Sailing Cruise to Rhenia Island & Delos Guided Tour
Hop on one of our elegant and spacious yachts (112’ Motor Sailor or 51’ Sailing yacht) and visit the archaeological site of Delos and secluded bay of Rhenia Island in just one day, while you enjoy an extensive Mediterranean buffet onboard accompanied by complimentary wine, beers and soft drinks. Take an opportunity to swim in Rhenia’s uninhabited secluded bays and snorkel in its crystal clear waters while you feel the Aegean breeze, and learn everything about Delos, the birthplace of Apollo and Artemis, during an in depth historical tour.
You will be picked up by shuttle bus and taken to the port of departure. The tour will set sail at 09:30 and after just an hour of sailing you will approach uninhabited Rhenia island and its turquoise waters. Here you will have a chance to sunbathe at the comfortable deck cushions or dip into the refreshing waters. After a swim break, you can enjoy a true Greek feast as the Mediterranean style buffet lunch will be waiting for you along with wine and soft drinks onboard.
After the delightful meal we set sail for our next stop, the archaeologicl island of Delos, where a professional English-speaking guide will take you on a 1 ½ hour guided tour onsite, and then leave some extra time (30 minutes) where you can freely explore the island, the museum and Mount Kynthos, admiring the ancient ruins (this will probably be your best chance to explore the island as nobody is allowed to stay overnight after the sunset).
Upon return to Mykonos, you will be greeted with a farewell drink toast, cherishing some amazing memories of the day, just before the shuttle bus takes you back to your hotel.
This cruise is organized (group) with minimum number of participants 10.
You are advised to carry cash for the admission to the Archaeological site of Delos. Appropriate dress code is required to enter (walk shorts, pants, t-shirts); no swimwear is allowed to the site.
Please remember to prepare a beach bag (with bathing suits, beach towels etc) as we will be making swimming stops along the way.
