The best way to explore the Cyclades islands is on a catamaran charter, but if you’re travelling alone or in small groups, it’s even better to hop on a fully crewed catamaran, book only the cabins you need, and explore the islands in style!
With a professional English speaking skipper and hostess/first mate on board, all you need to do is sit back and enjoy the ride. Each day includes a swim-stop in a beautful location and evening ashore for dinner and to explore.

The Catamaran
The Lagoon 42 is a modern Catamaran with an experienced crew to sail you around its isles. Our catamaran may comfortably accommodate up to 8 guests, in 4 double bed cabins all with en-suite air conditioned facilities and a modern layout for a comfortable stay. You can book by the cabin or the whole yacht, if available!
Greek islands
With our selected itinerary you will have the chance to experience lesser known islands including Antiparos, Schoinoussa & Koufonissi, along with the larger and more famous islands of Naxos and Mykonos, sailing the following route: Paros – Antiparos – Blue Lagoon – Alimia – Hraklia – Schoinoussa – Koufonisi – Rina’s Cave – Alyko – Naxos – Rhenia – Delos – Mykonos – Krios – Paros. Overnights are on the islands of: Paros, Antiparos, Iraklia, Koufonisi, Naxos and Mykonos.
Daily schedule
There will be up to 2 swim stops every day, one in the morning and another at around noon time when lunch will be served. The schedule includes arriving early afternoon in each port, so you will have time to explore each destination. On-board prepared meals include fresh seasonal ingredients bought & prepared on each day, and will give you an insight into a home-made Greek cuisine.
Day 1
Embarkation is at 5.00 pm. Meet the crew on board the yacht in Paros port and settle in to your cabin. You will meet the other guests and discuss the planned itinerary and perhaps go out for a meal at a taverna together in Paros town.
Day 2
Set sail from Paros south towards Antiparos, a delightful island with a throbbing heart. You will stop for a swim off the boat in the beautiful azure seas. Overnight here and explore the beautiful beaches, vibrant bars and delicious restaurants in bougainvillea filled cobble streets.
Day 3
Today you will leave Antiparos in the early morning towards the sheltered waters of the Blue Lagoon off southern Paros, where you can have a swim. Following a short stop in Paros you will continue with a lunch stop planned in Alimia bay, where you can snorkel around a WWII German bomber which lies at 7 metres depth. In the afternoon you will arrive at the small island of Iraklia, where you`ll have the evening to explore this quiet and authentic island which only has a handful of permanent residents.
Day 4
A short sail to the island of Schinoussa, the second of the Small Cyclades islands you will visit, where the crew will drop anchor for some swimming and lunch on board in a small cove. In the afternoon sail towards Koufonissia where you will spend the night. This is a tiny island with numerous coves, crystal clear waters and some delightful tavernas in the winding village alleys.
Day 5
A longer sail today north again towards the larger island of Naxos, where you can stroll the old Venetian town and sample the delicious local cuisine and wines.
Day 6
As long as the notorious winds around this “windy isle” allow it, you will sail today northwards towards Mykonos, where you will have the afternoon and evening to explore all the famous scenery.
Day 7
Sailing south again, back towards Paros, where you will have your last lunch on board in the bay of Parikia, at a sheltered spot off Kiros beach before entering the port where you will disembark at 7.00 pm.

“The trip was INCREDIBLE! I’d been planning this trip for a long time and had high hopes – the trip met and exceeded all of my expectations! A few pieces of feedback:
- the boat was perfect! Such a great design, comfortable for our small group as we never felt like we were “on top of” each other (probably helped by only having three couples and the crew, so eight total instead of ten).
- the weather was excellent. Early June felt like the perfect time to go – warm weather, not too windy, lots of tourists but not as many as July and August
- the Aegean is amazing – such beautiful water, so clear, and nice and cool on a hot day
- the crew was the BEST!
- Kostos was an excellent captain and went “the extra mile” to make the trip great for us – he patiently answered my unending string of questions, he let me help with the sailing (I was the anchor man), and he worked hard to set a custom itinerary that gave us a mixture of bigger towns/harbors, and secluded settings. He also seemed to know all of the best bays that were perfect for swimming and enjoying the most beautiful spots of the Aegean
- Maria was awesome – like the fun older sister I never had! She was an incredible chef (her lunches on the boat were the highlights of our culinary experiences in Greece). She was so fun, interesting, personable and helpful that I can`t think of a better candidate for a cruise hostess. When we book again we`ll want to go on a trip with Maria!
Overall, we had a fantastic trip and I can`t thank you, Kostos, and Maria enough for helping us had an incredible 20th wedding anniversary. Let me know if/where I can leave a positive review so we can let others know how great this trip is!
Thanks again!
