We just had a fantastic sailing experience with Oasis. Mike is a exceptional, laid back captain, who is very knowledgeable and an amazing host. Sophia was also great to have along, and kept things in order. The both of them were like family, and made our passage very special. The Ionians are simply spectacular. Captain Mike's knowledge of secluded private coves made our voyage unique. The food on the islands was delicious and the people are very welcoming. We definitely recommend sailing with Oasis. Our crew will certainly be back again.

Absolutely incredible! They made our trip safe, comfortable, and unforgettable. Whether the day went according to plan or had to be adjusted because of rough waters, they were chill, communicative, and made sure we got to beautiful and fun locations that cannot be accessed by big boats and cruise ships. The food was amazing and always so fresh. They know the area so they gave great recommendations for when we were off the boat too.
Thank you Mike and Sofia for making my first boat vacation amazing! I can't recommend you enough!

I just finished a trip with Oasis. I can’t recommend Mike and Sofia enough. They were so friendly, knowledgeable, and knew how to make each day special. They really took into account the interests of our group and curated our experiences, and island stops, to match. Everything Sofia made, for food, was delicious and she was so carful to pay attention to what we liked even going so far as to get special drinks she heard us mention in passing. Mike checked the weather and adjusted to smooth oceans for swimming and other excursions and talked to locals to get us the best deals on shore. 10/10 would recommend this company and hope to be back on another boat with Oasis before long.

Sailed with Mike and Sofia, they were both fantastic! I felt very safe traveling with them. Sofia made delicious meals and regularly reminded us to stay hydrated. Very relaxing and comfortable trip.

Mike and Sofia were beyond exceptional at every level! I had the privilege of spending a week with them and 5 of my friends sailing the South Ionian islands. Every stop was incredible. Sofia provided breakfasts, lunches, and snacks on the boat, and every meal was incredible--light but filling and a complete tour of Greek cuisine.

This was my first time doing any sort of sailing holiday, and I ran the trip as an experiment for a travel business of my own--hosting fellow travelers for a once in a lifetime adventure. Mike was an exceptional partner and wonderfully patient as I asked questions and learned the ins and outs of planning a sailing vacation. He and Sofia helped me understand all aspects of planning the itinerary, budgeting for the boat and associated expenses, and more. I felt support and encouraged the whole way. They even provided ideas and coordination for shore excursions uniquely suited to our interests.

All five of my fellow guests agreed that we would happily sail with Oasis again. I can't wait for another adventure with Oasis Sailing!

Our captain Mike and his hostess Sophia were outstanding. We had 6 people traveling (parents and kids aged 11-25). They attended to everyone with great care and thoughtfulness. The ports amd swimming bays we visited were outstanding. The crew was relaxed and yet extremely attentive to whatever anyone needed. We would HIGHLY recommend this sailing trip in general (cute towns, fun tavernas, amazing water) and would recommend this crew without hesitation. They thought of everything. We couldn’t have been happier.

PROFESSIONALS. We spent a week and everything was perfect. Captain Pit was always there to explain anything you asked and that gave you a sense of security on the boat. Keep it up and we will definitely be back. Thank you Captain Pit.
