Private 5-Hour Cruise on Brand-New 2023 Motor Yacht in Mykonos (Voreus)

A private yacht lets Mykonos feel personal. This is a 5-hour cruise on a brand-new 2023 motor yacht, with beach-club watching from your own deck. I love how you get the Aegean views without the hassle of big-group schedules.

Two things I really like: the boat itself feels built for comfort, and the crew support is personal. In one note shared by the team’s guests, Stelio is called out as super nice and polite, with practical local guidance that helps you time swims and photo stops.

One consideration: the cruise depends on good weather, and there’s an added fuel surcharge depending on where you’re sailing (EUR 200 for the Mykonos Southern Coast or EUR 300 for Delos/Rhenia).

Key things to know before you go

• Private charter feel for up to 4 people: more relaxed pacing and less crowd noise as you hop between bays.
• Brand-new 2023 yacht comfort: indoor bathroom with shower, deck shower, and WiFi help the trip feel civilized.
• Beach-club highlights, plus calmer contrast: you’ll pass the famous party shoreline and end in quieter Elia.
• Snorkeling gear and SUP included when conditions allow: you’re not limited to just looking from the rail.
• Tender-boat transfer: you’ll move in and out via a tender, so bring shoes you’re okay using on deck.
• Food and drinks are built-in, not a full meal: savoury and fruit platters plus wine/beer take care of the “snack” part.

A brand-new 2023 motor yacht on the Mykonos route

This is a private cruise experience priced per group (up to 4), which is the key value angle. Instead of paying for a seat in a crowded boat, you’re buying a calmer rhythm: you can slow down for photos at Psarou and Paraga, then actually enjoy the water time at the stops later on.

The yacht is described as a new 2023 motor yacht, and that matters. You’re not guessing whether the boat is tired or under-equipped; you’re stepping onto something designed for comfort, with an indoor bathroom/shower plus a deck shower for rinsing off salt.

Two other comfort touches you should care about: WiFi and a proper indoor area. On a hot Mykonos day, having the option to cool down and check your map or message home is surprisingly useful, especially between swim stops.

Price and what makes it feel like a good deal (for small groups)

At $1,020.20 per group for up to four people, the headline price looks steep at first glance—until you compare it to what a private boat often costs on Mykonos. The structure here helps: you’re covering a full 5-hour cruise and a bunch of extras that many “look-only” cruises leave out.

What’s included that usually changes the math:

• Hotel/villa/port pickup and return (within Mykonos)
• Savoury platters and fruit platters (not a full meal)
• Wine and beer (with a specific limit: 1 bottle of wine per 4 people, or 3 bottles of beer)
• Soft drinks and bottled water
• Swim towels, plus snorkeling masks and snorkels
• SUP (if weather permits)

What isn’t included:

• A fuel surcharge: EUR 200 for Mykonos Southern Coast (default) or EUR 300 for Delos/Rhenia, listed per booking

If you’re traveling as a couple, this can be a smart “one splurge” choice. If you’ve got four people, it becomes even more attractive because the private feel stays the same while the per-person cost drops.

Pickup, meeting point, and the tender-boat reality

You meet at Agia Anna on the beach, at Paraga Studios, Agia Anna, Paraga, Mikonos 846 00. The tour ends back at the same meeting point, so you’re not left figuring out a new location after you get off the boat.

Pickup is offered from hotels, the airport, or either port in Mykonos (New Port or Old Port). That matters on islands where taxis can be slow and parking is a headache, and it keeps your day from turning into transport logistics.

One operational detail you should plan around: embarkation and disembarkation are done via a tender boat. Translation: you’ll transfer between shore and the motor yacht using a smaller boat, so bring slip-safe sandals or shoes and take your time. It’s normal on island charters, but it’s worth knowing up front.

Your 5-hour itinerary: beaches with different moods

This cruise is built like a “party-to-relief” loop. You start in the most glamorous, club-heavy areas, then you move through iconic bays, and you finish where people go to calm down.

The pacing is intentionally light at the early stops—think short viewing windows, followed by longer water time later. That keeps the trip from feeling like you’re constantly switching gears, and it gives you a better chance to actually enjoy the sea.

Stop 1: Psarou Beach for the mega-yacht and club views

Psarou is a Mykonos name people recognize fast. You’ll cruise past one of Greece’s most cosmopolitan beaches, with impressive mega-yachts anchored nearby and glamorous beach clubs shaping the bay.

The stop window is about 20 minutes. That’s long enough for a couple of photos and a quick look around from the water, but it’s not designed for a full swim session.

Practical tip: if you care about photos, this is where I’d spend your time on the best side of the boat. Early in the day, the light often helps your shots, and you’ll already be in “view mode” before the water gear comes out.

Stop 2: Paraga Beach and the Scorpios/SantAnna framing

Paraga keeps the stylish feel going, but with a slightly more bohemian chic shoreline. As you glide by, you’ll see familiar club brands referenced in the route, including Scorpios and SantAnna, plus the rugged Mykonian coastline that makes this part of the island look dramatic.

