He also has an in depth knowledge on the history and local customs of the islands and is always willing to share this information with any of his clients.

Daily sailing adventures with luxury sail yacht the “ANNABELLA

All our Naxos sailing tours start when we greet you with a warm Greek “KALIMERA!” at our berth in front of the cafe “Rendez vous”.

We set sail from Naxos and the surrounding islands and islets with Naxian Captain GEORGE FRAGISKOS on the luxury yacht “Annabella” to meet new friends, to share adventures and exciting experiences of a lifetime while you learn about historical monuments and thrilling myths that surround them. You will see old and new castles and chapels wander about in quaint, picturesque, traditional villages and mysterious sea caves where legends were born.

You will know that you have made the right decision to sail with us when dolphins come out to play while they race in front of us as we cut through the crystal clear, cool blue waters.

While aboard, Captain GEORGE will teach you the art of sailing, under the tutelage of our “old salt” that has over forty years of knowledge and many thousands of sea miles of experience in the Greek waters and the Mediterranean Sea, you will get the chance to learn all about instrument navigation, trimming sails and steering a luxury yacht and have photos and video footage to remember it all!

Once you have had your fill, we take a relaxing sail back to Naxos arriving around 18:00hrs weather permitting. Please note that the entire trip is under full sail.

Captain GEORGE guarantees you, your family and your friends a magical, unforgettable, and above all ,safe sailing experience.

Thank you all

"Thank you George for a great day out on Annabella, My daughter and I only had 4 days on Naxos so our time was very important to us ,right from the start of our first enquiry George was there to answer any questions. We are so glad we chose Naxos sailing to enjoy one of those valuable days.lm from Sydney and have sailed all my life and having my precious daughter with me experience was paramount for my decision on who to go with.I made the right choice.George was excellent and the yacht was beautiful. Excellent experience Paul from Pittwater Sydney" paullR9588XD, Newport, Australia
"George and Thiseas really made our honeymoon special! Fantastic boat tour and great hospitality. Rina cave was very cool, the island of Schinoussa was beautiful with a delicious lunch with sea view at “Deli”. But the ultimate cherry on the cake was spotting both sea turtles and dolphins!! All around 5 star experience and it was topped off with a DVD included with pictures from the whole day. Thank you George and Thiseas!!" house121s, London, United Kingdom
"We took the sailing the Cyclades trip yesterday and thoroughly enjoyed a beautiful day out on crystal clear and calm waters! We visited the beautiful and quiet island of Iraklia and enjoyed the insightful commentary of Captain George about all the islands and cultural history. The cruise is great value for money as you are out from 815am to 6pm and the hospitality of the crew is fantastic! Thrilled to see a few dolphins along the way too and receive a complimentary DVD with special photo memories of the day. Highly recommend booking this in for a great Greek Islands cruising experience" Florencedas, Sydney, Australia
"We had a great day sailing with George and his son. They both made sure we were safe and had a good time. The highlight was definitely the cave trip. Having a few hours in Iraklia was also a treat. Would definitely recommend this activity. We saw a sea turtle up close, but I wish we had seen some dolphins. We are sorting through the DVD photos right now." Sarah L, Massachusetts, USA
