Mykonos Access — Under Sail
This is the charter for people who want the sailing itself, not a platform that happens to float. The engine goes off once you clear the harbour wall and the loudest thing aboard becomes the water along the hull. We keep one sailing yacht rather than a brochure full of them: Ocean Star 51, 15.5 metres, 2 crew, up to 10 guests, out of Old Port, Mykonos. If what you want is a fast tour of the beaches, this is honestly the wrong page.
Prices are for the whole boat with its crew, not per person — and they are a starting point, not a quote: the same boat is not priced the same for four guests and for twelve, and the season moves it again. Tell us the date and how many of you are coming and we come back with one fixed price for the day.
You leave in the morning and the skipper sets a course that works with the wind rather than against it — usually across to Rhenia, anchoring over sand with Delos in sight, then home in the afternoon with the meltemi behind you. Expect the boat to heel: fifteen or twenty degrees is normal and entirely safe, but glasses slide and the first hour takes getting used to. At anchor she sits flat and the swimming is as good as anywhere on the island.
You are not crew and nothing is expected of you, though most people end up on the helm at some point. If flat decks matter more than sails, look at our catamarans instead; if speed matters most, the rest of the fleet covers more ground in a day.
Every boat we charter in Mykonos, grouped by what it is good at.
A full day is €3,000 for the whole boat, crew and fuel for the standard route included. A full week with the crew starts at €18,000, which works out cheaper per day than any single-day charter. Rates are indicative until we have your date.
None. The yacht comes with 2 professional crew who do the work; you are welcome to take the wheel or trim a sheet, and equally welcome to lie on the foredeck and do nothing at all.
Under sail, yes — that is how a monohull works. Fifteen to twenty degrees is normal and the boat is built for far more. If someone in the group will not enjoy that, we would rather move you to a catamaran than have you find out at sea.
Yes — that is the classic route, and under sail it takes the morning rather than an hour. You get the crossing itself as part of the day instead of a transfer between two swim stops. In a strong meltemi the skipper may choose the south coast instead.
Older children usually love it. For toddlers, or for a group where several people are nervous about the sea, a catamaran is the calmer choice — tell us who is coming and we will say so honestly.
Send us your date, how many of you are coming and what you want the day to feel like. We come back with the boat that fits and the full price for the day.
