How Much Does It Cost to Charter a Yacht in Mykonos?

The base fee is the same as in Athens. What Mykonos adds is a delivery leg, the dearest berth in Greece in August, and the Meltemi. All three can be written down.

Last updated September 2026

Where the Mykonos money goes

Not into the base fee. The owners of the crewed yachts of Greece quote one rate card for the yacht wherever she goes; Mykonos does not have a tariff. A party comparing a Mykonos quote against an Athens quote for the same yacht should see the same base, and if it does not, the difference has a name. Into the delivery and the APA. Boarding in Mykonos means the yacht has made her way from Athens for you, 95 nautical miles, which is a line on the proposal. And a Mykonos week spends more: the berth at the new port or Tourlos in August is the dearest in Greece, the crossings to Paros and Naxos are long, and the Meltemi from mid-July makes them longer under sail. The APA estimate for a Mykonos week should sit at the top of the range for the yacht type, and a house that writes it there is being honest. The way around it. Board in Athens, sleep at Kea the first night, and be in Mykonos for the second afternoon with no delivery, then spend the week in the islands around it, Delos and Rhenia, Paros, Naxos, the Small Cyclades, with one night on the Mykonos quay and the rest at anchor. This house writes both versions and says which it would choose for your party. Who you are dealing with. George Yachts Brokerage House LLC is a United States company, registered in Wyoming, with its brokerage desk in Athens, a few minutes from the marinas the yachts leave from. It is a boutique house: one broker, George P. Biniaris, Founder and Managing Broker, a licensed sailing skipper with a powerboat licence valid to 25 metres, handles every file himself, from the first message to the quay on check-in day, and is reachable on WhatsApp at +1 786 798 8798. The house is listed as an IYBA Charter Active Member, writes every charter on the MYBA form of agreement, was featured in Forbes in May 2026, and holds a 5.0 rating on Google. The APA, the VAT at each yacht's certified rate and the gratuity are set out line by line in every proposal, so nothing arrives as a surprise.

When the Mykonos weeks go for 2027

Mykonos in late July and August is the most requested week in Greece on the 20 to 24 metre catamarans with a chef and the 30 metre motor yachts; they go a year ahead. Peak weeks for July and August 2027 are being contracted now, in the autumn of 2026; the five and six cabin yachts go first. Nine to fourteen months ahead for a peak week, six to nine for June and late September, three to four for May and October. Booking early buys first choice of yacht and week rather than a discount.

George's insider notes

  • Ask for the delivery on its own line and the base unchanged; that is the honest Mykonos quote.
  • One night at the quay, six at anchor; Rhenia and the south coast bays are the Mykonos week.
  • The first ten days of July are the calm window before the Meltemi; September is the other.
  • Delos is a morning by tender from Rhenia, before the day boats arrive at eleven.

Frequently asked

Questions we get about How Much Does It Cost to Charter a Yacht in Mykonos?

How much does it cost to charter a yacht in Mykonos?

The same base fee as from Athens, from EUR 17,000 a week for a 15 metre crewed catamaran, plus the delivery from Athens on its own line and a higher APA for the berth and the crossings; about EUR 42,000 to 48,000 all in on a 20 metre catamaran with a chef and EUR 52,000 to 58,000 on a 27 metre motor yacht.

Is it cheaper to board in Athens and sail to Mykonos?

Yes, by the delivery line; a yacht that boards in Athens reaches Mykonos on the second afternoon with a night at Kea or Kythnos on the way.

Why is the APA higher for a Mykonos week?

The berth at the new port or Tourlos in August is the dearest in Greece, the crossings to Paros and Naxos are long, and the Meltemi makes them longer; the estimate sits at the top of the range for the yacht type.

What islands go with Mykonos in a week?

Delos and Rhenia, Tinos, Paros and Antiparos, Naxos and the Small Cyclades, Ios; the captain shapes the order to the wind.

Can we stay on the quay in Mykonos every night?

You can, at the cost of the dearest berth in Greece every night; the captains recommend one night on the quay and the rest at anchor off Rhenia and the south coast.

How do I get a Mykonos quote?

WhatsApp +1 786 798 8798 or george@georgeyachts.com with the dates and the party; two or three real yachts with the base, the delivery, the VAT and the APA estimate for a Mykonos week come back within twenty-four hours.
