Ionian Cruise | 8 Days

The Ionian Islands are the wettest of the Greek islands so forget about the typical rugged, rocky coasts of Greece. The Ionian Sea will amaze you with its lush forests, green hills covered with olive groves, crystal clear waters and sparkling white beaches. You can find this descriptive scenery hidden among the Sivota – Mourtos Islands, which are located south of Corfu’s mainland. We arrive here on the second day and while we are at this island complex, we need to visit its highlights, the blue lagoon and the famous Papanikolis cave. Later into the day, don’t miss out on strolling through the traditional Marina village and before you leave, be sure to grab something to eat and drink from the numerous idyllic tavern-lined tavernas which are located on the marina, above the shore.

Meals Included:

Breakfast, Lunch

Parga has been described as one of the most beautiful villages in Greece and undoubtingly, as the most beautiful in the Ionian Sea. With its two crystal clear bays, each on both sides of the village, its famous Venetian castle, and its numerous bars and water sports facilities, Parga is a must-see for your summer holidays. Grab your hats and sunglasses, put on plenty of sunscreen and prepare to create some forever-lasting Greek summer memories at this beautiful, picturesque destination.

Note: Due to Parga’s undeveloped-port infrastructure, there is not plenty of available space on the marina, which means, that in case the gulet does not manage to dock at the port, you will need to use a water taxi, to reach the shore. The cost, for this, is not included in the overall price package!

The small island of Antipaxos is a true hidden gem and will be a one-of-a-kind experience. While here we fuel up with lunch, before stopping for some coastal relaxation at some of the island’s most secluded and tranquil bays which are home to the famous Greek beaches of Voutoumi and Vrika. You will have the chance to snorkel in the turquoise waters and feel the pebbles under your feet. Take a walk amongst the clifftop and visit one of the three main towns – Gaios, Loggos or Lakka. Later in the night, we dine at a pop-up beachfront tavern, on a private beach off the public-main coast and admire the sparkling night sky from our gulet’s deck.

Note: The late-night dinner is not included in the price.

While in the Old Town, make some time to grab some Greek local souvenirs, or visit some museums and churches.
