A briefing before you leave

You are shown the boat, the controls and the key information for the day, so nothing is a surprise once you are out.

Five steps to get out on the water

The process is simple, from choosing a boat to leaving the marina.

  1. Choose your boat

    Pick from the boats above. All three carry up to five people and need no boating licence.

  2. Pick a date and a rental period

    Morning, afternoon or a full day. The times are set out on the board below.

  3. Send your request on WhatsApp

    This site writes the message for you with the boat, date, period and number of people already filled in. You press send.

  4. Get your confirmation from SeaDream

    A person replies to confirm availability and arrange the details. Your request is not an automatic reservation.

  5. Take your briefing, then take the helm

    On the day you are shown the boat, the controls, the safety equipment and the area. Then the day is yours.

Gouvia is a good place to start from

Gouvia sits in a sheltered bay on the east coast of Corfu, which is what makes it a comfortable place to take your first boat out from.

Where you go from there is genuinely up to you. Part of the briefing is a conversation about the coastline, the conditions on the day, and what makes sense for the hours you have booked. That conversation is worth more than a list of pins on a map, because the right answer changes with the wind.

Ask when you send your request and SeaDream will talk you through the options for your date.
