Motor Yacht Charter Mykonos
The Mykonos charter that survives August. Air-conditioned, stabilised, fast enough for Delos by dawn and Antiparos by dinner.
Last updated September 2026
Why motor yachts dominate Mykonos charters
Best suited for
- Mykonos-based weeks with multiple Cycladic destinations
- Charters that include Delos archaeological site day-trip
- August charters when Meltemi makes sailing yachts uncomfortable
- Repeat Mykonos visitors stepping up from hotel weeks
- UHNW principals arriving via Mykonos airport direct flights
When to book
Mykonos motor yacht weeks book 6 to 12 months ahead for July and August, the Greek Charter Index 2026 lead time. June and September are the most-bookable shoulder weeks with rates 15 to 25% below peak on the Index, the Meltemi has softened, the chora is quieter, the beach clubs still operational. May and October are possible but the season is winding down; some boats reposition out by mid-October.
George's insider notes
- Anchor at Ornos rather than the New Port - quieter, cleaner water, tender to the chora.
- Two tenders on the boat matters more in Mykonos than anywhere else. One for guest transfers, one for the chef's market runs. The count is on each yacht's rate card.
- Delos is a morning: anchor at dawn, walk the site from opening, back to Ornos for lunch. The captain checks the season's opening hours the day before.
- Mykonos marina berths in peak season are among the most expensive in Greece and are paid from the APA. Anchor at Ornos instead unless boarding or disembarking.
- Naoussa on Paros for dinner is the yacht-set route: 30 nautical miles, a harbour of tavernas on the water, back to a Mykonos lee for the night.
