Greek Islands and the Turkish coast   on board of Grand  Acar

SPECIAL NOTE:
This year Ahmet Kaptan has sails for his yacht .We will be able to use the sail cruising the islands.
Sailing through the Greek Islands depending on weather conditions we might have to leave as early as 07:30 since afternoon MELTEMI ( Soft Winds of the Aegean - Mediterranean) might not be comfortable to cruise with.
