This third leg of the Mediterranean Sea crossing will take the crew from Palermo on the island of Sicilia to Lefkada island in the Ionian Islands in Greece. After a week and more than 450 nautical miles, Avel Vaez will arrive in Greece!
On this cruise, we target around 65 miles per day including the long leg across the Adriatic Sea, around 170 miles in one of the most interesting crossings of the Med. This crossing is typically windy, and Avel Vaez will quickly put this one behind! The best stopover possible in Vulcano and Taormina as well as the Messine passage will make this cruise unforgettable!
Upon arrival on board, our skipper will give a thorough safety briefing and set sail directly to Vulcano.
Vulcano deserves a visit. We propose to stay one day in this idyllic stopover and enjoy the walk on the fuming volcano!
From Vulcano, we will sail through the most famous strait of Messine. We will observe the special fishing vessels hunting the marlins in the strait. The arrival in Taormina offers a sumptuous view.
This is normal and relaxing cruise along the southern coast of Italy.
Another relaxing sail through the south sole of Italy to reach Crotone, from where we sail to Greece.
This is a serious crossing. With the right wind, this is where Avel Vaez will reach the top speeds…!
After a long previous day of sailing accross the Adriatic, this cruise is a quite one along the coast to reach destination and enjoy this gorgeous island.
