Dreaming of a superyacht holiday? You dream of Greece.

More than 220 scattered islands, all with a different feel and vibe. Are you in the mood for a busy walk and a cosmopolitan lifestyle? Hop to Mykonos. Do you wish to lay back and enjoy the tranquility? Stop by Icaria or Amorgos.

Our Mystique Yachts experts have been meticulously partnering with owners and charterers over the years and have come across an extensive list of must visit places in Greece.

1. The Ionian Sea: for the peace-seekers

Corfu: visit the colorful buildings dated back to the Venetian period and walk around its historical center. Taste the traditional food and take a flavour of how the Italian cuisine has been married with the Greek ingredients.
Paxos-Antipaxos: explore the Caribbean turquoise colours of the sea minutes away from Corfu. Visit the blue caves, an absolute must-see.
Ithaca and Kefalonia: Ithaca is the homeland of Odysseus (Ulysses), the hero of the Homeric poem Odyssey. Apart from the mythology the island offers a tremendous natural beauty and spectacular emerald waters. If you are an admirer of the marine life, visit Kefalonia as you have high chances to see rare sea turtle species.
Zakynthos (or Zante): Zakynthos is an unspoiled natural habitat renowned for the wild landscape and the picturesque beaches. The Shipwreck Beach remains one of the most photographed locations in Greece

2. Athens and the Saronic islands: a piece of history and art

You can easily fly to Athens to embark on your trip. Before you do so, spend a couple of days at the capital’s historic center. Gaze at the Parthenon and have a stroll around the Athenian marbles. From there you can then visit Aegina and Hydra, go back to Venetian times and make certain you taste the famous pistachios of Aegina. Sail around Hydra and see the mansions, a true hub for artists who were looking for some inspiration and got fascinated by the mystical landscape.

3. Cyclades: the magic combination

Mykonos: everyone knows it! The island of the winds accommodates many celebrities during the summer months. If you are seeking a combination of a busy lifestyle and seclusion, then chartering a megayacht is a great way to go around Mykonos.
Santorini: the home of the magnificent sunset in Caldera. If you prefer not going on shore, watching the sunset from the superyacht will offer the most picturesque memories.
Naxos-Koufonisia: if you fancy a slow pace, visit Koufonisia and you will be amazed by the colors and the rock formations. Naxos is minutes away from Koufonisia and much busier. Take some time to visit the villages in the mainland and try meat delicacies and the local cheese.
Milos: The jewel coloured waters and the volcanic landscape creates the perfect environment for taking amazing pictures. The island is also known as the birthplace of goddess Aphrodite, according to one version of the myth. This island is the definition of beauty.

4. Dodecanese of the Aegean Sea

Kos is known for its sandy beaches and lush vegetation and also as the birthplace of Hippocrates, the father of Medicine. Go around the beautiful coastline and relax with the views.
Rhodes combines the medieval element of the Old Town with the cosmopolitan aspect of the bars and nightclubs. Stop by for some wine tasting accompanied by Greek delicacies.

5. Sporades: natural beauty and tranquil spots

Skiathos: This forested island offers many glorious secluded beaches, beautiful landscape and is the location where part of the “Mamma Mia” movie was shot. The night the town turns into a big nightclub with electrifying music and bright vibes
Alonissos: You want to unwind and switch off? Visit Alonissos and read a book while staring at the scattered islands and tasting genuine greek flavors

Step into the past, experience the Greek hospitality and get amazed by the natural beauty and the refreshing breeze. Greece has so much to offer and due to its landscape it is the island hopper’s paradise.
