Descrição do produto
If your idea of the perfect Greek island week is less about crowds and nightlife and more about tranquil bays, authentic villages, and the kind of natural beauty that feels quietly extraordinary, this “Hidden Cyclades” itinerary is designed for you. Departing from Athens Marina aboard the Sunseeker 75, you’ll travel through a curated set of islands that reward slower exploration: scenic harbors, hilltop Choras, culinary traditions, and dramatic coastlines - all experienced at a pace that feels genuinely restorative.
This is a weekly skippered and crewed charter, meaning your professional team handles navigation, mooring, daily operations, and itinerary optimization. The value is not only comfort - it’s confidence. The skipper can select the most protected anchorages, adjust passage timings for smooth conditions, and shape each day around what you enjoy most, whether that’s long swims, quiet beach time, local food experiences, or scenic walks. With 24/7 support and an organized service structure, the week feels seamless and premium from beginning to end.
About Our Service in Athens and the Western Cyclades
Embarkation takes place on Saturday afternoon at Athens Marina. After a welcome briefing and yacht orientation, you’ll depart at 17:00 and begin the transition into island life. The routing throughout the week is designed to balance comfort and discovery, with your skipper continuously adapting to conditions to keep every day enjoyable and safe.
Day 1 – Saturday | Athens Marina → Kea
A short evening cruise (around two hours) brings you to Kea, where the first night is relaxed and easy. Kea’s harbor atmosphere is perfect for settling in, enjoying a calm dinner, and letting the city pace fade away.
Day 2 – Sunday | Kea → Kythnos
Sunday’s cruise to Kythnos (around three hours) is typically enhanced with swim stops chosen for water clarity and shelter. Kythnos offers a laid-back Cycladic feel, ideal for guests who want to ease into the week rather than rush through it. The day may include time ashore in a small harbor town or a longer anchor session in a peaceful bay.
Day 3 – Monday | Kythnos → Serifos
Monday continues to Serifos with a four-hour cruise. Serifos is loved for its dramatic Chora - a hilltop village with a timeless layout of white lanes and panoramic sea views. Arriving with time to wander at golden hour is part of what makes Serifos special. The evening here feels atmospheric, calm, and authentically Cycladic.
Day 4 – Tuesday | Serifos → Sifnos
Tuesday’s cruise (around three hours) brings you to Sifnos, an island renowned for gastronomy and scenic trails. This is an excellent place to enjoy a food-focused evening ashore, as well as a relaxed day that blends water time with village exploration. Sifnos feels refined without being crowded - an ideal balance for guests seeking quality without the bustle.
Day 5 – Wednesday | Sifnos → Milos
Wednesday leads to Milos with a comfortable three-hour passage. Milos is famous for its unique coastline, sea caves, and beaches with striking geology. The skipper can prioritize scenic anchorages and swim stops that showcase Milos at its best, giving guests a sense of discovery that feels dramatic and distinctive compared to more uniform Cycladic landscapes.
Day 6 – Thursday | Milos → Kimolos
Thursday offers a short one-hour cruise to Kimolos, which provides a quiet, peaceful counterpoint to Milos’ dramatic energy. Kimolos is for guests who appreciate simplicity: clear water, calm bays, and unhurried time to swim and relax. It’s a day that often becomes a favorite because it feels like a true escape - the kind of place you wouldn’t easily experience without a private yacht.
Day 7 – Friday | Kimolos → Athens Marina
Friday is a longer return passage (around seven hours), typically planned with an early start and a comfortable onboard rhythm. The crew ensures the day remains enjoyable with hospitality, relaxed deck time, and the quiet satisfaction of a week that has felt calm, private, and deeply refreshing.
Day 8 – Saturday | Disembarkation
Disembarkation is at 09:00 after breakfast.
About Our Yacht – Sunseeker 75
The Sunseeker 75’s blend of comfort, layout, and performance makes her a perfect choice for this serene Cyclades route. Built in 2007 and extensively refitted in 2024, she offers a refined onboard environment designed around guest comfort. The yacht accommodates up to 8 guests in 4 en-suite cabins, offering the privacy that’s essential for a full week onboard. The Master and VIP suites, complemented by walk-in wardrobes, provide a “real living” feel rather than a temporary stay, while the convertible twin cabins allow flexible arrangements for families or friend groups.
Her twin 1,550 HP engines allow a cruising speed around 23 knots, enabling your skipper to keep the itinerary comfortable and responsive to conditions. Outdoor living is a highlight: multiple dining and lounge areas, an optional full shading setup on the upper deck for midday comfort, and a submersible bathing platform that makes swim stops effortless. Evenings feel special thanks to the yacht’s underwater lights, creating a calm, luxurious atmosphere when anchored in quiet bays.
Closing Message
What makes this “Hidden Cyclades” charter one of the best ways to cruise from Athens is the quality of the escape it creates. These islands are not chosen for hype - they are chosen for beauty, authenticity, and the feeling of discovering Greece beyond the obvious. With a professional crew managing every operational detail, you enjoy an experience that’s smoother, safer, and more flexible than a self-managed charter, while still remaining private and tailored to your group. If you want a week defined by tranquil waters, scenic villages, food culture, and unspoiled coastlines - delivered with premium comfort aboard a refitted Sunseeker 75 - this itinerary stands out as a genuinely restorative Greek yachting holiday that many competitors simply cannot match.
