Unforgettable yachting holidays in Sporades area
The Sporades offer green islands, clear water, and short hops. Base in Skiathos or Volos. Summer winds are steadier and softer than the Cyclades. Routes suit families and mixed crews. Anchorages hold well in sand.
Choose bareboat or a crewed catamaran. We plan routes, moorings, and fuel stops. Briefings cover marine park rules, no-anchor zones, and fallback harbors. In high season, reserve berths and arrive early afternoon.

What you can expect to see
Skiathos and Koukounaries
Start from Skiathos Town with full services and easy provisioning. Day-sail to Koukounaries for a wide sandy bay and clear water. Stop at Tsougrias islet for lunch and a swim. Visit Lalaria on the north side only in settled weather. Swell can build there. Return to Skiathos Town or anchor in quieter coves on the south coast.
Skopelos, Panormos, and Agnontas
Skopelos Town gives good shelter and shore power. Loutraki on the west is a practical stop after Skiathos. Panormos is a deep, protected bay with sand patches. Drop plenty of chain and set well. Agnontas offers a calm evening and a short walk to tavernas. Stafylos and Kastani work as day stops for swimming when winds ease.
Alonissos and the Marine Park
Sail to Patitiri for water and supplies. Steni Vala is a favorite for a quiet night and easy shore access. Follow the Alonissos and Northern Sporades Marine Park zones. Some areas restrict anchoring and fishing. Kyra Panagia’s Planitis Bay has a narrow entrance and strong gusts inside. Enter in daylight and check depth. Peristera gives clear sand patches and good holding. Watch for wildlife and keep speeds low near protected shores.
