Dinghy Sailing Holiday in Greece (Porto Heli)
Factfile
Porto Heli stretches around the head of a
large bay at the tip of the Argolic Peninsula, opposite the
well-known island of Spetses. The pine-covered headland almost
encloses the bay and creates a large, natural safe sailing area,
beyond which are attractive pine-fringed coves, quiet sandy beaches
and waterside tavernas that can all be explored by mountain bike or
dinghy. Porto Heli is also in a great location for exploring
classical Greece with Mycenae, Navplion, Epidavros, Athens and the
islands of Hydra and Poros all within easy reach.
The bay and area just beyond provides the
perfect conditions and space to race and improve your technique and
skills on our excellent range of high perfomance and asymmetric
dinghies. Porto Heli is the perfect destination for keen dinghy
sailors, whilst still providing excellent facilities and
attractions for non-active friends and family.
Our Active centre is based on the beach across
the road from the Nautica Bay Hotel. The spacious hotel grounds and
extensive facilities offer plenty of independence for youngsters of
all ages who will quickly make new friends. Evening entertainment
is mainly centred around the hotel bar and roof top taverna. For
party animals, there are a couple of nightclubs and late bars in
and around Porto Heli village.
