8-Day Jewels of the Cyclades 2026-2027

The adventure begins. Join us on board as you get to know your home at sea, and fellow travellers, over a welcome drink. We’ll set sail for Poros, arriving just in time for dinner. Relax or enjoy an evening walk, before our overnight journey to Poliegos.

Wake up in uninhabited Poliegos. The hardest decision you’ll make today is whether to jump into the sea, or to enjoy breakfast on deck. We recommend you do both. In the afternoon we’ll sail to Folegandros to explore the town and Venetian castle, before tasting traditional Greek food in one of the local tavernas. Overnight in Folegandros.

Santorini calling. We’ll arrive early with plenty of time to explore the capital, Fira, as well as the smaller village of Oia with its blue-domed views over the caldera. This is the place to get those Instagram shots. Optional tour of the archaeological site, Akrotiri. As evening falls, enjoy the world-famous Santorini sunset with sundowners on deck. Overnight in Santorini (on anchor).

Today we’ll sail to Paros, with a quick stop in a beautiful bay on neighboring Antiparos. Yes, you’re welcome to dive in. In Paros, explore both the port city of Parikia, and Naoussa – a quaint, and incredibly photogenic village in the north. In the evening you will have time to enjoy your dinner in a tavern overlooking the sunset. Overnight in Paros.

Before waving ahoy to Mykonos, we’ll stop for a few hours at sacred Delos. The island is an archaeological site, and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Join us on a guided tour before we sail to the cosmopolitan island of Mykonos. Here, the night is yours. Join the jet-set and vibe at the hottest bars and restaurants. Overnight in Mykonos – in case you don’t want to leave the party early!

Wake up and refresh with a morning dip in the sea then all aboard for the trip to Syros, the capital of the Cyclades. Here you can relax, rest, and rejuvenate on the beach, or you can take part in our optional tour and explore the town and its unique architecture. Overnight in Syros.

We begin our journey back to Athens, with a last opportunity to jump into the inviting sea at Kolones Bay, Kythnos. Dry off as we sail towards Cape Sounion to view the Temple of Poseidon from the sundeck. On arrival back at Marina Zea, enjoy a Captain’s Farewell Dinner before bedding down for one more night on board.

Breakfast and disembarkation at 8.30-9am. But this is not goodbye. We’re sure your cabin mates have become friends you’ll stay in touch with. As for us – we hope this is only bye for now, and that we’ll see you on one of our cruises again soon.
