The experience
The yacht leaves Marina Gouvia and heads toward Corfu's old town, where Venetian fortresses and architecture come into view as you sail. Garitsa Bay appears next (a natural anchorage where superyachts drop anchor), and from there you'll pass Mouse Island, where planes landing at the airport fly low overhead and make for good photographs. The skipper knows the stops and adjusts timing based on what you want: some groups want to swim and relax, others prefer to stay on deck and take in the sights, and most want both.
The 4-hour morning and afternoon cruises stop at the Royal Baths for a swim, then Vido Island for a second swim in clear water before returning to the marina. The full-day 8-hour cruise follows the northeast coastline with several swim stops and includes a break at a seaside restaurant for lunch. The sunset cruise skips the northeast route and instead sails along the town and Garitsa Bay to catch the golden hour, when the sky turns colors that make the whole thing feel like a memory before it's over.
Onboard you get a skipper who handles the boat, snorkeling equipment and noodle floats for the water, beach towels, wine and beer, soft drinks and water, and snacks: sandwiches with cheese and turkey, tomato and cucumber sticks, crisps. If you have dietary needs or allergies, bring what you want and the skipper will work with it. A Bluetooth speaker is there if you want music. Insurance is included in the price.
