The Islands we will visit this year are Syros (Finikas), Paros (Parikia) and Kythnos (Loutra). The local authorities, associations, nautical clubs and residents of these islands will welcome us in their traditional custom, including entertainment and acquainting us with their traditions and the monuments of their home. During this period (early July) in the Aegean - especially in the Cyclades Island cluster - the weather conditions are usually favourable.
The Cyclades cluster is considered one of the finest vacation destinations worldwide, and one of the favorite sailing destinations.
The region combines natural beauty, clear deep-blue waters, traditional hospitality, and a highly-developed infrastructure for pleasure boats, as well as the characteristic Greek naval tradition, attracting both Greek and foreign visitors every year.
