Sailing or motoring ?
The common question among the guests that hire a skipper is , when he will open the sails so they can take photos or even participate in sailing. Some they are keen to help and they really enjoy it and some , they sit relaxed in their couch , reading , while the skipper , remains on the helm without really knowing if the guests will eventually , want to sail or not.
Sailing means teamwork and appropriate sailing conditions .
Means that everybody should have a role in the genoa or the main sail winches to get prepared for tacking. The skipper gives all the signals to make people , motivated and co-ordinated . Wind also plays a major role in sailing . If we really need to move with the sails from one destination to the other , we should have at least 12-13 knots of wind . In the Ionian this is not an every day case . Most of the times we need to use the engine .
Our sailing route
- South Corfu , Petriti (port or bay)
- Gaios , Paxos (port)
- Mogonisi , Paxos (port or bay)
- Mainland , Parga (bay)
- Lakka , Paxos (port or bay)
- Mainland , Sivota (port)
Petriti is a fish village in South Corfu . All the commercial fishing boats are besed there and spread the fish in Corfu market .
It is a quiet place with nature playing the leading role , with man just watching the natural scenery .
Few good fish taverns around the port and a beach near for a swim .
The port hasn’t much space so most of the yachts , just anchor in the large bay .
Gaios the capital of Paxos islands and its main port . Is connected with Corfu island by a flying dolphin and ferry and also with the mainland by ferry .
Its one of our favourite stops and for sure you are going to love this place . Its crowded and very popular with its bars and restaurants for all tastes .
It has also great market of handmade products like clothes , shoes and jewellery.
Mogonisi , a lot smaller than Gaios is only 1.5 NM South of Gaios.
Much more quiet , has a small dock , which is being taken care from the owners of the Mongonisi , taverna , there . They offer good fun wih their dancing events and certainly they have the best view , there .
There is a small beach next to the taverna and a bar , called “Carnayo” in the end of the concrete .
Our next destination would be , Parga which is in the mainland about 2 hrs from Mogonisi .
A place with a great history and also very popular and crowded in the summer .
There is a large bay where we anchor and then a sea taxi comes and takes all to Parga Old Town in front of the main port .
Very nice bars , restarants where , literally you can find any kind of food , there .
Our pick is Stefanos , taverna which is next to the Castle of Parga , having the best view of the bay we are anchored .
Our next stop is Sivota in the mainland . Great swimming spots during the day and we dock in the port at night . Good food and drinks but also a good market of shops with local handmade , products .
How we organise our Provisions ?
Organising the provisions , means that we should decide , how many meals are we going to have , every day and which of these meals are we going to have them on board or perhaps in a nice taverna when we have the chance to be in a port or marina .
In our experience as skippers , a breakfast and a lunch usually are on-board meals and the dinner is somewhere , outside . Whether we are in a nice port or a marina or in a nice bay (which means we need to use the inflatable dinghy) we can always choose a nice taverna to have our dinner .
All ports and marinas have super markets , bakeries for our everyday provisioning . We also have a lot of bays that we can anhor and go ashore in a tiny dock , where we can also visit a place that might have a small grocery store or a kiosk (kiosks in Greece have sometimes all the basics that a grocery store has)
Best tips for a relaxed and a well planned sailing holiday
- Distances on board during the day shouldn’t be more than 3 hours per day , on a daily basis
- Ports get very busy during the summer from a very early stage of the day . If we really need to be in a port for provisiongs , Fuel or Water we must sacrifice our noon long swimm to get a place there
- Sailing needs time to experiment , especially if the wind is very low for sailing . Also most of the times , the winds picks by the time , we need to be in a port , early noon . Generally , its a good plan to spend the night in a bay if we want to sail or we must be prepared to sacrifice sailing and motor if we need to get a spot in the port . If we do sacrifice sailing we can still relaxe and have a nice swimm instead .
- The best time to book your holidays is between early June and early October . The weather isn’t hot , not too many yachts around , you can swimm in warm waters and the tavernas are still open to welcome you !
