Yacht Charter the Ionian Islands

The Ionian Islands lie off the west coast of Greece, and they are greener and gentler than the Aegean. Distances between Corfu, Paxos, Lefkada, Meganisi, Ithaca and Kefalonia are short, and the prevailing summer breeze is lighter than the meltemi, which makes the area comfortable for families and first charters.

Guests charter here for short, sheltered passages, pine-backed bays for swimming, small harbour towns for dinner ashore and calmer summer winds than the Aegean. A yacht keeps all of it within reach without daily transfers, and the crew shapes each day around the weather, the sea state and how much time you want at anchor rather than under way.

Lund Group arranges private charters in the Ionian Islands on motor yachts, sailing yachts, catamarans and full superyachts. We present only what genuinely suits your dates, guest numbers and pace, confirm every detail with the central agent before it is proposed, and never describe a yacht, berth or shore arrangement as available until it is held in writing.

The Ionian season runs from roughly May to October, with July and August the busiest. The wind pattern is usually a moderate afternoon breeze, so conditions are more predictable than in the Cyclades throughout the summer.
