Sailing Courses in Greece — Sailstar in the Aegean Learn to sail in Greece — where sailing is at its best! Join Sailstar to Greece and experience sailing among some of the Mediterranean's most classic waters. Our courses start from the Olympic Marina in Lavrion, only 30 minutes from Athens airport — easy, smooth and perfect for both spring and autumn seasons. During the course you will live and sail aboard a Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 440 — sometimes accompanied by a sister boat, e.g. SO 439 or Hanse 455, when we sail in squadrons. We offer both a basic course and a continuation course, with different routes depending on the level of the course:

• The basic course runs along the Greek mainland or into the bays around the Peloponnese — calm waters, shorter stages and plenty of time for exercises in sailing, maneuvering and navigation.
• The continuation course takes you out towards the Cyclades, with longer legs, more wind and night sailing — ideal for those who already have Sailing Certificate 1 or 2.

. A typical sailing week For six days, we sail between vibrant coastal towns, bathing coves and charming islands. You will learn how to sail, maneuver and add a large sailboat in real conditions. We train on swerving rules, sail trim, man-over tables and safety procedures — always with confident guidance from Sailstar's experienced instructors.
In the evenings, we enjoy Greek cuisine, crystal clear waters and starry nights moored in small harbors or natural coves. . Seasons and Times We sail 6—8 weeks in the spring and the same length in the fall:
