Learn to sail this summer in Greece

Sunvil Sailing is offering a week’s live-aboard flotilla holiday, with learn-to-sail tuition for novices, departing 11 and 18 May from Lefkas island in the Greek Ionian Sea at just £179 per person excluding flights and transfers. For those preferring to take Sunvil’s all-inclusive package the price rises to £539 with return flights from London Gatwick and transfers in Greece.

These early season trips are ideal for singles or couples wishing to share-a-yacht. Beginners, or those with limited experience, will literally learn the ropes under the watchful eye of a qualified instructor while experienced sailors will crew their own yachts in the flotilla. The social side can be lively in the evenings when all the yachts moor up in port together for dinner ashore.

The live-aboard accommodation with or without tuition is based on two sharing a cabin and there is a contribution towards an onboard kitty for yacht damage waiver, fuel, a souvenir chart and other items including refreshments on board for those on a learn-to-sail yacht.
