The defining Greek island chain — Santorini, Mykonos, Paros, Naxos — with the meltemi wind that makes it as demanding as it is rewarding.
Mid-RangeDodecanese
🇬🇷Greece
The south-eastern Aegean chain from Rhodes to Patmos, within sight of the Turkish coast and offering a mix of medieval towns, volcanic landscapes, and open-water sailing.
PremiumDubrovnik & Southern Dalmatia
🇭🇷Croatia
Southern Dalmatia trades Split's bustle for a quieter arc of sailing, from the Elaphiti Islands to Mljet's national park and the former military island of Lastovo.
Mid-RangeGocek & Fethiye
🇹🇷Turkey
Turkey's Lycian coast at its most sheltered: the twelve islands of Gocek Bay, the blue lagoon at Oludeniz, and the Lycian rock tombs above Fethiye's harbour.
PremiumHvar & the Pakleni Islands
🇭🇷Croatia
Hvar pairs the Adriatic's liveliest harbour town with the Pakleni archipelago's chain of quiet pine-fringed anchorages, just minutes apart by dinghy.
Mid-RangeIonian Islands
🇬🇷Greece
Greece's most forgiving sailing ground: Corfu, Lefkada, Kefalonia, and Ithaca in sheltered Ionian waters with reliable light winds and short passages.
Mid-RangeKornati National Park
🇭🇷Croatia
Eighty-nine uninhabited islands of bare karst and deep blue channels, protected as a national park and navigated under sail with a permit and a good chart.

🇬🇷Greece
A Dodecanese gateway with direct flights, a compact charter base, and the Turkish coast of Bodrum visible across a narrow channel.
Budget-FriendlyLanguedoc-Roussillon
🇫🇷France
France's quieter Mediterranean shore, from Sete to Port-Vendres along the Languedoc coast, where the charter prices are gentler and the Catalan-French cuisine rewards a shore stop.
Mid-RangeLefkas
🇬🇷Greece
The Ionian's busiest charter base, connected to the mainland by bridge and to Preveza airport by a short drive, with flotilla routes south to Meganisi and Ithaca.
Mid-RangePula & Istria
🇭🇷Croatia
The north Adriatic's gentlest charter base, where Roman ruins meet Istrian hill towns and the Brijuni Islands national park sits just offshore.
Ultra-PremiumSardinia (Costa Smeralda)
🇮🇹Italy
North-east Sardinia's emerald coast and the Maddalena archipelago, where granite islands, translucent water, and the Porto Cervo set define Mediterranean luxury sailing.
Mid-RangeSardinia (South Coast)
🇮🇹Italy
Southern Sardinia's less-trafficked coast, from Cagliari east to Villasimius and west to the island of San Pietro, with fewer superyachts and clearer anchorages.
Mid-RangeSibenik & Krka
🇭🇷Croatia
Where the Krka River meets the Adriatic, Sibenik offers a natural gateway to the Kornati islands and a UNESCO-listed cathedral within walking distance of the marina.
Mid-RangeSicily (Aeolian Islands)
🇮🇹Italy
A volcanic arc north of Sicily — Stromboli's night eruptions, Lipari's pumice beaches, Salina's capers — reached by open-sea passages that reward confident navigation.
Mid-RangeSicily (Egadi & West Coast)
🇮🇹Italy
Western Sicily from the Arab-Norman city of Trapani to the Egadi Islands, where the tuna mattanza once defined the economy and the anchorages remain uncrowded.

🇭🇷Croatia
Croatia's charter capital, where the Adriatic opens into a constellation of islands from Brac to Vis, all within day-sail reach of Split's harbour.

Seven islands scattered off the Tuscan coast — Elba, Giglio, Capraia — accessible from Punta Ala or Piombino, with national park anchorages and Napoleonic history.
Mid-RangeZadar & North Dalmatia
