What's on the menu?

Aboard our sailboats and catamarans, you’ll find a central lounge complete with a fully-equipped kitchen, allowing you to channel your inner chef at sea. Occasionally, the skipper might whip up a special dish in the galley – just make sure to wash your hands, as these meals are finger-licking good!

We have yet to receive any complaints about the quality of the food on our boats, as our supplies come straight from the source (namely local farmers, fishermen…). Daily meals typically feature sun-ripened Greek tomatoes, creamy yogurt, tangy feta cheese, rich olives, and exceptional olive oil. Seafood lovers will delight in our fresh shellfish, prawns, and octopus, alongside crisp salads and classic Greek pita. With each bite, you’ll taste the authentic flavors that define Greek cuisine.
