Discover greece by boat.

Greece, a land of ancient myths, gorgeous landscapes, and blue waters, a paradise for yacht charters. Greece is known for its rich history and culture, and numerous islands spread out across the Aegean and Ionian Seas. With over 6,000 islands , Greece offers endless sailing opportunities, making it a dream destination for yacht lovers.

Whether you're a seasoned sailor or a first-time boater, it offers diverse sailing experiences suitable for everyone. It allows you to immerse yourself in the beauty of the Greek islands and coastlines, allowing you to create your itinerary and sail at your own rhythm.

The tranquil waters, steady winds, and well-established routes ensure an enjoyable sailing trip. The Meltemi wind, a seasonal northerly wind, is especially favourable for sailing in the Aegean , providing an excellent Greek experience.  Rent a boat in Kos or rent a boat in Lefkada to sail among the charming Dodecanese Islands.

For those seeking a more relaxed journey, the Ionian Sea offers gentle breezes, and lush green landscapes. For instance, boat rental in Kefalonia ,  boat rental in Mykonos , boat rental in Corfu are the perfect opportunity to have a relaxing sailing experience.

Rent a boat to sail along the Greek coastline and discover all the extraordinary places and landscapes created by the union of the land and sea. Vourvourou boat rental , for example, is a very good choice for exploring the majestic coastline of northern Greece as well as the islands of the Eastern Aegean Sea .

What type of boat is best for Greece?

When choosing the suitable boat for your yacht charter in Greece, think about the time you’ll spend on board. RIBS and motorboats are good choices for a few days, and you can rent them by the day . For a more extended charter of a week or more, you should consider a catamaran or a yacht , where you’ll have all the necessary amenities to make your stay more comfortable.

A sailboat is the best option if you’re keen on a more traditional sailing experience . However, they aren’t recommended for inexperienced sailors or people prone to seasickness, as they can be unstable. Whichever yacht you choose, you will have the holiday of your dreams in Greece! Here is a quick overview of the available boats on Click&Boat in Greece:
