Ionas is a 2020 Lagoon 42 catamaran based at Rhodes New Marina, your gateway to the Dodecanese archipelago and some of the Eastern Mediterranean's most treasured sailing grounds. This six-cabin vessel comfortably accommodates up to ten guests across two hulls, offering the stability and generous deck space that make catamarans ideal for families, groups of friends, or those seeking an effortless week at sea. With five en-suite bathrooms, the layout ensures privacy and comfort for all aboard, while the dual 57 hp engines provide reliable propulsion for reaching anchorages quickly when the wind drops.

Life aboard Ionas unfolds across well-appointed social spaces and thoughtful amenities designed for both relaxation and seamless sailing. The cockpit, shaded by a generous bimini and protected by a sprayhood, becomes your floating living room—outfitted with cushioned seating, a sound system, and an autopilot that lets you settle into the rhythm of the sea. Below deck, a refrigerator keeps provisions fresh, while the galley is equipped for preparing meals that rival any shoreside taverna. Navigation is intuitive thanks to the GPS plotter and cockpit-mounted GPS, supported by lazy jacks that simplify sail handling throughout your voyage.

A typical week from Rhodes unfolds across crystalline anchorages and windswept islands. You might sail south to Symi, with its pastel harbour houses and sponge-diving heritage, then push toward Tilos or the protected waters around Nisyros. Mornings invite snorkeling—the included equipment opens access to underwater gardens teeming with Mediterranean life. Solar panels keep your batteries charged as you drift at anchor; electric toilets and freshwater systems operate without fuss. Evening sunsets paint the sky in amber and rose as you dine on deck, the gentle lap of water against the hulls your only soundtrack.

Whether you're seeking a week of active exploration or serene anchorages where time moves at the pace of the tides, Ionas delivers both the capability and comfort to make it yours. A seven-night charter is the ideal length to truly know these waters and return home transformed by salt-air mornings and star-filled nights.
