Lucia is a 2023 Sun Odyssey 410 based at D-Marin Marina in Lefkada, your gateway to Greece's Ionian islands. This 12-metre sailing yacht combines modern comfort with accessible performance, making it an ideal choice for groups of up to eight seeking a week of genuine exploration rather than crowded resort sailing. The three cabins and two heads accommodate families, close friends, or multi-generational groups with ease, while the thoughtfully appointed interior—complete with a full galley featuring both refrigeration and a coffee maker—means you're never far from morning espresso or evening aperitifs.

Lefkada's position on Greece's western coast opens onto some of the Mediterranean's most rewarding cruising grounds. Your week typically unfolds across the nearby Paxi islands, the emerald coves of Antipaxos, and southward toward Zakynthos, with consistent winds and sheltered anchorages that reward both confident sailors and those building their skills. The 2023 build means modern systems throughout: GPS chartplotting and autopilot handle the technical demands, while the bow thruster and efficient Yanmar engine make tight anchorages manageable. Solar panels and a freshwater desalinator reduce your dependence on shore facilities, extending your time in remote spots.

Onboard life balances purposeful sailing with genuine relaxation. The bimini top and sprayhood protect you during midday heat or unexpected squalls, while cushioned cockpit seating invites long lunches with local wine. The included stand-up paddle board opens access to shallow bays and hidden inlets unreachable by larger vessels, and the tender (dinghy) extends your exploration radius. Evening Wi-Fi keeps you loosely connected if needed, though most find themselves unplugging entirely. The gennaker and modern sail plan reward those who want to feel the boat move, yet the systems are equally forgiving for a more leisurely pace.

A typical week aboard Lucia reads like a series of small discoveries: morning swims in crystalline water, afternoons anchored off whitewashed villages where the only sounds are rigging and local fishermen, sunsets that shift from gold to deep violet as you sip wine from the cockpit. This is sailing stripped of pretence—genuine, unhurried, and deeply Mediterranean.
