Explore Yachting is our family business. Daan is a Dutch RYA skipper and former sailing instructor who started his first charter company at 18. Victoria fell in love with sailing in the Saronic Islands in 2016 and now looks after every guest, from the first message to the last day on board.
We don’t sell boats from a catalogue. We ask who’s coming, what you love and how much sailing you want, then choose the yacht, the route and the skipper for you, very often Daan himself. When the wind changes, we change the plan, so you still end up in the best bay, at the right taverna, with time to swim.
Tell us your dates and your group, and we come back with a route and a yacht that fit: catamaran or monohull, skipper only or full crew. We’ve sailed these islands for more than ten years, so you get honest advice on weather, harbours and where to eat, and one person to call if anything comes up.
“They know the boats. They know the islands. They know the wind. The rest just happens.”

“He had a great instinct for when to stay in the background and when to step in and take charge. He was wonderful with our kids. I would sail with him again without hesitation.”

“When the weather meant we had to adjust our route a little, Daan always had fantastic alternatives ready and still took us to the most beautiful spots.”
