Sailing around Corfu
I really enjoyed sailing around Corfu with Jon. Very interesting catamaran which is maintained in very good condition. Jon is a very experienced skipper with a broad knowledge und knows the Ionian sea in all details. I can highly recommend sailing with Jon.

I’ve had the pleasure to sail on this beautiful catamaran on two occasions….a fantastic and memorable experience. The vessel is safe, well appointed and maintained to a very high standard. She also sails extremely well. The skipper has extensive knowledge of the Ionian area. We visited many beautiful towns and bays, both the main tourist areas and places only the locals go to. Also some great swimming and snorkeling areas with unique sea-life. He is also very generous in sharing his extensive knowledge of sailing and boat maintenance. I am definitely a better sailor for having this experience. I can thoroughly recommend this sailing adventure around Corfu.

An unforgettable sailing experience in the Ionian Sea
Our sailing trip in the Ionian Sea was absolutely fantastic! The skipper was extremely experienced and knowledgeable — not only did we feel completely safe the entire time, but we also learned so much about sailing. He took the time to explain everything clearly and encouraged us to take part in navigating and handling the boat, which made the trip both educational and fun. At the same time, there was plenty of time to simply relax and enjoy life on the water - swimming or snorkeling in the beautiful sea. We even spotted dolphins and sea turtles along the way — a truly magical experience! Evenings on board were just as enjoyable — we shared great meals, played board games, and watched the sunset from the deck. The boat itself is spacious, clean, and very comfortable. All in all, it was the perfect combination of adventure, relaxation, and discovery. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to experience the beauty of the Ionian Sea with a professional and passionate sailor.
