Ah, Preveza Greece! A land kissed by the sun, where turquoise waters lap against ancient shores. It’s no wonder Odysseus himself is rumored to have sailed these very waters. Today, modern-day adventurers can embark on their own odyssey, charting a course through the Ionian islands, each one a pearl strung upon the glistening sea. From the vibrant shores of Lefkada to the secluded coves of Paxos, every island whispers tales of myth and magic, beckoning you to drop anchor and explore. The winds are fair, the seas are calling, and your ship awaits – hoist the sails and let the Aegean winds guide your journey!

This is what sailors experienced:
This charming harbour boasts a welcoming atmosphere and friendly locals. However, navigating the mooring lines can be tricky for smaller vessels, particularly when attempting to go stern-to. Additionally, those with deeper drafts should be cautious of shallow waters near the quay wall. Anchoring in the calm bay outside the harbour might be a preferable option for some.

This is what sailors experienced:
Discover a peaceful haven in the heart of the bay, where anchoring in 10-14m of fine mud provides good holding. Just be sure to give your anchor ample time to set. Ashore, a delightful and affordable taverna awaits, perfect for enjoying a delicious meal after a day on the water. For provisions and marine essentials, a well-stocked supermarket and a hardware store are conveniently located within a short 500m walk.
This is what sailors experienced:
This anchorage provided reliable holding, with 30m of chain set in 5m of depth. The anchor held firm even in 15-knot winds. We appreciated the added bonus of good WiFi connectivity, allowing us to stay connected while enjoying the solitude of the location.

Beyond the harbours lie secret coves and secluded beaches, each more breathtaking than the last. Drop anchor near the white sands of Porto Katsiki on Lefkada, and feel like you've stumbled upon a scene from a mythical paradise. Or perhaps the turquoise waters of Voutoumi beach on Antipaxos call to you, promising a swim in waters so clear they must be enchanted. And for those who seek solitude, the hidden coves of Meganisi offer the perfect escape, where you can bask under the Grecian sun and let the gentle waves lull you into a state of pure bliss.
Preveza isn't just about sailing – it's a land steeped in history and wonder. Explore the ruins of Nicopolis, a once-mighty city founded by Emperor Octavian to commemorate his victory at the Battle of Actium. Wander through the charming streets of Preveza Town, where Venetian architecture mingles with modern cafes and shops. And for a taste of local life, venture into the villages that dot the coastline, where time seems to slow down and the locals welcome you with open arms (and perhaps a glass of ouzo!).
