Trip with many memories
The flight arrived in Athens from Stockholm and we were met by a transfer, which ND Sails had arranged for us. The transfer took us straight to the base of ND Sails at the port of Lavrio, a journey of about 40 minutes.
The van dropped us off at the pier and it was easy to find our yacht ‘Marla’ that would become our home and transportation for a week. Once on board, we were met by the skipper, who helped us settle in Marla’s four cabins. First, we reviewed the boat, its equipment and then our pre-ordered provisions arrived, which we had also organized via ND Sails.
Since we are unaccustomed sailors with very limited knowledge, we decided to have dinner at a local tavern in the home port. Our plan was to eat a breakfast on board and then head out to the Greek island world.
The skipper discussed and asked us about our thoughts and expectations and what we wanted to get out of the trip. Together we set up a sailing route, depending on the existing weather and wind. Our trip initially took us south for 2 days, then night sailing to the west. The skipper was experienced and took us safely through everything, including darkness, waves, wind. It was quite an experience to sail in the Cyclades and Saronic waters and to see the magic of sailing under the stars.
Despite the end of season, late September / early October, Greece offered fine ‘Swedish high summer weather’, similar sun and bathing water temperatures. The children, ages from 4 years up to and including 17 years amused themselves swimming off the boat, and snorkeling in bays where we stopped.
Even though we were a big group the yacht was spacious enough and we never felt crowded. We mainly chose to have breakfast and lunch on board, then to explore the picturesque islands' and eat locally for dinner.
Our expectations were easily met, including the experience of sailing in the Mediterranean with a glimpse of dolphins. We had good food at the islands, to which we would have never come without the guidance of the ND Sails charter team, starting from the office, base and during the trip. If you want to skip the pool edge at some hotel and enrich your trip with many memories, then a sailing week is for you.

A great adventure
I chartered a yacht from ND Sails just after my wedding, as a treat to some guests.
We had the most magical trip!! The yacht was clean, spacious and our skipper was very knowledgeable and hospitable. Although years have passed since then, we all still talk about that trip, and how much fun we had! From the point of departure to the point of return, it was smooth sailing! The organization was seamless.
We left from Lavrio and went to Kea and then headed to other islands in the Cyclades, where we stopped in various ports and several secluded coves. We enjoyed meals at traditional taverns and were extremely impressed with some delicious meals of lobster pasta and feta with tsipouro mussels in Kythnos and Sifnos We all returned to port with huge smiles on our faces and I would recommend the ND Sails experience wholeheartedly, to anyone for a great adventure that they will never forget!!

An amazing trip
This was the first year that I went sailing. Our trip included four islands in the Cyclades (Kythnos, Sifnos, Serifos and Kimolos).
The yacht was equipped and includes anything you need to have pleasant holidays. The kitchen was ready to impress a chef to cook any type of sophisticated meal. In the galley there were two fridges and enough space for anything you would need to store or find for a week’s vacation. During the check-in the yacht was extremely clean, the sheets and towels were enough for the week and in excellent condition. The cabins were quite spacious and well as the cockpit. The yacht overall gave you a great feeling of space and ease.
We did not have any problems concerning the engine throughout the whole trip when we used it and the sails where in excellent condition. We were extremely happy with the sailing we were able to do!! I can easily recommend this yacht for any group of friends or family up to 8 to 10 persons easily.
I had an amazing trip and I can’t wait to go sailing again next summer!!
Thank you ND Sails for everything!!

Ease and confidence
I so enjoyed your boat 'Marla', which is very well maintained yacht and sails like a dolphin. The engine caries her smoothly with ease and confidence.
A lot of space and all the right things at the right place. Wonderful to have two refrigerators plenty of living room space and 5 cabins with 3 baths.
The sails came out and in like a charm and the electric winch made my life as charter/skipper so much easier. Not to forget her huge anchor with 80 meters chain always held us comfortable, solid and safe in place!
We will be very happy to come sailing with ND Sails again.

Great Boat, Great Skipper
We booked with ND Sails in Lavrio, Greece. The Lagoon 42 was just the right size for our party of four plus skipper. The check in process was simple enough.
We were lined up with the best Greek Skipper you could ask for… Angelo. He made the trip. The boat is a great boat, but the skipper added the personal touch of knowing the islands and the ports of call. He was a great head of crew and was great to spend seven days with. The check out process was much more intense as every little scratch was discussed. Again, Angelo handled this for us… Thank you, Angelo.
