Sailing Greece - Mykonos to Athens

Mykonos → Athens 8 days Up to 10

About this trip

Eight days sailing the Aegean aboard a 57ft yacht, starting in Mykonos and finishing in Athens. An experienced skipper handles the sailing, though you're welcome to get hands-on if you fancy learning the ropes.

The days settle into a rhythm of deserted bays, swimming stops, and time on deck, broken up with visits to archaeological sites and plenty of local seafood along the way.

It's a small-group trip built around the boat itself — sailing, sunbathing, and island time rather than a packed itinerary.

What you'll do

  • Sail from Mykonos to Athens aboard a 57ft yacht
  • Anchor in deserted bays for swimming and snorkelling
  • Visit archaeological sites along the route
  • Try your hand at sailing under an experienced skipper
  • Eat local seafood in island tavernas
  • Hike and explore ashore between sailing legs
Good to know
  • Easy pace, with time built in for relaxing as well as activity
  • Good fit if you want a boat-based trip rather than a different hotel each night
What travellers actually say

Worth it if you want genuine sailing experience with strong skipper leadership. Think twice if you need predictable itineraries or prefer booking direct.

  • Skipper Mikel consistently praised for knowledge, accommodation, and making non-swimmers feel safe and included.
  • Daily island stops with multiple berths allow real exploration of ruins, ports, and lesser-known islands.
  • Direct booking with operator significantly worse experience than booking through intermediary like Tour Radar.
  • Rough seas possible early on; trip handles beginners well but sailing conditions are real, not sanitised.
