A warm Aegean breeze lifts the yacht’s canvas as the port of Kolymvari slides away and the pale spine of Thodorou (Agioi Theodoroi) appears on the horizon. Guests settle on deck, sunglasses on, salt on their lips; within an hour the yacht anchors in a bowl of clear turquoise water where the island’s scrubbed limestone meets the sea.
