We’ve picked our Top 5 flotilla destinations for 2027 – from the crystal-clear waters and beautiful islands of Corfu and the Ionian, to the stunning Saronic Gulf. Each location offers something a little different, but all promise incredible sailing, beautiful anchorages and plenty of unforgettable moments along the way.
And there are 2 very special adventures we couldn’t leave out… our 2027 Pop-Up Flotillas in the British Virgin Islands and Sardinia!
Explore the beautiful Northern Ionian on our Corfu flotilla. Starting and finishing in Gouvia marina, the classic "South Route" takes a gentle and meandering route between mainland Greece and the famous Paxos island, visiting unspoilt villages, lively towns and world-famous bays.
The more adventurous "North Route" offers more challenging sailing conditions exploring the lesser-known northern bays and remote Erikousa island.
The Ionian Islands are an ideal sailing destination for both beginners and experienced sailors looking for a more relaxed sailing experience. With mild winds and short distances between ports, you can concentrate on soaking in all that Greece has to offer.
The Saronic Gulf and Gulf of Corinth Flotilla will operate two one-way flotilla routes, meaning that whichever route you choose, you will get to experience the engineering marvel that is the Corinth Canal!
The season starts at the end of April with the Corinth Route, setting sail from the quaint village of Korfos and sailing north through the 4km long Corinth Canal before taking in some fascinating and unspoilt spots in the Gulf of Corinth and ending the week in Kiato.
Join the Fethiye flotilla and explore this beautiful stretch of the Turkish coast in good company. The flotilla skipper and hostess accompany the flotilla on the lead yacht and are on hand for help and advice as required.
With alternating one week itineraries you can choose between the Fethiye/Cold Water Bay route or the Karacaoren route, both taking in stunning bays with crystal clear waters as well as ancient sites. Those with more time may choose to combine the two routes and enjoy a two week holiday for a truly memorable experience.
Situated near the city of Split, Agana has a wealth of historical and culinary delights to be uncovered.
Head north to explore the stunning Krka National Park, or sail south to discover the rich culture of Brač and Šolta.
The Split flotilla offers a choice of 1-week itineraries, North towards beautiful Skradin and the magnificent Krka National Park or South around iconic Hvar and enchanting Vis, taking in the scenic Dalmatia coastline.
We’re excited to reveal that our next Nautilus Pop-Up Flotilla will be heading to the spectacular British Virgin Islands in 2027.
Over 10 nights, you will explore the jewels of the British Virgin Islands (BVI). Sailing from Nanny Cay on Tortola, you will discover Anegada's beautiful flora and fauna, the dramatic boulders at The Baths on Virgin Gorda, and relax at Soggy Dollar Bar while sampling local specialities. Whether you are travelling as a family, a group of friends, or a couple, there is something for everyone to discover.
After the huge sell-out success of the Sardinia pop-up flotilla in 2025 and 2026 we are thrilled to announce that it will be back in 2027!
Imagine dazzling white sand beaches, turquoise waters, unspoiled national parks, and world-renowned cuisine. Sardinia is truly one of the Mediterranean's most spectacular sailing destinations.
