Mykonos
Glamorous and lively. Anchor off Psarou or Agios Sostis, take the tender into Little Venice for sunset by the windmills, and make a morning trip to the ancient sanctuary of Delos next door.

Cyclades Yacht Charter
Whitewashed villages, volcanic coastlines and water in every shade of blue. The Cyclades are the classic picture of the Greek islands, and a yacht is the best way to see them.
In July and August the meltemi wind can blow hard across the Aegean. An experienced crew plans each day around it, finding sheltered anchorages and calm bays that the ferries never reach.

Highlights
Where your yacht will take you
Santorini
Drop anchor beneath the caldera cliffs and watch the famous sunset from the water, away from the crowds in Oia. Swim in the warm volcanic springs off Palea Kameni and visit the Red Beach by tender.
Milos
An island best seen from the sea. The sea caves and rock arches of Kleftiko are only reachable by boat, and the white lunar landscape of Sarakiniko is unforgettable. Milos has more than 70 beaches to choose from.
Andros
The green, northern Cycladic island, a short sail from Lavrion. Captains’ mansions in Chora, a fine modern art museum, mountain springs and some of the emptiest beaches in the Aegean, including Tis Grias to Pidima.
Sample Itinerary
7 days in the Cyclades by yacht
Every charter is planned around you. Use this route as a starting point; your captain will adapt it to the wind, the weather and your group.
When to Go
June and September are ideal, with warm seas and lighter winds. In July and August the meltemi can reach force 6 or more, so captains plan routes on the sheltered side of each island. Mykonos and Santorini are often visited on one-way charters.
