Kalamos Flotilla in Greece

A one-week Kalamos flotilla holiday, with fantastic scenery, beautiful beaches, traditional villages and a laid-back schedule, is perfect for families, inexperienced flotilla sailors and skippers whose skills are a tad rusty.

With short distances between stops, easy line-of-sight navigation and a sheltered sailing area, Kalamos flotilla sailing is Greece at its most relaxed.

On a Kalamos flotilla holiday, explore the vibrant underwater life with your snorkel, walk in shaded olive groves and experience the authentic, unspoiled Greece of picturesque towns and villages set against pine-covered hillsides that have changed little in hundreds of years.

Ideal for sailors with only a small amount of previous sailing experience and well suited to those looking to improve their skills, Kalamos flotilla sailing in the calm waters of the Southern Ionian Sea is perfect for anyone looking for a relaxed sailing holiday in a beautiful cruising area encompassing the islands of Meganissi and Kalamos.

During the summer season, winds are generally north-westerly, in the range of 10 to 15 knots, and there are gentle morning breezes from the south. Summer temperatures range from 23 – 33 C.
