Mykonos Catamaran Cruise: Rhenia, Delos & Snorkeling with Meal

Five hours on the water: snorkeling in Cycladic blue, a pass-by view of ancient Delos, and lunch freshly cooked in the galley.

A five-hour catamaran cruise from Mykonos aboard the White Coral or Aerial, sailing to Rhenia or the Mykonian south coast with stops for swimming and snorkeling. The route passes Delos, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, weather permitting. A three-course meal prepared on board, wine, beer and soft drinks are included, along with snorkeling equipment and water toys. Hotel pickup is available if you provide your location 24 hours before departure.

Step-by-step itinerary

• Cruise to Rhenia or Mykonian southern coast
• Relax, swim, dive, and use water toys
• Pass by the island of Delos
• View UNESCO World Heritage archaeological site

The experience

The White Coral and Aerial are brand-new sailing catamarans built for space and comfort: walk-around decks, large sun-beds and lounge areas mean you're not crowded even when the boat is full. The itinerary shifts with the weather: the captain may head to Rhenia, the quieter island across the water, or to Mykonos's southern coast, both offering the same clear Cycladic water and room to swim, dive and explore. If conditions allow, you'll pass Delos on the way, close enough to see the archaeological monuments of the UNESCO site without landing.

Snorkeling gear is provided, and if the weather holds, you can also use the kayaks and SUP boards stowed on deck. The boat carries water toys for anyone who wants to play between swims. A chef works in the galley throughout the day, preparing a three-course meal that comes out fresh. Wine, beer and soft drinks flow alongside. WiFi is live on board, though most people leave their phones in their bags.

Hotel pickup and return are included if you text or message your pickup location and a phone number to the operator up to 24 hours before the cruise starts. You'll get the details the evening before. Embarkation and disembarkation happen via a tender boat, a small ferry that ferries passengers between the catamaran and the shore. The whole day runs five hours from start to finish.

Top questions

What languages is the tour guided in?

Live guide in English and Greek.

What happens if it rains?

It may be canceled due to bad weather. If that happens, you're offered another date or a refund. Free cancellation up to 24 h before the start.

What's the difference between sailing to Rhenia and going to Mykonos's south coast?

The captain chooses based on weather and sea conditions on the day. Rhenia is a quieter, less-visited island across from Mykonos. The southern coast stays closer to home but offers the same swimming and snorkeling water. Both routes include a pass-by view of Delos if conditions permit.

Is snorkeling equipment included, or do I need to bring my own?

Masks and snorkels are provided on board. If you have your own gear and prefer it, you're welcome to bring it, but you won't need to.

Can I bring my own towel, or is one provided?

Towels are not included with the cruise, so bring one from your hotel or rent one separately if you need it.

What happens if the weather turns bad on the day of the cruise?

The itinerary is subject to weather and may be adjusted to ensure safe cruising. The captain will decide on the morning of the cruise whether to sail to Rhenia, the south coast, or another route, and will communicate any changes to passengers.

Do I need to arrange my own transport to the boat, or is pickup included?

Hotel pickup and return are included if you provide your pickup location and a phone number up to 24 hours before the cruise starts. You'll receive pickup details via text or WhatsApp the evening before. If you don't arrange this in time, you'll need to make your own way to the departure point.
