The Cyclades are the Platonic ideal of what Greece looks like to much of the world: whitewashed buildings tumbling down volcanic nobs into seas impossibly blue; air thick with thyme swirled in warm Aegean breezes, and the faint call of a bouzouki reverberating across an ancient quay of fishing boats and superyachts moored side by side. For many, private yacht island hopping through Mykonos, Santorini and Paros before Naxing off to the volcanic landscapes of Milos is THE postcard-perfect Mediterranean experience.
Covering the 25-to-50-meter range most popular for island hopping itineraries, Ocean Independence has built a strong reputation in the Cyclades with eight yachts on its books. Speak as good EnglishIs bad with local formality, reservation for thirst restaurant and bring communication to port authorities on crowded summer evenings — favour of course these guys really represent much better value when it comes down to total access. Northrop & Johnson also has a commanding presence in high demand boats between 40 and 55 metres during peak season, with strong results for Santorini and Mykonos premium installations.
Burgess adds its usual superyacht pedigree to the Cyclades market with mega-yachts of knock-out stature and specification for owners who like to run a boat that could anchor off Oia and make neighbouring charters look small. Worth Avenue Yachts and Bluewater both have clients in this sector, which encompasses the 20-to-35-metre range where access to shallow anchorages combined with the ability to get into smaller island ports is often the key to making a proper Cycladic itinerary.
But IYC has taken Cyclades island-hopping to another level. With such depth in their fleet – sailing yachts, motor yachts, catamarans & expedition vessels – this enables IYC to provide whatever type of vessel is best suited for a given client’s vision. Most importantly, however, IYC’s Greek specialists have extensive knowledge of every cove nowhere near any tourist map: the little-visited cave at Kleftiko before it gets overran with day trippers; an uninhabited beach on Antiparos reachable only by tender afresh at dawn; the unique sea formations off Milos available only to those mariners courageous enough to navigate their squalls. This unrivalled local knowledge, coupled with the largest charter fleet in the world and an unsurpassed dedication to exceptional service makes IYC everyone´s only logical choice for high-level Cyclades island hopping.
