Mykonos Catamaran Sunset Cruise: Full Meal & Open Bar

Sail to Delos and Rinia, then anchor in a quiet cove for dinner under the sunset

A private catamaran cruise from Mykonos that sails to the islands of Delos and Rinia (or along the south coast if the wind shifts), with two swimming and snorkeling stops in unspoiled coves. The boat carries a chef who prepares an eight-flavor Mediterranean dinner on board using fresh seafood and olive oil; an open bar serves beer, white wine, sodas and water throughout. The five-hour voyage includes snorkeling gear and a welcome glass of Prosecco, with a live English-speaking crew.

The Experience

The catamaran departs from Ornos Bay, where the crew meets you at the dock and runs a safety briefing before hoisting sail. The first hour is pure sailing across the Aegean—smooth water, no engine noise—to a snorkeling stop in an unspoiled cove off Rhenia island. After that swim, the boat anchors in a second cove with crystal-clear water, and the chef begins cooking the full meal right in front of you on board. Eight flavors rotate through the menu, always built around fresh seafood and Mediterranean olive oil, and the open bar runs continuously: beer, white wine, sodas, bottled water, and the welcome Prosecco at the start.

The timing is built around the sunset. After the meal and a final swim, the catamaran sails back to Mykonos as the light drops over the water. If the wind picks up, the crew pivots to an alternative route along the south coast of Mykonos, visiting some of the island's famous beaches and a quiet cove away from the crowds—same meal, same snorkeling, different anchors. Snorkeling gear is provided; the crew speaks English throughout.

Is this one for you?Book this cruise if you want the meal and the sailing to happen together on the water—the chef cooks while you swim, so the five hours hold the whole experience in one arc instead of splitting dinner and the boat into separate events. The open bar and Prosecco mean no separate drink charges pile up during the sail.

Top questions

What happens if the weather is too rough to sail to Delos and Rinia?

The catamaran follows an alternative itinerary along the south coast of Mykonos, visiting the island's well-known beaches and a secluded cove instead. The meal, snorkeling stops, and five-hour duration stay the same; only the route changes.

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

Snorkeling gear is provided on board at no extra cost. You just need to bring a swimsuit and towel from your hotel.

What exactly is served for dinner, and can you accommodate dietary restrictions?

The chef prepares an eight-flavor Mediterranean dinner on board featuring fresh seafood, olive oil, and seasonal ingredients. Contact the operator before booking if you have specific dietary needs so they can plan accordingly.

Does the price include drinks, or do I pay separately for the open bar?

The open bar is fully included: unlimited beer, white wine, sodas, and bottled water, plus a welcome glass of Prosecco when you board. No additional charges for drinks.

How long is the sailing portion, and how much time do we spend swimming?

The cruise runs five hours total. You'll sail for roughly an hour to the first snorkeling stop, then anchor for swimming and the meal at the second cove, with another hour of sailing back to Mykonos as the sun sets.

Do I need to arrange my own transport to Ornos Bay, or is hotel pickup included?

Hotel pickup is not included. You'll need to arrange your own transfer to Ornos Bay, where the crew will meet you at the dock. A taxi or rental car from central Mykonos takes about 10 minutes.
