When it comes to unforgettable summer adventures, nothing compares to a sailing holiday — and there’s no better place to do it than the Mediterranean. At Med Sailing Holidays, we specialize in immersive sailing experiences across four spectacular regions: Croatia, the Ionian Islands of Greece, and Italy’s coastal treasures — Sardinia and Sicily. Each destination we sail offers a unique blend of nature, culture, and that unmatched feeling of freedom on the water.
Sailing in Croatia is like stepping into a postcard. Our routes from Split or Dubrovnik take you through a mix of lively islands, peaceful bays, and ancient coastal towns. Explore the cobbled streets of Korčula, swim in the saltwater lakes of Mljet, sip wine in Vis, or experience the buzz of Hvar. These are not just beautiful stops — they’re part of our real sailing itineraries that offer both relaxation and adventure. With calm waters and short sailing distances, Croatia is ideal whether you’re a seasoned sailor or a first-time guest.

The Ionian Islands offer some of the most relaxing sailing in the Mediterranean. Departing from Corfu or Lefkada, our Greek itineraries glide through lush green islands like Paxos, Antipaxos, Ithaca, and Kefalonia. Think turquoise bays, traditional whitewashed villages, and delicious Greek food in family-run tavernas. With sheltered waters and easy sailing legs, the Ionian route is perfect for those wanting a peaceful and scenic holiday. Every anchorage feels like a private paradise.
Sardinia is known for its crystal-clear waters, dramatic coastline, and exclusive charm. Our itinerary departs from Olbia or Portisco and explores the northeast coast, including the stunning Maddalena Archipelago. You'll find beaches that rival the Caribbean, scenic national parks, and small villages with a rich cultural identity. Whether snorkeling off pink-sand beaches or enjoying fresh seafood in a quiet harbor, Sardinia offers a laid-back elegance that makes every moment feel special.
Our Sicily itinerary is a blend of raw natural beauty and deep cultural heritage. Departing from Syracuse, we sail through the Aeolian Islands, including stops at Vulcano, Lipari, and Stromboli. These volcanic islands offer dramatic views, thermal springs, and charming villages perched above the sea. Enjoy a glass of Malvasia wine as you watch Stromboli’s lava glow against the night sky — a moment you’ll never forget. Sicily combines adventure, gastronomy, and history like nowhere else.
A Sailing Experience Like No Other
What makes a sailing holiday in these destinations truly unique is the freedom to explore at your own pace. Swim in secluded bays, stroll through ancient towns, and dine under the stars aboard your yacht. Every day is different, every stop unforgettable. And with Med Sailing Holidays, you’re not just visiting — you’re experiencing the Mediterranean the way it’s meant to be lived.
