Everything went according to plan and all of us returned safely and without any damage to the boat.
We thoroughly enjoyed the experience and would consider doing it again.
Mr Lazaro chartered a Lagoon 380 catamaran (Stardust) from Preveza with Skipper..

I can honestly say it was the best holiday I have ever had.
With the feeling of complete freedom and having nowhere to be
at no particular time it was the best way to relax and unwind.
We went into the week with a vague plan of what we wanted to see
and do but with a healthy sense of adventure and spontaneity.
We were able to visit places that were even more beautiful and
idyllic than we ever imagined and even a couple of
spots that were new to Patrik as well.
I cannot wait to come back to Greece and
see what we discover next time!
David and friends chartered s/y Anastasia,
with skipper Patrik,
from Mykonos in September.

Best Regards

About Us
 |
 |
Odyssey Sailing is a family run yacht charter agency based in Volos*, an important commercial city in central mainland Greece, enclosed by the beautiful waters of the Gulf of Volos (Pagasitikos) and close to the Sporades islands (Skiathos, Skopelos, Alonissos and the smaller islands of the national marine park), the Pelion peninsula and the island of Evia. The area was made famous by the film musical Mamma Mia, filmed in these parts. Now with regular flights from many European cities direct to Volos airport, and an increasing number of idyllic anchorages and tranquil bays, more and more people are discovering this relatively unspoilt and delightful sailing area. For those flying via Athens, Thessaloniki or Skiathos we can arrange direct transfers to the port.
We were among the first yacht owners to offer professional charter yachts from Volos, back in the early ‘90s. Odyssey Sailing opened in 2001 and is licensed and bonded by EOT: The Greek Ministry of Tourism, and we are a member of the Hellenic Yacht Brokers Association. As yacht brokers, we work directly with individual yacht owners who meet our high standards for quality and reliability. All yachts are individually inspected, maintained and licensed as professional charter yachts. As boat owners ourselves we know what makes a quality yacht and what is needed for a superb holiday. We have always aimed to provide our guests with a personal service that ensures memorable sailing holidays.
We love to include your thoughts, comments, and photographs on our guests' album and feedback pages. The Greeks have a reputation for good hospitality, that we have to live up to.
* In Greek mythology, the ambitious Jason set off on his journey to find the golden fleece from Volos in his ship, the Argo, which features in our logo.
