About this experience

Our cruise boat leaves Mykonos’ old port and arrives approx. 45min later at Rhenia island. We anchor by a deserted beach where you’ll have time to take a swim in the crystal-clear waters, sunbathe on the fine sandy beach or stroll around the place. Sandy coves, clear crystal waters, and uncrowded beaches are a Rhenia island specialty.Lunch will wait for you afterward on board with homemade Greek flavor treats! The menu includes Barbeque Souvlaki (chicken/pork), Greek salad, tzatziki, rice, bread, and seasonal fruit. At around 14:30 we sail to Delos island in order to admire the archeological site (the entrance fee is paid extra). If you don’t want to see Delos your captain will also give you the opportunity to visit another beach near Delos and continue swimming while the rest of the group explores Apollo’s birthplace.
