Northern Greece – FAQ for Skippers & Travelers

What are the sailing highlights?

Halkidiki’s three peninsulas, protected gulfs near Thessaloniki, Kavala–Thasos bays, and Samothraki’s wild coastline.

How do I get there?

Fly to SKG (Thessaloniki) or KVA (Kavala); ferries serve Thasos/Samothraki; sail along the N Aegean routes in settled forecasts.

Any skipper tips about winds and shelter?

Summer northerlies (Meltemi) and thermal breezes; use gulfs for lee, watch acceleration near capes, and check holding over sand/weed.

Practical docking or anchoring note?

Carry long stern lines for med-mooring; avoid ferry berths at ETAs; confirm water/fuel at main marinas ahead of arrival.