This stop is also around 20 minutes. Again, it’s more about passing and admiring than spending your whole time off the deck.

What I like about Paraga on this route: it’s a good “in-between” moment. You’re not jumping straight from one party shoreline to another; you get a change of scenery, which keeps your eyes fresh before the louder beach names later.

Stop 3: Paradise Beach for iconic energy and easy photos

Paradise Beach is where Mykonos gets louder, faster, and more famous for parties. This stop is about 30 minutes, and the vibe is simple: watch the scene from your private deck and grab photos while you can.

The best part here is that you’re not stuck in the crowd. From a boat, you get the visual energy of Paradise without dealing with the packed sand or the scramble of getting back to a meeting point.

A small note for your expectations: this is still a sightseeing-and-snack day, not a full beach day. If you’re hoping to spend hours on sand, you’ll enjoy it more by treating this stop as your “Mykonos moment” and saving your deep relaxation for Elia.

Stop 4: Super Paradise Beach with swim time, snorkeling gear, and SUP

Super Paradise is where the route starts leaning into water time. You’ll get about 45 minutes here, with the option to swim and use provided snorkeling equipment (masks and snorkels). You can also use a SUP if the weather allows it.

This is one of the highest-value segments, because it’s the first real chance to turn the cruise into an active sea experience. If you don’t want to snorkel, just having masks on hand still changes the day—you can hop in for a quick look and get back up to dry off.

My practical advice: treat this as your “gear stop.” Put on sunscreen, double-check your fit for the snorkel mask, and if you plan to SUP, be ready to go when the crew says conditions are good. The sea can shift quickly with wind.

Stop 5: Agrari Beach for a quieter contrast

Agrari is a contrast stop. Instead of the loud party bays, you’ll cruise close to the shoreline of a more serene sandy beach and soak up a calmer pace.

The stop here is about 20 minutes. It’s shorter, but it works because by this point your day has a rhythm: you’ve had clubs, icon photos, and real water time.

I like ending on a softer note before the final destination. It keeps the trip from feeling like one long highlight reel with no emotional reset.

Stop 6: Mykonos Elia Beach for the relax-and-snack finish

Elia is the payoff. You’ll head to the expansive, pristine Elia Beach and spend about 2 hours there to swim and relax.

This is also where the crew serves a curated platter of Mediterranean savoury snacks and fresh fruits, plus chilled Greek wine or beer. Again, it’s not described as a full meal, but it’s more than just chips and a drink—it’s a real snack-and-lunch replacement for a beach afternoon.

Plan for this to be your slowest part of the day. Put your phone away, rotate sunscreen as needed, and use the time to enjoy the sea without rushing back to the boat every hour.

The included food and drinks: enough to stay happy, not a full meal

The cruise includes savoury and fruit platters, plus alcoholic beverages with a defined limit. You’ll get either wine or beer service based on your group preference.

Since this isn’t set up like a full lunch, think of it as a beach-day fueling system. If you’re a big eater, you might still want a light snack before pickup, especially if you’re starting the day hungry.

The upside: food is handled for you on board, and you don’t have to hunt down a café mid-trip. That’s often where time disappears on a Mykonos day.

What comfort looks like on this yacht

A private charter stands or falls on comfort details, and this one lists a few that matter in practice.

• Deck shower and indoor bathroom with shower
• Swim towels
• Indoor space plus WiFi
• Snorkeling masks and snorkels
• SUP when conditions permit

That combination means you can go from sun to rinse to relax without turning the trip into a “gear and towel scramble.” It also helps if anyone in your group gets a little tired from the heat.

Weather, timing, and why you should plan your day around it

This experience requires good weather. That’s not just legal language—it affects whether you get the water time you’re expecting, including SUP availability.

If you’re flexible, you’ll feel less stressed if conditions change. And if you want the best chance of getting your preferred day, it helps that this tour is typically booked about 20 days in advance.

Who this cruise suits best

This charter is ideal if you want the Mykonos shoreline experience without the crowd chaos. It’s especially good for:

• Couples or small groups up to four who want privacy
• People who care about comfort and clean onboard facilities
• Anyone who wants both beach-club views and real time in the water
• Travelers who like snorkeling and might use a SUP if weather cooperates

If your ideal day is all-day beach lounging with zero boat time, you may find the short early stops too quick. But if you want variety packed into 5 hours, this route hits a nice balance.

Should you book this private Mykonos yacht cruise?

I’d book it if you’re traveling with a small group and you want a comfortable, private way to see Mykonos beaches from the water. The value feels strongest when you’ll actually use what’s included—snorkeling gear, swim time, snacks, and the long Elia finish.

Skip it (or think twice) if you hate the idea of tender-boat transfers or if you’re only willing to travel when the weather is guaranteed perfect. Also consider the fuel surcharge, since that’s part of the real price picture.

If you’re aiming for a day that blends iconic Mykonos views with genuine downtime, this is the kind of charter that makes your itinerary feel like a vacation, not a checklist.
