Description
Starting in Paros at a premium, easy-access marina, this route favors sculpted coastlines, tranquil anchorages, and quietly charismatic villages. Across seven days you’ll arc through Sifnos’ sandy coves, Folegandros’ cliffside drama, Milos’ volcanic sculptures, the sapphire recesses of Polyegos, the slow-time charm of Kimolos, the vistas of Serifos, and a final pause in Antiparos before returning to Paros with salt-dried smiles and a camera roll full of color.
About Our Service in the Cyclades
This is a private bareboat charter shaped entirely around your preferences. Follow the suggested plan or redraw it as weather and whim suggest.

Day 1 – Embarkation in Paros (17:00)
Step aboard in Parikia or Naoussa, complete the yacht handover, and stow your provisions. As evening colors the harbor, enjoy a relaxed dinner ashore or a simple meal in the cockpit. Overnight in the marina or a nearby sheltered bay for a quiet first night on the water.
Day 2 – Paros → Sifnos (Platy Gialos) – 23 NM
Make a comfortable first passage to Sifnos. Pause for a midday swim in a protected cove, then anchor near Platy Gialos for easy beach access. Explore Apollonia’s narrow lanes and artisan boutiques before returning to the yacht for a serene night at anchor.
Day 3 – Sifnos → Folegandros – 20 NM
Sail to Folegandros, an island of rugged cliffs and knockout views. Swim in clear water around Karavostasis, then head up to Chora, where white alleys twist towards the church of Panagia. Sunset from the ridge is unforgettable—linger, then descend for dinner in a tucked-away courtyard taverna.
Day 4 – Folegandros → Milos – 30 NM
Aim for Milos and its palette of volcanic whites and ochres. Anchor near Adamas or along a calm stretch for water play, then visit Sarakiniko’s lunar chalk formations or the pretty harbor of Pollonia. Combine local cheeses with fresh fish for dinner, either ashore or in your cockpit with the cliffs glowing in last light.
Day 5 – Milos → Polyegos & Kimolos – 20 NM
A day for secluded bays and translucent water. Polyegos, mostly uninhabited, offers pristine anchorages and luminous caves. Continue to Kimolos for a slow amble through Chorio’s lanes and a taverna meal that tastes of the island—simple, fresh, and generous.
Day 6 – Kimolos → Serifos – 20 NM
Sail to Serifos, anchoring in Livadi or a nearby cove. Climb to Chora for panoramic views that sweep across the archipelago, then drop back down for a quiet swim and a relaxed evening. Serifos rewards unhurried wandering and early nights beneath a canopy of stars.
Day 7 – Serifos → Antiparos → Paros – 27 NM + 2 NM
Turn toward Antiparos for a last crystalline swim and a stroll through its pocket-sized town, then make the short hop back to Paros. Enjoy a farewell dinner ashore and a slow harbor walk before returning to the yacht for one final night aboard.
Day 8 – Disembarkation in Paros (09:00)
After breakfast, complete checkout by 09:00. With your track curled neatly across the chart and a week of anchorages behind you, step ashore with the Aegean still glittering in your wake.
