The island is considered one of the most cosmopolitan in all of Greece, it is ideal for ambulatory routes, romantic walks, and entertainment from the wide range of bars.

Day Three

Portofino / S. Margherita Ligure

Departure in the morning from Lavagna, destination Portofino.

This is the most glamorous location of this itinerary (and of Liguria in general). It is a natural port in the heart of the Tigullio, which over the years has become the exclusive location of the worlds jet seters, a very small village populated mainly in the spring / summer period. Visiting it in the months of July / August you will surely find several mega yachts at anchor and VIPs sitting in its restaurants or doing shopping in its exclusive boutiques.

In addition to this aspect, it is a real gem between the crystalline water and the green hill behind it. To fully enjoy its enchanting atmosphere, visit it early in the morning, when the village is surrounded by a magical light and a truly priceless calm.

IMPORTANT: the whole area around Portofino is a protected environmental area, therefore it is forbidden to enter with yachts, but no problem with the tender. You can spend the afternoon in front of Paraggi, this is the name of the beach between Portofino and Santa Margherita (the next village).

The water has a special color, between green and turquoise, a color so particular that it has coined a new name to define it: the “Paraggi green”.

It is worth dedicating a few hours to discovering this area by the sea (preferably by kayak, to be able to explore all its hidden coves and caves).

At this point the Captain will take you to the port of Santa Margherita while you can enjoy a typical Ligurian aperitif (you cannot miss a taste of focaccia, farinata, pesto and some fried anchovies), all while admiring the splendid surrounding landscape. S. Margherita is a small town, full of restaurants, bars and nightlife. For the evening a table will be reserved for you in the splendid and exclusive Oasi al Mare beach club and restaurant, refined local food, excellent wine to enjoy comfortably seated a few steps from the sea.

Day Four

With an area of 19,85 square kilometres, Meganisi belongs to the province of Lefkada and has three scenic villages with unique beauties: Vathi, Atomeri and Spartochori. So much on Meganisi creates the ideal place for you to spend the day and explore, whether it be the traditional architecture, hospitable residents, magnificent sceneries, picturesque bays, splendid views, green landscapes and the crystal waters.
