Start your sailing cruise experience by arriving at the sailing yacht where one of our cruise representatives will greet you and give you an overview of the cruise itinerary along with important safety information. We lift the anchors and set the sails to Mykonos southern coastline where a slew of gorgeous beaches are located and protected from the “Meltemi”, north strong winds, where Mykonos takes the name from - the “Island of Winds”. Enjoy a beach safari where you can soak up the spectacular views passing by (without stopping) the famous beaches of Ornos, Psarou, Platis Gialos, Paraga and Paradise. We set the sails for 1 hour approximately to reach the uninhabited islet of Rhenia, known also as “Big Delos “. Rhenia is accessible only via yacht, making it a small secluded paradise compared to the crowded and organized beaches of Mykonos. The refreshing turquoise salty waters are inviting you for a relaxing swim entering the clear sea by the yacht swimming ladder (pier facilities or tendering ashore are not available). Snorkeling gear is available on board for free use at your convenience. On board early-dinner is ready with a variety of traditional Greek flavours served with Mediterranean style buffet and a selection of complimentary wine, beers and soft drinks. After approximately 2 hours spent in the untouched islet of Rhenia, we sail back to Mykonos by watching the breathtaking landscape of yellow, orange and red colours while the sun goes down in the very blue Aegean Sea.

Mykonos’s popularity is partly due to its great number of the most beautiful and famous beaches, especially on the Southern part of the island.

You can enjoy the privacy of our boat or swim to shore and mingle, the choice is yours. In the meantime, we will treat you to Greek culinary delicacies on board, accompanied by refreshments and complimentary chilled Greek wine. We sail round the island towards the west and past Agios Ioannis and head South, past Psarou, Platys Gyalos & Ornos. First stop will be Paraga Beach with the famous Scorpios, where there will be time for swimming by diving from the boat. After approximately 30 minutes we head past Paradise Beach and make our second stop at Super Paradise. Here we stop for approx. 2 hours for swimming and lunch (BBQ menu with souvlaki, tzatziki, Greek salad & fruit). Passengers can enjoy another swim by jumping off the boat or can be taken ashore in our tender. Super Paradise Beach can get very crowded during peak season. The beach is located within a beautiful cove surrounded by the characteristic Cycladic landscape and has beautiful crystalline waters and soft golden sand. It is considered one of the most beautiful beaches in Greece and is well-organized with sunbeds and parasols. However, if you feel flat with the idea of sitting very close to other people, you can lay your towel on the right side of the beach, which is still pristine. Right after our time at Super Paradise is over, we head back to the original embarkation point.
