Greek Island Lifestyle Cruise

Discover the harmonious balance between conventional cruising and private yachting, along with an exciting voyage of discovery, unravelling the wonders of the Greek Islands aboard the Panorama II. Each day you will discover a new port of call, a hidden cove with crystal blue waters to cool you, a glimpse of ancient history, rich cultural diversity, and plenty of overnight stays in port to ensure you experience every side of Greek Island life.

Sailing Cruiser Panorama II

This state of the art sail cruiser has performed several Atlantic Ocean crossings, has sailed from the Seychelles to Monte Carlo and from the Black Sea to Tunis and offers the highest standard of accommodation, comfort and safety. Accommodating only 49 guests, Panorama II offers a comfortable, yacht-like atmosphere, yet it is casual and friendly, and her small size truly means you’ll dock right in the heart of where you want to be.

Life on Board

During the day, life on board centres around the outdoor areas including the 2 bars and the sun deck. In the evening you can relax in one of the ship’s two lounges, the library, and enjoy a drink while listening to piano music. The swimming platform on PANORAMA II ’s stern enables you to swim when weather and anchorage conditions permit.
