Greece

Greece, with over 6,000 islands and islets—around 200 of them inhabited—is one of the most popular sailing destinations in Europe. Its position between the Aegean and Ionian seas offers a wide range of sailing conditions and experiences.

The Mediterranean climate, steady summer winds, and almost 16,000 kilometres of coastline make Greece attractive to sailors who want varied routes without long passages. Many islands are within a day’s sail from each other, so you can keep your days short and flexible.

The sailing season runs from April to October, with peak conditions from late May to mid-September. The Meltemi wind dominates the Aegean during summer—strong and reliable, but not always beginner-friendly. The Ionian has milder conditions, making it better for relaxed sailing.

Along the way, you’ll pass fishing villages, ancient ruins, and plenty of places to dock and resupply. Expect clear water, decent holding, and small harbours where you can moor just a few metres from a taverna.

Sailing in Greece also means avoiding high marina fees. Most berths are on municipal quays or in small ports where fees are modest, and services—while basic—usually cover what you need.

It’s no surprise more and more crews are choosing to charter a yacht and explore Greece by sea rather than stick to the mainland.

But with so many islands, where do you begin?
