Mediterranean Destinations

Italy

With approximately 4,660 miles of coastline, a yacht adventure in Italy is bound to surprise you around each corner- lose yourself in the artistic, fishing village of Portofino, trace the Amalfi Coast, before continuing to the glamorous island of Capri and picturesque Postitano. Cruise to the shopping and jet-set hangouts of Sardinia and timeless Sicily.

Amalfi Coast

Greece

The southern Aegean is the most famous island chain of all of the Greek Islands and is where the bulk of tourists flock during the summer. This region is home to the Cyclades, Dodecanese, Ikaria and Samos sailing regions, but in simple layman’s terms, this is where you will find the famous islands of Mykonos and Santorini.  Just south of Athens, you will find the Argo Saronic sailing region. The islands in this region are a lot closer together, with the prevailing weather also being a lot gentler than that of the open seas of the Aegean region. The Ionian Sea is also known for its easy sailing conditions.  And if you really want to escape the crowds, then the fourth major sailing area of the northern Aegean is your ideal Greek Island paradise. Although the cruising is just as great as in the other Greek island regions, the northern Aegean has simply been overlooked due to its distance from the major jumping-off point of Athens

The inviting coastal waters of its southwestern coast are so warm and deeply blue, with many secluded islands, and the small ports here offer a luxurious welcome that’s second to none.
