Who VALIUM 55 suits
Lagoon completed VALIUM 55 in 2023, producing an inviting sailing catamaran suited to relaxed family gatherings or holidays with friends. Her layout features 5 cabins providing overnight accommodation for 10 guests, while a professional crew of 3 oversees every detail of life on board. Time at anchor naturally revolves around the swim platform, with paddleboards and kayaks ready for time on the water, while air conditioning ensures a cool and restful environment indoors.
Measured against comparable options cruising Greece, VALIUM 55 sits in very familiar company. At 16.8 m, her length aligns closely with peer yachts in the area, and she accommodates the same guest count as alternative options. Her build year is consistent with matching catamarans in the local fleet, and her weekly rate remains closely aligned with similar yachts operating throughout the destination.
The best time for stepping aboard VALIUM 55 falls during her scheduled winter 2026 programme in the East Mediterranean. Setting sail across Greece in November or December, or during the early months of January, February, March, April, and May, presents an opportunity to experience these waters at an unhurried pace, enjoying serene anchorages well away from peak summer traffic.

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.
