Who RIANA suits
Measuring 42 m, this Silyon Yachts sailing yacht is well suited to family gatherings or groups of friends, carrying up to 10 guests in 5 cabins with a crew of 7. Having been built in 2007 and refitted in 2025, she provides a welcoming environment for relaxed cruising under sail. Life on board centres around her generous sun deck lined with sun pads, while active charterers can explore quiet coves using the kayaks and paddleboards.
When placed against similar yachts cruising in Greece, RIANA aligns closely across key metrics. She sits at a similar length to equivalent sailing yachts in the region and accommodates the same number of guests. Her build year is also similar to comparable options, and she commands a similar weekly rate, presenting a balanced choice for sailors seeking classic seafaring qualities.
The best season to sail aboard RIANA depends on your choice of cruising grounds. During winter 2026, she explores the East Mediterranean, with itineraries through Greece, Turkey, Croatia, and Montenegro. For summer 2027, her range broadens considerably, taking in the West Mediterranean with destinations such as Corsica & Sardinia, the French Riviera, the Amalfi Coast, and the Balearic Islands.

Cruising Greece: when to go and where to anchor
Best time
The charter season runs from April to October. Peak activity occurs in July and August, coinciding with high temperatures and the Meltemi wind in the Aegean. May, June, September, and October offer milder weather and lower traffic. The Ionian Sea generally experiences lighter winds than the Aegean, while the Saronic Gulf provides sheltered conditions. Early and late season bookings are recommended for quieter anchorages and more moderate sailing conditions.
Practical tips
- Most charters start at the Athens-area marinas (Alimos, Flisvos, Lavrio), about 30–50 minutes by car from Athens airport.
- Entry into Greek ports often requires stern-to mooring; ensure the crew is briefed on anchor deployment and line handling.
- Water supplies can be limited on smaller islands; monitor consumption and refill tanks at every opportunity in marinas.
Anchorages to know
- Lakka, PaxosA wide, horseshoe-shaped bay featuring a shallow sandy bottom, typically ranging from two to four metres in depth.
- Hydra HarbourA historic port on a vehicle-free island, requiring stern-to mooring in a tight, bustling harbour environment.
- Ormos Kleftiko, MilosA bay defined by white volcanic rock formations and sea caves, accessible only by boat.
- Gaios, PaxosA narrow, fjord-like inlet providing a sheltered natural harbour protected by the islet of Agios Nikolaos.
