Sailing course for all levels in the turquoise waters of the Cyclades

After a morning briefing and a few practice runs with the sailboat in Finikas Bay, it's time to cast off for a roughly 6-hour sail. You'll head southeast, skirting the north coast of Paros, before gliding between Paros and Naxos through a narrow channel often buffeted by the wind. This first crossing allows you to familiarize yourself with sailing in the Aegean Sea while enjoying already spectacular scenery. At the end of the day, you'll reach Schinoussa, one of the more secluded islands of the Small Cyclades, ideal for a peaceful and authentic stopover.

You'll depart Schinoussa in the morning for a sailing trip among the Small Cyclades, a string of wild islands with turquoise anchorages. Depending on the conditions and the group's wishes, a swimming stop may be planned in one of these secluded coves, perfect for a peaceful break. In the afternoon, you'll set sail for Amorgos, the iconic island made famous by the film The Big Blue . Arriving in the late afternoon, you'll discover a rugged and unspoiled island, ideal for a relaxing evening at the dock or at anchor, facing its spectacular cliffs.

Departing from Amorgos for a short sail towards the Small Cyclades. The day unfolds in two parts: a morning sail followed by a lunch break at anchor in a sheltered cove with crystal-clear waters. In the afternoon, you set sail again for Katokoufounis Bay, on a secluded island with a raw, natural charm. Anchoring is dropped in this peaceful setting, perfect for a relaxing evening, culminating in dinner at a traditional taverna nestled by the water, a true haven of simplicity and authenticity.

An early start for a long sail towards Sifnos, with conditions often ideal for enjoying the thrill of sailing. En route, weather permitting, you'll stop at Despotiko, a wild islet south of Antiparos, perfect for lunch at anchor in a secluded setting. In the afternoon, you'll continue your journey to Sifnos, a hilly island renowned for its peaceful atmosphere and authenticity. At the end of the day, you'll drop anchor in Faros Bay, a small fishing port with understated charm, perfect for a relaxing evening after a beautiful day at sea.

You leave Sifnos and head north towards Serifos, an island with dramatic landscapes and a pristine atmosphere. After a few hours of sailing, you reach Livadhi Bay, dominated by an impressive Chora perched high above. Accessible on foot or by bus, this ancient town offers breathtaking sea views and charming narrow streets to explore at the end of the day. The evening continues at anchor in the bay, ideal for a peaceful night under the stars, after exploring the village at your leisure or relaxing on board.

For this final day at sea, you'll set sail for Finikas, with an expected arrival in the afternoon. This crossing marks the end of a wonderful loop through the Cyclades. Once moored in the port, it's time to clean the deck and enjoy a friendly debriefing to relive the week's highlights. The rest of the day is free: you can explore Ermoupoli, the elegant capital of the Cyclades with its rich Venetian heritage, or take advantage of the beaches around Finikas for a final swim. The evening is yours to enjoy a last taverna or simply relax on the dock.

After one last night on board, it's time to pack up and leave the sailboat at 9 a.m. This voyage, dictated by the winds and stopovers, is drawing to a close. A warm farewell to the rest of the crew and the skipper concludes this maritime interlude in the Cyclades.
