Milos Yacht Charter

Known as the ‘island of colours’, Milos graces the southwest Cyclades with lava-sculpted cliffs brushed in alabaster, ochre and ash. Over seventy-five beaches - the Aegean’s richest tally - reveal discreet coves, moon-white arches and postcard fishing hamlets reachable only by tender. Birthplace of the famed Venus de Milo, the island fuses classical heritage with modern indulgence: boutique hideaways, candlelit tavernas and promenades. Curated itineraries sweep toward Polyaigos, Kimolos and Sifnos, unveiling untouched horizons and unhurried village life reserved for those arriving under sail. A discerning fleet - from carbon-rigged catamarans to trophy-winning superyachts - awaits from spring through late autumn, ensuring smooth passages to secluded anchorages across the Aegean.

Milos offers stunning landscapes, including white sandy beaches, azure waters, and unique rock formations. The island’s cruising season runs from May to October. With water sports, charming villages and churches, and premium docking facilities in Adamas, it caters to luxury seekers, adventure enthusiasts, and families, delivering a perfect mix of relaxation and exploration.

Milos boasts outstanding yacht rental regions like Adamas, the main port with lively nightlife; Kleftiko, famous for its sea caves and turquoise waters; Sarakiniko, known for its moon-like volcanic landscape; Pollonia, a quiet fishing village near Kimolos; Firopotamos, with its picturesque charm; West Coast with dramatic cliffs; and nearby Polyaigos and Glaronisia islands, perfect for exploring secluded beaches and tranquil settings.

Milos has a couple of marinas that cater to yacht charter enthusiasts. 

Adamas Port (Adhamas): Located near the town of Adamas, this is the primary port of Milos. It accommodates various vessels and serves as a hub for ferry and yacht traffic. The port is surrounded by local shops, restaurants, and services, making it a convenient base for exploring the island.

Pollonia Marina: Situated on the northeastern coast, Pollonia is a charming fishing village with a small marina. It's an ideal spot for mooring smaller yachts and boats, delivering a tranquil environment away from busier ports. The area is known for its picturesque waterfront and excellent seafood tavernas.

Yacht charter prices in Milos are influenced by factors such as yacht type, rental duration, and the season. The highest rates typically occur during the peak summer months of July and August, when demand is at its peak. For a more affordable experience, the shoulder seasons - April to June and September to October - are recommended, as the weather remains pleasant and the island is less crowded. While week-long charters are popular, booking for longer periods can provide better value, often with added discounts. To secure the best yachts and prices, it's advisable to make reservations in advance. However, those with flexible schedules may find last-minute bookings at a reduced price, though yacht availability could be limited.

When organizing a yacht rental in Milos, keep in mind that VAT is typically added to the base price at 13%. Additionally, most charters require an Advance Provisioning Allowance (APA), which generally ranges from 30-45% of the charter fee. This amount covers expenses like fuel, provisions, docking fees, and other onboard costs. Any unspent APA funds are refunded, while any extra charges are settled separately, ensuring a seamless and tailored sailing experience in the beautiful waters surrounding Milos.

The ideal time for a yacht charter around Milos is from May to October, with the peak season taking place in July and August. During the summer, the Festival of Milos also takes place, celebrating the island's rich culture with music, dance, and local traditions. For those seeking a quieter experience, May and June offer warm temperatures, calm seas, and a more peaceful atmosphere. As the summer winds down, September and October provide pleasant weather and excellent sailing conditions, making them perfect for a luxurious getaway.
