  • Sailing in the Sporades
    The Northern Sporades offer pine-clad islands, clear water and short, confidence-building hops. Sheltered channels temper the famed Meltemi, while well-spaced ports make passage planning straightforward. Start from Skiathos, step across to Skopelos’ amphitheatre harbour, then push on to Alonissos and the National Marine Park for quiet anchorages and wildlife. This is Greek island sailing at its greenest and most forgiving, with enough wind to keep things lively and enough refuge to keep them comfortable. Expect stern‑to town quays, sandy anchorages, and just the right balance of bustle and calm.
