Sailing in the Ionian Sea from Corfu with Cleopatra

direction

What better way to experience this unsurpassed taste of freedom, elegance and style while allowing you to explore a variety of destinations if you combine it with a cruise! The "Cleopatra" boat, anchored in Corfu's Old Fortress in Mandraki, one can easily explore the sights of the city and live life in the harbor! Take a glass of wine in the evening and watch the stars on the deck of the boat, enjoy the morning views of the fortress, live like a sailor for a day!, sailing in the Ionian Sea.

Corfu Town, capital of the island of Corfu, is the largest port in the Greek Ionian and a major transport hub for ferries across the Adriatic to Italy and to the Greek mainland at Igoumenitsa.

Its international airport is also one of the busiest in Greece, with daily flights to most European destinations.

The island has long been popular with European tourists, especially British as a consequence of British rule in the 19th century, and Corfu Town reflects this long tradition, with more tavernas, shops and cafes per square mile than almost anywhere else in Greece.

Its architecture is a hectic mix of Venetian, classical and British colonial and in spite of the huge numbers of tourists that throng the town’s streets in summer, Corfu Town is still a delight to explore, with its narrow, sleepy passageways lined with atmospheric Italianate apartment blocks.

The visiting yachtsman is perhaps less well served than the land tourist, with limited berthing opportunities consisting of the grimy east basin of the commercial harbour, the cramped, yacht club-managed basins of Mandraki on the N side of the Venetian castle and NAOK on the S side, a couple of reasonably sheltered anchorages and the marina at Gouvia three miles to the NW.
