Sailing week Corfù – Ragusa-Dubrovnik
From Corfu starts a nice itinerant cruise school for those who want to experience the coastal sailing and deep sea fishing or simply for those who love sailing trips.Ther are many interesting places that we can visit through the Ionian Sea to arrive in the Adriatic Sea. The ancient Venetians did not have the modern sailing boats we have today and so the return journey to Venice could last for months! Depending on your requirements we can opt for a non-stop sailing for 30 hours to reach the city of Ragusa (Dubrovnik) in Croatia or Albania along the reach and Montenegro join the famous Bay of Kotor, visit the ancient city of Kotor a UNESCO world heritage site. Between 1420 and 1797 Kotor and its surrounding region belonged to the Republic of Venice and the Venetian influence is still visible in the architecture of the city. Released from the mouths continue until you reach Dubrovnik in Croatia (Dubrovnik). The city was founded under the name of the greek Ragusium Ragousion in the first half of the seventh century by the inhabitants of the nearby city of Epidaurum (today’s Cavtat or Cavtat) fled from the invasions of the Slavs and Avars. Subsequently, the city came under the protection of the Byzantine Empire and began to develop a thriving trade in the Adriatic Sea and the eastern Mediterranean. In the eleventh century Dubrovnik had become a thriving market town and thanks to the strong alliance with Ancona was able to resist for a period also in Venice and was able to develop further as a maritime republic. Alternatively, if there are requests, it is possible to opt a sailing towards Italy in Otranto continuing along the coast to up to Vieste Gargano and then crossed the Adriatic, arriving at Lagosta (Lastovo). Hvar (Hvar) and Split.
