The bucket-list things to do — and who runs each one.
Here’s the bucket list for your day ashore: the most extraordinary thing to do at each stop, who runs it, and how to book it direct — so you can weigh it against your ship’s excursion and pick what suits you.
In port at Nydri, the bucket-list move is Private Sailing Charter: Skorpios, Meganisi & Hidden Coves. Below: 4 bucket-list things to do on a Nydri port day — worth weighing against whatever your ship offers.
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.
