Kos is much more than beautiful beaches, fascinating history and lively summer evenings. It is also the perfect starting point for exploring some of the most captivating islands of the Dodecanese—especially when the journey takes place aboard your own private luxury yacht.
A private day cruise from Kos aboard the elegant Ferretti 57 transforms an ordinary day of your holiday into a complete Aegean experience. It brings together comfort, privacy, beautiful destinations and the freedom to enjoy the sea according to your own rhythm.
Designed to welcome groups of up to 22 guests, the Ferretti 57 is an exceptional choice for families, groups of friends and special celebrations looking to discover the islands surrounding Kos in style.
Kos: The Perfect Gateway to the Dodecanese
Kos occupies a privileged position in the Dodecanese, surrounded by smaller islands, peaceful bays and impressive volcanic landscapes.
Within a single private cruise, guests can leave the busy beaches behind and reach places where the water is clearer, the surroundings feel more authentic and the pace of life becomes wonderfully slow.
Depending on the duration of the cruise, your preferences and the prevailing weather conditions, the itinerary can include destinations such as Pserimos, Plati, Kalymnos, Nisyros and Gyali.
Each route reveals a different side of the Dodecanese—from traditional island villages and secluded swimming spots to dramatic rocky coastlines and extraordinary volcanic scenery.
Meet the Ferretti 57
Ferretti is internationally recognised for combining Italian design with comfort, performance and timeless elegance.
The Ferretti 57 offers spacious outdoor areas for sunbathing, socialising and admiring the uninterrupted views of the Aegean Sea. Its flybridge creates an elevated private lounge above the water, while shaded seating and dining areas provide comfortable spaces for guests to gather throughout the day.
Inside, the yacht offers an elegant and welcoming environment where guests can take a break from the sun and enjoy the refined atmosphere of a true luxury motor yacht.
With a capacity of up to 22 guests, it is particularly well suited to larger families and groups who want to remain together on one yacht without compromising comfort or style.
It is also the only luxury yacht in Kos dedicated specifically to daily private cruises and yacht events for groups of this size.
Discover Pserimos and Plati
One of the most popular cruising routes from Kos takes guests towards the small islands of Pserimos and Plati.
Pserimos offers a peaceful contrast to the energy of Kos. Its quiet bays, traditional character and inviting waters make it an ideal destination for swimming, relaxing and enjoying the simplicity of Greek island life.
Nearby Plati is a tiny, largely untouched island surrounded by beautifully clear water. Dropping anchor here creates the perfect opportunity to swim away from the crowds, enjoy the sea and relax on the yacht’s spacious deck.
Together, Pserimos and Plati create an effortless day-cruise itinerary combining exploration, swimming and plenty of time to unwind.
Experience the Authentic Character of Kalymnos
Known for its dramatic mountain scenery, seafaring tradition and historic connection to sponge diving, Kalymnos offers a completely different island experience.
Approaching its coastline from the sea reveals imposing rock formations, sheltered bays and traditional settlements built between the mountains and the water.
A cruise towards Kalymnos can include carefully selected swimming stops, time to appreciate the island’s distinctive landscape and, depending on the itinerary, an opportunity to visit a seaside village for lunch.
It is an excellent choice for guests who want to combine luxury cruising with the authentic culture of the Dodecanese.
Sail Towards Volcanic Nisyros and Gyali
For those seeking a longer and more adventurous day at sea, a cruise towards Nisyros and Gyali offers some of the most memorable scenery in the region.
Nisyros is one of Greece’s most fascinating volcanic islands. Its rugged coastline, traditional whitewashed villages and volcanic landscape create a destination unlike any other in the Dodecanese.
Nearby Gyali is instantly recognisable for its bright white terrain and striking contrast with the deep blue sea. The waters surrounding the island offer a spectacular setting for swimming and photography.
A cruise towards these islands is ideal for guests who want to experience the extraordinary natural beauty of the southeastern Aegean while enjoying the comfort and privacy of their own yacht.
A Private Cruise Designed Around You
The real luxury of a private yacht charter is not simply the yacht—it is the freedom to shape the day around your group.
You can spend more time swimming in a beautiful bay, relax on deck beneath the Mediterranean sun, enjoy lunch with the sea as your backdrop or cruise between several different islands.
The experience can be peaceful and relaxing, adventurous and energetic, or created around a special occasion.
The Ferretti 57 is ideal for:
- Family gatherings and multigenerational groups
- Birthdays and anniversary celebrations
- Groups of friends travelling together
- Bachelor and bachelorette experiences
- Corporate outings and private events
- Travellers seeking an exclusive alternative to crowded boat tours
Additional catering, drinks, entertainment and personalised services may also be arranged upon request, allowing the cruise to reflect the character of your group.
More Than a Boat Trip
A private yacht cruise from Kos is not simply a way to visit another island. It is an experience made up of countless smaller moments.
It is the feeling of leaving the harbour as the coastline slowly disappears behind you. It is diving into brilliantly clear water from the yacht, sharing lunch with friends beneath the Greek sun and discovering islands that feel completely removed from the busy resorts.
Most importantly, it is the freedom to experience the Dodecanese privately, comfortably and at your own pace.
Your Private Dodecanese Adventure Begins in Kos
From the tranquil bays of Pserimos and Plati to the authentic character of Kalymnos and the volcanic landscapes of Nisyros and Gyali, the islands around Kos offer endless possibilities for exploration.
The Ferretti 57 provides the space, elegance and versatility needed to turn that exploration into an exceptional day at sea for up to 22 guests.
Gather your family or friends, choose the kind of experience you want and allow the Dodecanese to reveal itself from its most beautiful perspective—the sea.
