We chartered a Jaguar 27 with Sailing Holidays and spent 2 wonderful weeks sailing around the Ionian Sea, beginning in the South and finishing in the North. We met the boat in Sivota and from there we sailed to Vassiliki. Frikes, Fiscardo, Kastos, Spartahouri and Lefkas town in the South. Then on to Gaios, Lakka, Mongonisi, Two Rock Bay, Parga, Mourtos and Plataria in the North Ionian. We enjoyed a fabulous two weeks sailing around the Ionian with glorious weather every day and enough to wind to sail to each destination. We saw dolphins twice and even had the oppurtunity to practice a man overboard rescue when Kelly fell into the water whiilst sailing from Fiscardo to Kastos. The typically Greek towns were all beautifully unspoiled and not at all commercial. We were welcomed at a different taverna every night for delicious Greek food. All in all it was a fantastic way to spend two weeks and we will certainly be doing this again!
