Private Sailing Charter: Skorpios, Meganisi & Hidden Coves

Board a crewed private yacht from Nydri and glide across Ionian silk-blue water to the legendary private isle of Skorpios, secret sea caves, and the emerald bays of Meganisi — your own floating villa for the day.

What to expect

Step aboard at Nydri's quay and feel the crowds dissolve the moment you clear the harbour. The captain threads between the Lefkada islets toward Skorpios — once the Onassis family's private retreat — where you anchor in a turquoise bay ringed by cypress and olive. Swim from the stern ladder, then continue to Meganisi's sea caves for a snorkel in crystalline water teeming with sea bream. A cold meze spread and chilled Assyrtiko await on deck as you make your leisurely return.

Good to know

Full-day charters typically depart 09:00 and return by 18:00, well inside any all-aboard window. Book at least 2 weeks ahead in peak season (July–August). Transfer to Nydri port is a short walk from most tender quays.
