Mykonos Yacht Charter

Mykonos is an island of contrasts. Here, sharp white architecture rises against soft sands; secluded coves give way to world-renowned beach clubs. The coastline seems to be made for lingering gazes and slow, deliberate strolls. In the narrow streets and quiet harbors, history lingers — faint echoes of seafarers, old trade routes, and the civilizations that once called the island home. With an extended cruising season from May to October and a fleet designed for every taste, it remains the touchstone for those drawn to sophistication, exclusivity, and open-water adventure.

Yacht charter in Mykonos combines azure waters, sunlit beaches and the world's best beach clubs with seamless island hopping through the Cyclades. Classic sites like the Kato Mili windmills add to its luxury and beautiful whitewashed aesthetic. With high-quality marinas and easy access year-round, the island creates unforgettable travel experiences. Mykonos is a playground for water sports and tailor-made itineraries, suited for a variety of discerning clientele—those looking for tranquility, adventure, or exclusive parties.

Mykonos has a different yacht charter destination for everybody. Chora has a captivating bay, winding streets, and a cosmopolitan atmosphere, while Little Venice has the best seats in the house for the world's most beautiful sunsets over the Aegean. Ornos Bay and Psarou Beach are the "yachting hot spots," both offering high-end dining options and exclusive beach clubs such as Nammos. Super Paradise beach and Paraga Beach entertain on an even larger scale. Those who want peace and solitude, can visit the quiet beaches on Rhenia Island, or experience the wonders on Delos, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Mykonos has a number of premier marinas that cater to private yachts.

Mykonos New Port (Tourlos) welcomes around 222 yachts up to 25 meters. It has top service options, as well as transport to Mykonos Town.

Mykonos Old Port is located in the centre of Chora and suits yachts up to 25 meters. Essential services are available at this lively port, which is in the heart of Chora Mykonos.

Though Psarou and Paraga Anchoring spots are not full-service marinas, these bays are favored mooring locations for luxury yachts in season. In particular, Psarou is known for beach clubs and being close to Mykonos Town (both of which carry a lot of convenience and status).

The cost of yacht rentals in Mykonos varies based on the yacht type, charter duration, and time of year. Summer peak prices are seen in July and August due to high demand. Budget options are seen in the shoulder seasons of spring (April-May) and autumn (September-October) for nice weather and crowds. A week-long charter is typical. Longer bookings, in turn, may come with reduced daily rates. Booking early ensures the best selection and pricing, although last-minute deals might be available for those with flexible schedules, albeit with limited options.

Mykonos applies a 13% VAT to the charter fee. Then there’s the APA—Advance Provisioning Allowance—typically 30 to 45% of the charter fee, set aside for fuel, provisioning, berths, and any extras that come up along the way. Any unused funds are refunded, while any overages are invoiced separately.

From May through October, yacht charters in Mykonos are most popular, with July and August being the busiest months. In May and June, the Greek island takes on a more intimate, peaceful vibe thanks to warmer weather, fewer tourists, and calmer waves. By September and October, the weather is milder and the seas remain pleasant, offering a more leisurely cruise with moderate winds and longer daylight.

Mykonos unites sun-soaked beaches, boisterous nightlife, and unforgettable Cycladic charm. The pristine waters and luxurious yachts will make island hopping a breeze. Incredible dining options and renowned beach clubs ensure that you will enjoy every moment on the island. All you have to do is hop on and enjoy the breathtaking views, secret coves, and deluxe experiences.
