Your Ultimate Cycladic Island Hopping

You finally made your dream holidays in Mykonos happen! Soon, you will discover that there are plenty here to do; however, leveling-up your holiday experience by indulging in a cruise to visit the nearby Cycladic beauties is a must. Island hopping is a breeze from the private jetty of Saint John Hotel, at Agios Ioannis Bay, and sailing to some of the neighboring islands will definitely be a splendid experience.

There are many beautiful islands near Mykonos, so you can easily travel from one island to another. And even though they all belong to the same island complex, sharing many common traits, each and every one of them is unique – Let’s find out how!

Paros

Αmong the most famous Cycladic destinations, Paros island attracts thousands of visitors every year for its idyllic beaches and throbbing nightlife.

This gorgeous island’s architecture displays more of a Dodecanese style than Cycladic, flaunting its distinctive Venetian architecture, especially in Ermoupolis, the picturesque capital town of Syros.

The closest one to Mykonos, this elegant Cycladic island is mostly known for its religious character. The church of Panagia Megalochari is swarmed with thousands of people every year on the 15th of August, when Christian worshipers celebrate the Dormition of the Virgin Mary.

The largest of the Cycladic islands, Naxos, is a typical family-friendly destination. You will not miss a 6 meters tall and almost 4 meters wide marble gate "welcoming" you when your yacht approaches to the port. It is the famous Portara, the hallmark of Naxos, the only remnant piece of an ancient temple dedicated to Apollo.

As you get close to stunning Ios, you will instantly feel its cosmopolitan vibes, since this Cycladic island is a game-changer in the Mediterranean party scene and therefore, one of the most famous destinations among younger people!
