🔵 ACCOMMODATION & BASES

Two Bases. One Standard. Built for Performance.

IonianMode Racing operates from two strategic locationsSivota (Lefkas) and Mikrolimano (Athens).
Both bases provide direct access to high-quality sailing conditions and simple, functional accommodation designed to support focused training.

Accommodation in both locations is offered in shared rooms with showers, clean facilities, Wi-Fi, and easy access to local services.
No distractions. No unnecessary luxury. Just a training environment that supports performance, recovery, and efficiency.


🔷 LEFKAS BASE — SIVOTA

Our primary performance headquarters

Sivota is the heart of IonianMode Racing.

The Figaro 3 is moored on a private pontoon just 150 metres from our office and classroom, allowing instant movement between theory sessions, prep, and on-water performance coaching.

The surrounding sailing area — Lefkas, Meganisi, Ithaca, and Kefalonia — provides ideal conditions for structured training:

  • Flat water for drills and maneuvers

  • Open channels for speed and VMG work

  • Short island hops for tactical decision-making

  • Predictable afternoon winds for consistent practice

Accommodation:
Shared rooms within walking distance, with:

  • Showers

  • Clean bedding

  • Wi-Fi

  • Supermarkets, bakeries, restaurants, and ATMs nearby

Everything is close. Everything is simple.
A base designed for sailors who come to improve.


 

 

🔷 ATHENS BASE — MIKROLIMANO

Gateway to the Aegean racing calendar

Our Athens base in Mikrolimano provides direct access to the Aegean Sea, home to Greece’s most demanding regattas:

Cyclades Regatta, Aegean Rally, Aegean 600, and the full coastal race series.

From Mikrolimano, the Figaro 3 enters open water within minutes—perfect for:

  • Heavy-weather training

  • Offshore preparation and night-sailing modules

Accommodation:

This base is built for sailors who want exposure to stronger winds, tactical conditions, and real Aegean performance sailing.

Sivota (Lefkas):

  • Controlled conditions

  • Ideal for learning fundamentals

  • Perfect for performance development, repetition, and structure

Mikrolimano (Athens):
