Last updated September 2026
Why superyachts dominate Mykonos's UHNW charter market
Best suited for
- UHNW repeat clients moving from 25-30 metre to superyacht class
- Celebrity charters needing maximum privacy in Mykonos
- Multi-generational charters with 8-12 family members on one platform
- Long-stay charters (10-14 nights) covering Cyclades + Dodecanese
- Hosted charters for corporate or sovereign principals requiring discretion
When to book
Mid-July to early September is peak superyacht season in Mykonos. On the Greek Charter Index the peak weeks on yachts above 40 metres commit a year or more ahead, and the mid-August weeks go first. Late May to early July and mid-September to mid-October are shoulder seasons at the low end of each Index band with full superyacht service intact.
George's insider notes
- Mykonos marina has limited 30+ metre slots. Most superyachts anchor at Ornos or Mykonos Bay rather than dock.
- Two tenders matters in Mykonos. One for guest evening transfers (to Nammos, Scorpios, the Chora), one for crew provisioning. Below 30m yachts usually have one tender; superyachts almost always two.
- Provisioning in Mykonos is restaurant-quality but expensive. Brief the chef on specific ingredient sources; some restaurant kitchens accept yacht orders.
- Crew gratuity convention is 10 to 15% of the base rate. For a superyacht above 50 metres at EUR 200,000 a week on the Index, that is EUR 20,000 to 30,000, handed to the captain on the final morning.
- Helicopter touch-and-go is possible from yachts above 40 metres. Mykonos airport is 5 minutes by helicopter; useful for late-arriving or early-departing guests.
Frequently asked
Questions we get about Superyacht Charter Mykonos
How much does a Mykonos superyacht charter cost?
On the Greek Charter Index 2026 a 26 to 31 metre motor yacht lists at EUR 35,900 to 75,000 a week net base, a 35 to 40 metre at EUR 59,900 to 150,000 and the yachts above 50 metres at EUR 162,500 to 235,000, before APA of 30 to 40% and Greek VAT at the certified rate.

Can a 40-metre superyacht dock in Mykonos marina?
Limited slots. Most 40m+ yachts anchor at Ornos or the outer bay and tender to the chora. Marina dockage for 40m+ is typically only for boarding/disembarkation, not for nightly stays.
Is helicopter operation possible?
Only on a yacht with a certified helideck, and none on this list carries one. Guests reach the yacht from Mykonos airport by car to Ornos or Tourlos and then by tender, which is how the discreet arrivals actually happen. We do not coordinate helicopter operations.
What's a typical 7-night Mykonos superyacht itinerary?
Day 1 boarding and Ornos sunset. Day 2 Delos and Rhenia. Day 3-4 Paros (Naoussa). Day 5 Folegandros. Day 6-7 return to Mykonos via Antiparos. About 120-150 nm. Superyachts can extend to Santorini (extra 60 nm south) in 10-14 night charters.
