The Dodecanese is a sailor's paradise of more than 163 islands and islets, all of them connected by brisk winds and line-of-sight navigation. You'll find each island a world of uncounted beaches, bays and coves. Seclusion isn't hard to find - only 26 islands are inhabited. Every interior village exudes a friendly atmosphere and a charming blend of architectural styles of eastern and western cultures. Each of these history-rich islands seem to greet you with classical ruins, a crusader's castle and a waterfront of charming tavernas offering fresh seafood.
| Sailing Conditions: Predictable winds, calm seas and easy line of sight navigation are prevalent throughout, from the Saronic Gulf and Pelpoponese coast in the West, to the Dodecanese and along the Turkish coast in the Southeast. The Cyclades offer deep blue open-water runs. In the summer, the dominant Meltemi wind blows from the North from 10-15 knots over the Aegean, with stronger winds of up to 25 knots over the middle and northern archipelago and afternoon gusts in the lee of the islands.
