Dear friend
Just finished going through all the photos collected during our sailing & diving adventures last summer around the islands of the Aegean sea. It really reminded me of how lucky we are.
The Aegean sea offers miles of stunning blue coastline, hundreds of isles where you can sail to, unique diving sites, a strong island culture as well as millennia of ancient history underwater and onshore.

As sailors and divers, we spend a lot of time sailing and exploring the islands of the Aegean Sea; the Cyclades and the Dodecanese. Although some of us have been working in the area for more than 20 years we still learn and discover new places almost on a weekly basis.
I believe that many of you have dreamt or wish to travel to the islands soon or in the future. With that in mind, I’ve gathered the following 15 facts about the Cyclades that I'd like to share with you!
“In nature”, explained Sotiris the Skipper, “there are three types of relationship. Parasitic – where one creature benefits and the other one suffers. Mutual – where both creatures benefit. And commensal – where one creature gives, but gets nothing in return.”
He gave a wry smile. “You see, they are very much like human relationships…”
Here is an article written by one of our guests onboard our sailing yacht Tahita describing her sailing & diving experience... enjoy!

Back when I started diving I didn't know that much about the environment and sustainability. I just liked to go diving. I was very lucky to meet through 'Mystic Blue' a couple of marine biologists who introduced us to the unique biodiversity of our waters.
As divers, we’re blessed with the chance to see what few others see; an entire world underwater with unique geology, biology, and a life cycle all of its own. But we've also got a front row seat to the negative impact humans have on that world; underwater debris and garbage, coral bleaching and declining populations of marine animals.

Many of us are looking at the natural environment for enjoyment, inspiration and pleasure. Most of us know that we depend on the planet for food, energy, raw materials, water and air - the elements that make life possible as we know it and are the driving forces of our economies. But we often take nature for granted.
This week's World Environment Day as well as the United States’ recent decision to withdraw from the international climate agreement known as the Paris accord, it made us think again what we can do in order to protect our planet and the variety of life on earth.

Dear friend
Picture yourself feeling the wind and trimming the sails... relaxing on deck with a cold drink… walking the island's ancient paths and getting into the unspoilt lifestyle of the islanders… exploring the underwater life or spotting dolphins and sea birds…
There’s nothing like getting in the holiday mood; picturing yourself in your chosen destination and dreaming about the sights and sounds that await you.

The Aegean - the island world of the Greeks - brings to mind sun and sea, natural environment and culture, entertainment and Greek hospitality.
Spring is one of our favourite times of the year to visit the Greek islands. Although in every season the Aegean islands offer a particular quality of light, wonderful scents and superb walks, the conventional picture of the Aegean

Sailing in Greece is a unique way to discover the splendors of Greece and its marvelous islands, while exploring hidden coves, remote islands, pristine beaches and turquoise blue waters. You can drop anchor to a secluded bay, sunbathe or lay on untouched – by tourism – beaches that can only be reached by sea.
Sailing in Greece gives you the chance to actually experience what you have been picturing; diving off your sailing yacht into the crystal clear waters of the Mediterranean Sea, unwinding on deck enjoying a cold drink, hearing the waves splashing against the yacht's keel.
