1. Mykonos Catamaran Sailing Cruises
Overall Ratings
5 based on 94 reviews
The top excursion in Mykonos! Alternative, unforgettable sailing tour from Mykonos on a stable and safe catamaran. Sail to the surrounding Islands of Delos & Rhenia. Swim and snorkel in the fantastic turquoise waters of the Aegean Sea, away from the crowds! Outstanding service, delicious mediterranean cuisine cooked on-board. Real sailing, a lot of fun in the sun... Chill out on our catamaran!

We went out this June privately with Mykonos Catamaran - for just myself, my husband and our 18 year old daughter. We chose the sunset sail - and were picked up by a private driver at our hotel at 3:15 PM and returned at about 9:00 PM. The catamaran is large and luxurious. We felt incredibly pampered.
We were taken to a beach on a small island, where we were able to get out and swim to shore. We also sailed closely by Delos, which was incredible and lovely. The only down side was that our crew had not been on Mykonos long - and they did not know much about the history of Delos - so they couldn't tell us much about the island or what we were looking at. I asked about a few sites and buildings that we could see from the catamaran - but they said they had no idea. Still, it was something to see, even from the water. I'm sure you could learn a lot by taking a tour of the island. However, I have also heard that it can be hot and dusty and without any shade - so seeing it from the water had it's perks as we drifted along in the cool sunset with a nice breeze. Should we return to Mykonos - I would do the same catamaran again - and I would also do the walking tour of Delos as I'm sure it's fascinating.
The two member crew could not have been nicer! They allowed us to determine where we wanted to go and what we wanted to do and if we wanted to swim or sail.
And the dinner, which was expertly cooked for us on the boat - was out of this world! We all loved everything. There was enough food for 20 people easily! So many different dishes to choose from! As I've stated in other reviews - we love the tomato balls/fritters in Greece! Just awesome. And the wine flowed. The sunset was gorgeous and we never felt more relaxed. As the sun set and the air became cool - the crew gave us blankets to snuggle up in. It was perfect...
I have to mention that we were celebrating our daughter's 18th birthday - and the crew supplied us with an incredible cake for her! They gave us a choice of chocolate or caramel cake. We chose the caramel - and it was a great choice. She loved it and was very surprised - especially when they put on a funny birthday song and brought out a crazy birthday hat for her to wear. It was hysterical and she laughed and blushed through it all.
They also had great music playing the whole cruise - just right!
It all made for such a special and unique and truly memorable evening! It was so much more memorable than simply sitting in yet another restaurant for dinner, especially considering we were in restaurants every day and night of our 11 day trip to Greece! This night was worth every penny and more! All 3 of us agreed that it was money well spent and we would do it all the same way again!
We could have saved money and gone out as part of a shared group. However, we've done private boats and shared in the past. And the two experiences are very different. The group can be fun. But we loved having the catamaran to ourselves... It's really a very special experience being out on the water with just your family or friends - and sometimes that difference can turn a "fun" experience - into an "unforgettable" experience...
The best part for my daughter, who is a sailor, is that she was allowed to steer the vessel for quite a bit of the sail coming in. She has such amazing memories from doing that. When else would she have an opportunity to actually sail a giant catamaran around the Greek Islands, steering it all on her own, Greek music softly playing in the background? The photos we have of her at the wheel - she is absolutely glowing - and it isn't just the sunset!
I can still close my eyes and feel the sunset as we sailed along the water and took in Mykonos and its surrounding Islands. It's such a different experience than you would ever get by staying on the land.
We can't thank Mykonos Catamaran enough for being a highlight of our trip - and possibly our favorite day and memory in all of our trip to Greece. We experienced some wonderful days and nights in Greece - so the bar is set high. But our daughter would tell you, hands down, that this was the pinnacle of our entire trip! And I speak for all of us when I sum it up with one word: Magical.

Lovely beach, check out the prices of the beach chairs outside each restaurant because they do vary in price. We chose ones which were free provided you purchased a drink. The waiters did not badger us to buy more and it was very easy to call them over whenever you wanted serving. Most restaurants/bars offer lovely club sandwiches, great with beer or orange juice !

Rent a motor boat in Mykonos , be captain for a day , visit the most famous Beaches or the most secret ones driving your own motor boat..no license needed
Reviewed By Saleh K
This is ultimately the most recommended experience to try in Mykonos if you have basic skills to drive a small boat. Driving this small boat is extremely easy, fun and safe even with strong wind
Excellent value for what you get.
The boat is fully equipped and even has an emergency engine . The owner gives you a snorkeling kit for diving and a mobile for emergency.
Matina(ower) is very friendly and helpful and she was giving me weather update before my arrival to Mykonos. When receiving the boat she gave her full time to explain everything on driving the boat.
Matina is very professional and friendly.
I recommend this experience for couples, friends and family as you literally feel you own the sea and visit any beach you want while cruising along the island.

SUNSEEKER MANHATTAN 52′ Endless moments at sea, viewing the blue horizon at daytime and a sky full of stars at night. In the early morning, sipping your coffee, wearing your swimsuit, heading for a dive. Only you and your fellows can discover the remote and mysterious bays of the most popular and lively Greek Islands.

We went on a cruise today on the Funseeker. It was wonderful. The yacht is beautiful, and the captain and crew could have not been more friendly or helpful. We took my three year old with us to tour Delos. After we toured the ruins, we went to a nice cove for a swim.
On board they had a TV with cartoons for her to watch. They served a delicious lunch and we enjoyed a bottle of wine. No detail was missed. Totally an incredible experience. I would highly recommend this yacht and her crew.

I've met Alexandros and Theo last year when I went in Mykonos and I had one of the best days in my life on board with them. The sandy Beaches, the blue waters and the Mediterranean food gave me a day full of joy and happiness. The captain is very experienced and the daily cruise to Dilos, Rineia and Mykonos is the perfect combination of History, crystal clear remote Beaches and cosmopolitan rhythms. Worth every penny and I am sure that I will visit again Alexandros and Theo on board and sail for new experiences. 100% recommended guys, you will enjoy the cruise.

We rent boats for visiting the south Beaches of Mykonos and Rhenis, Delos. No licence needed. The biggest (4,90 m), the strongest (30 HP) and safest (Trekker GPS).
Reviewed By discerningone1 - Auckland Central, New Zealand
30 hp boat that takes 6 passengers. Boat is in excellent condition and comes with fuel, plus additional supply, map, license and a cool box. We explored the South side of the island as it was windy first thing and the North gets choppier. Found some isolated coves and Beaches along with some nice beach clubs offering jet ski hire. When the wind dropped we explored the North which offer shingle Beaches, viewing Little Venice and the windmills by water. Great day - 250€ for a full day

We had an 8 hour cruise at the South Coast of Mykonos during our trip this August, and what we can say is that these guys really know what greek hospitality is! They helped as a lot with the booking procedure, since we booked the excursion while abroad, they picked us up from the Hotel we were staying at and they even offered us complimentary drinks on board! The captain, Zoe, was always there to give us information on the different Beaches we visited and she recommended us a restaurant with an incredible view for lunch!
Highly recommended!
