Flotilla sailing in Turkey, Greece, Italy, France and Croatia!

Flotilla sailing for company and assistance

Flotilla sailing offers the ideal combination of the privacy and flexibility of chartering your own yacht with the benefit of great local knowledge, technical support and advice from our experienced flotilla crew, who are always on hand when needed.

What is a flotilla?

A flotilla is a group of yachts sailing in company accompanied by a flotilla skipper on the lead yacht. He organizes regular meetings for all skippers. He will inform you about the weather conditions, the route, possible lunchtime anchorages and the techniques of Mediterranean mooring. 

If you like to have some information or help, you can still check with him on the VHF. You have almost all the advantages of independent cruising, plus the support of experienced help if you need it.

You're the skipper of your own yacht, and each day's activities are yours to decide - you can sail hard, or simply idle towards the next port enjoying the sun and scenery on the way.

Once you arrive at the meeting point your lead crew will help you to moor and secure a safe spot in your new anchorage. They are your link with local people and facilities and attractions onshore. You can get information about sightseeing, shopping, and nice restaurants. Your fleet leader feels responsible for your enjoyment of the holiday and the smooth running of the flotilla.

Less experienced skippers appreciate the help, advice and support for the flotilla skipper.

More experienced skippers join a flotilla for the social part. It's a popular choice for couples, friends and families.

During school holidays there are usually other families on the flotillas. Children and teenagers love sailing holidays- there is plenty going on afloat and ashore. And the constant thrill of new destinations means there's lots of exploring to be done.
