Mykonos is the most-booked charter base in the Cyclades, a cluster of marinas and beach bays inside one of the easiest sailing grounds in Greece. From Tourlos Marina you reach the archaeological island of Delos in 30 minutes, Rhenia's empty white-sand coves in under an hour, and Paros or Naxos in a half-day. The Meltemi wind blows steady from the north in July and August, so most operators offer a captain by default, but a calm morning is the right time to head out for snorkeling on your own RIB. Whether you want a luxury motor yacht with chef and jet skis or a bareboat sailing catamaran for the week, Mykonos has the deepest supply of boats in the Aegean.

June and September give you warm seas, lighter winds and lower prices. July and August are busiest with the strongest Meltemi.

Most luxury motor yachts include a captain and crew. Sailing yachts and catamarans are usually offered bareboat or with a skipper for around €220 per day extra.

Day charters start around $190 per hour for a RIB, $410 per day for a catamaran and $1,480 per day for a luxury motor yacht. Week charters drop the daily rate by 20 to 30 percent.

Where do boats depart from?
