The ultimate in social sailing is in a flotilla. A great option for couples, singles and groups of friends with a taste for adventure. A holiday with Sunvil Sailing is an informal, relaxed and unique experience. This is a holiday with a difference, seeing somewhere new every day without having to pack and unpack or pay extra travel or hotel expenses. Sailing with many other yachts, your lead crews will sail with you and provide a flexible itinerary to follow that includes suggested anchorages to visit during the day or to moor for the night, ensuring you see the best of your chosen sailing area.
But, I've never sailed before?
Am I too young or too old? Too fat or too thin? Too tall or too short?
The simple answer is that people of all walks of life go on sailing holidays. We are there to show you how to do it and gain the most out of your experience
while at the same time having fun learning something new, or just brushing up on a passion that you enjoy.
There are no hard and fast rules about coming on a sailing holiday and our teams are more than experienced to be able to take you to another level while maintaining your safety, fun and comfort. With many routes to choose from, there is always some self discovery while on this type of holiday.
In Greece, our different sailing holidays operate from the Hotel Armonia
near Nidri on Lefkas - one of the Ionian Islands - where we have our own pontoon directly outside the hotel on which our yachts are moored
There's also the option to meet up at agreed destinations for dinner and beach picnics and to take part in fun regattas and other social events.
Many flotilla enthusiasts say that this is what makes a flotilla trip so special - meeting people with similar interests and sharing the excitement of discovering new sailing areas together. Some people return to our base at Nidri year after year to explore the same sailing area, keep in touch with flotilla friends and often to book future holidays together. Others prefer to try a new area each year - with many varied routes to choose from - there is always somewhere new to explore.
Something about the Destinations?
We're passionate about creating the perfect holiday experience for you. Whether you are after all out action on the water or prefer quiet relaxation and rejuvenation, our sailing holidays have something to suit everyone.
Choose from one of four destinations. Greece, our main venue, Turkey, Croatia and Malta. All four countries are distinctly different. However all offer unrivalled activities, distinctive cuisine and great accommodation for both those sailing and those who prefer to keep their feet on terra-firma.
Lefkas is often hailed as the 'sailing capital' of Greece, and with good reason.
The sheltered waters, favourable wind conditions and safe anchorages, in the heart of some stunning island scenery, make this part of the Ionian Sea ideal for both the novice and experienced sailor.
