The Ionian Sea contains the seven main islands of Corfu, Paxos, Lefkas, Ithaca, Kefalonia, Zakynthos and Kythira as well as many smaller islands. The Ionian Sea is bordered by southern Italy and Sicily, southern Albania and the west coast of Greece. The historic area of the Ionian Islands is immensely popular with yacht charterers due to their natural beauty and charm. Moderate winds and the infrastructure for sailors on the islands in the Ionian Sea is good even though the area is still quite unspoilt. You find the typical authentic Greek tavern with the wonderful Greek food, quaint harbors, amazing historic sites and easy sailing conditions.
