Yacht Charter Corfu

Corfu Town is the municipal town and harbour on the east coast of Corfu, also known as Kerkira. Lying off the west coast of Greece in the Ionian Island complex, it is the main charter base for sailing in the Ionian Sea. The Old Town of Corfu city is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Venetian buildings and quaint side streets are characteristic of the old town and there is a 16^th century fort overlooking it all.

The city is full of interesting shops, excellent restaurants and busy bars. There are also some very good museums and many, many churches. During the summer there are nightly musical performances of Sound & Light. The beginning of your sailing holiday can’t get much better than this.

Just 12 km away is Gouvia Marina, the largest marina in Greece. World renowned, it is a popular place for sailing yachts and superyachts from all over. To the northwest of Corfu lie the Diapontian Islands - Mathraki, Othonoi, and Erikoussa.

A mixture of sheltered coastal sailing and more adventurous open passages make Corfu a great sailing destination for sailors of all abilities. Further south are the rest of the Ionian Islands, seven altogether:  Zakynthos, Lefkada, Icatha, Paxi, Antipaxi, Kythera and Antikythera.
