Private Mykonos Cruise: Rhenia Swim & Little Venice Sunset

Swim in crystal water, then watch the sun set over Little Venice from the boat

A private boat cruise from Mykonos includes a swim and paddle-boarding stop at Rhenia with Greek wine and finger food, then anchors at Little Venice for sunset. You spend four to five hours on the water with a live English-speaking guide, watching the windmills and Chora shoreline while music plays and cocktails flow.

The experience

The boat leaves Mykonos and heads to Rhenia, where the water stays shallow and clear enough to swim, tan and paddle-board for as long as you want. Rose or white wine arrives with finger food, and the crew handles the setup so you just get in. One hour of travel time bookends the day, giving you room to move without rushing.

At Little Venice (the cluster of pastel buildings that spill down to the waterline) the boat holds position in the bay as the sun drops. The windmills and the whole Chora light up across the water. Smooth and dance music plays, a cocktail sits in your hand, and the moment stretches without a schedule pushing you forward. This is the part people come back for.

The crew speaks English and handles all the logistics: pickup is included, so you just show up. Bottled water and soda stay cold on board. Stand-up paddle boards are there if you want them, and the boat moves at a pace that lets you actually rest between stops instead of racing to the next one.

Is this one for you?This is a private boat, so you and your group have it to yourselves: no strangers, no set group size, and the pace stays whatever you want it to be. Choose it if you'd rather anchor in one spot and actually relax than move through five stops in a day, or if sunset matters more to you than ticking off landmarks.

Top questions

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 exactly happens during the Rhenia stop?

Rhenia is where you swim and paddle-board in crystal-clear water, then sit on deck with Greek wine and finger food while the crew keeps everything running. You set your own time in the water. Stay in for twenty minutes or an hour, whatever suits you.

Is the sunset viewing from the boat or on land?

You watch the sunset from the boat anchored in Little Venice bay, so you stay on deck with your drink while the light changes over the buildings and windmills. The boat does not dock. You stay on the water the whole time.

What's included to drink and eat?

Rose or white wine and beer come with the cruise, along with snacks and finger food at Rhenia. Bottled water and soda are available throughout the day, and all fees and taxes are built into the price.

How much of the day is actually travel time on the water?

One hour of the four to five hours is spent traveling between stops. The rest is split between the Rhenia swim stop and the Little Venice sunset, so you're not sitting idle.

Do I need experience to paddle-board, or is it optional?

Stand-up paddle boards are available on board and suitable for all fitness levels. You can use one or skip it and swim instead. The choice is yours once you're at Rhenia.
