Ionian. Ионическое море

IONIAN
Corfu, Levkas, Cephalonia, Zakinthos and the adjacent mainland coast to Finakounda
Like its companions West Aegean and East Aegean, Ionian contains detailed information on many of the smaller harbours and anchorages which cannot be covered as comprehensively in Rod Heikell's major guide, Greek Waters Pilot.
These handy cruising companions are ideal for charterers and flotilla sailors who are in the area for a short time but, to make the best of it, need all the essential background information on places to visit, history, food and travelling in Greece at their fingertips. Cruisers on their own yachts will also find much of interest and additional pilotage when cruising in the area.
Ionian covers the coasts and islands south from Corfu, southwards to Finakounda and eastwards to Mesolongion. Ionian is essential on-board reference.
This new 9th edition has been thoroughly revised throughout. The authors have carefully updated the text and plans and added lively new photographs.
