Ionian Sea is a yachtsman’s paradise with the gentle, calm, clear waters making it one of the safest sailing areas in the world. Sailing holidays in the Ionian Islands are ideal either for the novice or for expert sailors due to the geographical position combined with the beauty of the landscape, the many anchorages in the region, the mild climate and the existence of an international airport.
The island of Kythira is famous for its beaches, albeit most of these are only accessible by boats since the inland roads rarely traverse the rocky parts of the inland terrain. Despite its location near the Cyclades it is an Ionian island. Few yacht charters arrive on this interesting island as it is simply too far from the nearest bases of the yacht rental companies, making it a perfect destination for those seeking sailing holidays off the beaten track. The capital is Chora, which is located on the south of the island where the port of Vatika is located at Ag. Pelagia. The main harbour is the newly built at the village of Diakofti on the east coast. The other harbour is Kapsali located on the south coast of the island.
