The peninsula of Chalkidiki and its string of islands, the archipelago of the Northern Sporades (Skiathos, Skopelos, Alonissos and Skyros), the Aegean islands of the North (Thassos and Samothrace), and the Eastern Sporades (Limnos, Agios Efstratios, Lesvos, Chios etc.) are all remarkable destinations that offer excellent sailing conditions as the winds are generally moderate, at around 5-20 knots throughout the season. Once you have defined your objectives, a suggestion of routes will be offered by our team.

  • Nikiti – Port Marmaras: 11 nautical miles. A small port with floating pontoons and few berths available. It is best to dock at the marina of Porto Carras.
  • Nikiti – small creeks of Porto Carras: 11 nautical miles. Just after the hotel of Porto Carras, easily visible from the sea and its marina, there are small coves with turquoise waters, well protected from the wind.
    Small creeks of Porto Carras – Porto Koufo: 11 nautical miles. Throughout the journey, we must sail off the islets of Spalathronission. Porto Koufo is the best natural harbour in the whole Aegean Sea. It is sheltered from all weather conditions.
  • Porto Koufo – Gulf of Sykia: 16 nautical miles. The Gulf of Sykia is quite large with adequate depths at its centre where you can anchor easily. The waters there are clear with a sandy seabed that provides good anchorage. You can find taverns on the beach. From there, it is easy to go to the island of Limnos if that is your destination. Gulf of Sykia – The island of Diaporos: 20 nautical miles. There’s no particular difficulty along the route, the waters are clear and the depths are suitable for anchoring. You can swim and remotely anchor in different beaches such as Platanitsi, Kavourotripes, Armenistis, Zografou and Manassou. The island of Diaporos provides anchorage protected by any kind of weather.
  • The island of Diaporos – the island of Amouliani: 15 nautical miles. You can swim in Alikes (Gulf of Tsarki). In the main port of the island there is no access to water or electricity. The Amouliani village is worth a visit. You can combine a visit to the island for the day with a return to Ormos Panagias for the night. At Ormos Panagias on the left side as you enter, there is a fairly new marina with floating pontoons where you can find a berth. Go stern or bows to a pontoon / dock.
  • Ormos Panagias – Gulf of Sykia. We suggest you cross the Gulf of Sykia to sail along the coastline of Mount Athos and admire its famous monasteries closely.

Note: The Shipping Act (Maritime Law) prohibits any stop and anchoring at any point of the coastline of Mount Athos or approaching at less than 500 meters. If however you wish to visit, access is only available to men with an authorization issued by the office of Mount Athos at Ouranoupoli.
