The Sporades sailing itinerary is ideal for those who want to get away from busy cities and crowds and experience sea and nature at its best. There little has changed over the years: you can still find stunning vistas void of human touch. Located east in the Aegean Sea, the area has been home to numerous groups throughout history, which you can learn about on our Sporades sailing itinerary.
The Sporades consist of 24 islands in the Aegean Sea. Four of these islands are completely free of human residents, you’ll only find gorgeous scenery and empty beaches. Much of the area is considered a national park, and guests are encouraged to explore the area while leaving things carefully preserved behind them. The largest and most populated island is Skopelos, which has several villages and an opportunity to experience island life on a Sporades sailing itinerary.
The archipelago is also home to a number of historic sites, which you can witness on a Sporades sailing itinerary. Once the home of neolithic peoples to members of the Ottoman Empire, you’ll find sunken cities, ruins, and almost-forgotten monasteries ready to visit and discover. The Sporades offer a bit of adventure and a chance to rest from modern life. This is a slightly more challenging Sporades sailing itinerary for those with a few sailing trips already under their belt (Level 3).
There are actually various ways you can reach our Sporades sailing itinerary. If you are flying internationally, you can search for flights to the international airport of Skiathos; it is quite small and mainly works with charter flights, however, there are frequent connections especially during spring and summer. An alternative route would be to fly to the bigger international airport of Thessaloniki and from there take a flying dolphin to Skiathos.
