About Crewed Sailing Yacht NEREIDA
NEREIDA is a Nigel Halliwell Rena Class ketch built in 1984 and meticulously restored in 2012. Constructed from teak and iroko with mahogany panelling and brass fittings throughout, she represents a rare slice of sailing heritage. Accommodating four guests across two traditionally appointed cabins, this is a vessel for those who appreciate authentic craftsmanship over modern convenience.
Based in Volos, Greece, NEREIDA offers an exclusive charter experience rarely found in the classic yacht market today. The forward master cabin provides intimate seclusion ideal for honeymoons, whilst the saloon berths suit smaller families seeking character and romance. Every detail speaks of her provenance, from the hand-finished joinery to the carefully curated furnishings that recall her golden era.
Your crew bring genuine sailing expertise and warmth to each voyage. A particularly personal touch surfaces in the extra virgin olive oil from owner-manager Charlotte's own grove, served aboard during your charter. This attention to authentic detail extends throughout the vessel, creating an experience defined by connection rather than spectacle.

The Charter Experience
Charter NEREIDA across the Northern Sporades Islands, where emerald coves and whitewashed villages complement her classical elegance. The Aegean's light winds suit her sailing character perfectly, whilst protected anchorages offer safe harbour. Snorkelling and fishing equipment, an inflatable tender, and a Bimini for respite ensure comfort during exploration of this timeless archipelago.
Suggested Itinerary
Depart Volos for the pine-fringed Pelion peninsula, then sail to Skiathos for its sheltered harbours and verdant coastline. Continue to the quieter islets of Skopelos and Alonnisos, where underwater Hellenic ruins and secluded bays reward the intrepid sailor. Each anchorage offers tavernas serving local catch and island produce, best savoured from NEREIDA's deck at sunset.
