East Mediterranean
Overview

Areas & Highlights
Greek Islands
The Greek Islands are the quintessential Mediterranean sailing destination — a scattered mosaic of over 6,000 islands and islets. From the volcanic drama of Santorini's caldera to the whitewashed Cycladic villages of Mykonos, the islands offer an intoxicating blend of ancient history and crystal-clear Aegean waters.
Turkish Riviera
The Turkish Riviera — known as the Turquoise Coast — stretches from Bodrum to Antalya with extraordinary beauty. Pine-forested mountains plunge into impossibly clear turquoise water, dotted with ancient Lycian ruins and hidden sea caves.
Dalmatian Coast
Croatia's Dalmatian Coast is an 1,800-kilometre paradise of over 1,000 islands and UNESCO World Heritage walled cities. Dubrovnik is the 'Pearl of the Adriatic', while the national parks of Kornati and Krka offer extraordinary natural beauty.
Ancient ruins and history
The Eastern Mediterranean is the cradle of Western civilisation — a region where every bay seems to conceal a temple, theatre, or necropolis. Greek ruins at Delphi and Mycenae, Lycian rock tombs, and Byzantine monasteries offer 3,000 years of history.
World-class cuisine
Eastern Mediterranean cuisine is among the world's most celebrated. In Greece, feast on freshly grilled octopus and honey-drenched baklava. Turkey's mezes and kebabs are legendary. Croatia offers truffles and fine Plavac Mali wine.
Island Beach Clubs & Sunsets
The Eastern Mediterranean's beach-club culture is legendary. From Mykonos' sunset bars to Bodrum's chic lidos and Hvar's waterfront lounges, the region pairs relaxed days on the water with unforgettable golden-hour evenings ashore.
