Greek Galavanting
Straight from the tiny bays and beaches of Lefkas.
The best spots, stops and places to plop in and around Lefkas islands. Straight from our latest charter clients themselves, these tips & tricks will certainly start you on your way to the best charter yet.
Join Matt & Nikki on the Lagoon 42 as they cruise through the Ionian from our Lefkas base for 7 nights.
Things you will have wished you packed:
Baby/Talcum powder - covering yourself in powder after rinsing off the salt is the only way to actually stay dry. stop that dampness itch & sleep like a baby no matter how hot it gets.
Sarongs & Kimonos - great even for the guys. Throwing one over your shoulders to hide from the sun, or a quick cover up for going ashore.
Where should you stop along the way?
Kalamos
Just south East of Lefkada is ideal for ditching the crowds.
"The other spots along our route had a few houses and a restaurant or two, but I dig being alone out here"
- Matt Wilson
Sivota
Experience the tiny bay, white & blue houses and beautiful greek culture just as you imagined it. Sip cocktails at the local restaurants and just enjoy the view in this heavenly bay.

"We tried to combine seeing as much culture, small villages and some deserted areas as much as possible. There is nothing better than immersing yourself in a foreign place, but sometimes a deliciously empty bay of topaz water is all you need in life"
- Nikki Booth-Jones
