Why should you hire a yacht in Kefalonia with a skipper?

There are many reasons why a skippered yacht hire in Kefalonia is a fantastic idea. Your skipper will be a local sailor who knows the area very well and so can create a unique itinerary for you that includes both the areas that you want to see and the hidden secrets of the island. In addition to teaching you about the local area, your skipper can also give you a crash course in the basics of sailing if you wish. If you hire with a skipper, you also won’t have to worry about whether or not you have the correct sailing licence as setting sail with a skipper negates your need for one. More than anything, though, the main reason to hire a yacht in Kefalonia with a skipper is that it allows you the opportunity to simply sit back, relax, and enjoy your trip without having to worry about the technicalities of sailing the boat. If you want to further increase the relaxation factor of your holiday, you can rent with a full crew, complete with a chef, who will prepare a range of local delicacies for you to eat on board.
