Mykonos Traditional Caique Daily Cruise

Experience the authentic charm of Mykonos from the sea aboard a beautifully maintained traditional wooden caique. This private cruise invites you to discover the soul of the island—far beyond the crowds—offering full-day sailing adventure tailored to your preferences and weather conditions. With a local crew deeply rooted in the island’s seafaring traditions, guests are treated to genuine Greek hospitality, safe navigation, and unforgettable scenery.

One of the most popular itineraries explores the famous south coast of Mykonos, departing from Ornos and sailing past the island’s iconic beaches, including Psarou, Paranga, Paradise, Super Paradise, Agrari, Elia, Kalafati, and the secluded Frangia. These sandy shores, each with their own character and charm, are perfect for sunbathing, swimming, and soaking in the Aegean sun. Weather permitting, the cruise continues to Tragonisi, a wild, uninhabited islet with dramatic sea caves and turquoise waters—ideal for snorkeling and taking in the untouched natural beauty. On the return to Ornos, the crew can stop at a beach of your choice for one last refreshing swim or a seaside coffee.

Alternatively, you can choose to sail to the historical island of Delos, the mythological birthplace of Apollo and Artemis and home to Greece’s largest open-air archaeological site. Guests may disembark to explore the ancient ruins at their own pace, after which the boat sets course for the peaceful shores of Rhenia, a remote paradise known for its crystal-clear waters and tranquil beaches. Here, you’ll enjoy swimming, snorkeling, and a relaxed onboard lunch featuring local flavors and a glass of wine, surrounded by the quiet elegance of the Cyclades.

Throughout your cruise, you’ll be served a light meal prepared with traditional Greek ingredients, along with refreshments, local wine, fruit, and snacks. Snorkeling gear is available for those who wish to explore beneath the surface, and comfort and safety are ensured through the crew’s attention to detail and daily boat maintenance. Whether you’re seeking a cultural journey, a relaxing beach escape, or a scenic sailing experience with a local touch, this traditional caique cruise offers an unforgettable way to connect with the true spirit of Mykonos.
