Corporate yachting in Corfu (Ionian Islands).
Corfu offers a corporate offsite of calm island-hopping through the emerald waters of the Ionian Sea, from Venetian Corfu to the blue caves of Paxos. Our base is Gouvia Marina, 6 km from Corfu's UNESCO-listed Old Town, with a capacity of 1,235 berths — a major Ionian charter hub 15 minutes from CFU airport.
The prevailing summer wind is the Maistro, a gentle north-westerly afternoon breeze that rarely exceeds Force 4 — ideal for relaxed cruising and for teams with no sailing experience. The calm conditions of the Ionian are a deliberate contrast to the Meltemi-driven Aegean, which makes Corfu a comfortable, reliable choice.
A typical itinerary includes the islands of Paxos and Antipaxos, just 7 nautical miles south of Corfu, famous for their sea caves and white beaches. The season runs from May to October, and a baseline range of €425 to €675 per person per night makes Corfu an accessible base for team building, incentives and client events.
