The Definitive Guide to Western Aegean Waters

Navigate the magical Greek waters with confidence using this authoritative guide from the Mediterranean's most respected sailing authors, featuring detailed pilotage notes, local insights, and practical advice for sailors of all experience levels.

Rod and Lucinda Heikell's West Aegean covers the coasts and islands near Athens, the adjacent islands in the Cyclades and the Eastern Peloponnisos to Monemvasia. Also covered is the mainland coast of Greece from Sounion to Volos and the adjacent coast of Evia, and the Northern Sporades including Skíathos and Skópelos.

West Aegean is a companion guide which provides details of places that are mentioned only lightly in Greek Waters Pilot. It is particularly useful for charterers, flotilla sailors and others based in the area. There is in depth information on getting around, places to visit on land and background information which cover topics ranging from food and wine to Greece's Classical past and ancient sites.

Rod and Lu Heikell's writing is acclaimed and their pilotage notes, supported by plans and photographs many of which have been taken by Lu, are regarded as the last word on the areas that they cover.

About the Authors

Rod and Lucinda Heikell are revered for their guides to the coasts and islands of the Mediterranean. Rod has spent nearly 40 years cruising these waters. He met Lu on a trip from the Azores to Gibraltar in 1999 when she joined him as crew. Many sea miles and a circumnavigation later they have lived, loved, and worked on many books together for over twenty years and live on the Isle of Wight when not out on the water in Skylax, their 46' New Zealand Warwick designed boat.

"For us the wonder of the Med is that you can sail across a relatively short bit of sea and straightaway you are in a country that is totally different from the one you left. The language, the cuisine, the cultural fabric is all unique and the people are evidently Spanish or French or Greek or Turkish."

They are authors of many Imray pilot books and almanacs including Greek Waters Pilot, Italian Waters Pilot, Turkish Waters and Cyprus Pilot, Mediterranean France and Corsica Pilot, Ionian, West Aegean, East Aegean and The Mediterranean Almanac (editors).
