There are many ways to explore the Island of the Winds and taste its charms, one of them giving you the chance to cruise the cobalt waters of the Mediterranean Sea and pamper yourself with unsurpassable views of a mil shades of blue. Eagerly anticipating getting started? Here are 3 boat tours and yacht cruiser excursions worth considering for indelible Mykonos experiences that you would have otherwise missed!
1. Beach tour
Being a Greek island, Mykonos is surrounded by charming sandy beaches and sugary shores with azure waters. Depending on your mood and the kind of beach adventure you seek, there are several different boat tours to choose from. For example, you could opt for a south coast beach safari that will introduce you to the party meccas, namely Paradise, Super Paradise, and Paraga beaches. Nearby are also other renowned, cosmopolitan and less crowded shores, the likes of Psarrou, Agia Anna, Ornos, Elia, and Agrari.
Or you could go with a boat tour around more inaccessible options, such as hidden coves and isolated beaches. Even a cruise to the neighbouring Delos island where you can both visit the archaeological sites and have the sun-kissed beaches all by yourself.
2. Heading to Delos and Rhenia islands
Let your skipper know of your desire to explore the closest Mykonos siblings – Delos and Rhenia islands - and they will organise the best custom-made cruise for you. Usually, such excursions include a visit to the Delos Archaeological Museum and the Delos open-air museum that’s showered by the Apollonian light (as many visitors admit after visiting the island).
Expect to lay eyes on rare artifacts, such as inscriptions, sculptures, vessels, and statuettes, alongside religious sites and sanctuaries dedicated to God Apollo and his sister Goddess Artemis. Also, the once inhabited island of Delos that was a cultural and commerce hub in the Mediterranean was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1990. A short boat ride there will prove to you that Delos definitely deserved this recognition.
3. Sunset cruises
Although Santorini is renowned for its sunset views, Mykonos does not fall short either. In fact, sailing the crystalline Aegean Sea just before sunset will give you enchanting vistas of the descending sun that you can enjoy with a chilled glass of champagne at hand or even a BBQ meal on board the vessel.
A dreamy option around the full moon of the summer that’s so impressive and jaw-dropping that it can make your heart stop. While here, feel free to let yourself drift to other realms and worlds far away from our 3D reality.
4. Private Tour with “Prince De Neufchâtel”
If you are among the lucky ones and have chosen Kivotos 5 Star Hotels Mykonos for your summer holidays, you can take the overall experience to an entirely different level. The luxury hotel offers fine private dining onboard the privately-owned “Prince De Neufchatel” yacht that’s anchored in scenic Ornos bay. Of course, you can choose to sail off into the archipelago and see where the currents will take you!
Needless to say, all of the above boat tours can be tailor-made per your requirements (either privately or as a group), so you can explore Mykonos at your own pace and create indelible memories as you discover the magnificence of this beautiful island in the Cyclades.
Have fun!
