You push off from Mykonos new port as the town’s white houses slide astern and the Aegean opens up—a steady breeze, a faint motor hum and the bright cut of Greek sunlight on water. The route skirts Little Venice and the ribbon of Chora before swinging west past Agios Ioannis and the celebrity streak of Psarou. The boat anchors at Paraga for a sharp, salt-snap swim, then moves on to Super Paradise for a longer soak and a BBQ lunch on board.

You push off from Mykonos new port as the town’s white houses slide astern and the Aegean opens up—a steady breeze, a faint motor hum and the bright cut of Greek sunlight on water. The route skirts Little Venice and the ribbon of Chora before swinging west past Agios Ioannis and the celebrity streak of Psarou. The boat anchors at Paraga for a sharp, salt-snap swim, then moves on to Super Paradise for a longer soak and a BBQ lunch on board.
Geology here is blunt limestone and wind-polished rock; cliffs give way to pebbled coves and broad sandy spits where waves carve shallow shelves. Culturally, these south-facing beaches have evolved from fishing coves into lively beach clubs—places like Scorpios and the bars at Paradise evolved in the 1990s into international summer destinations. From the boat you see the island’s compact history: Venetian-era windmills above town, Orthodox chapels clinging to promontories, and the blue domes that punctuate the coastline.
Practically, expect a 6-hour trip leaving from the new port opposite Olia Hotel; itinerary includes photo passes past Ornos and Platys Gialos, 30 minutes at Paraga and about 2 hours at Super Paradise. You can dive off the stern or take the tender ashore. Bring reef-safe sunscreen, a light wind layer, and a waterproof phone case. If you have heart problems or severe motion sensitivity, choose a calmer alternative. Midday trips are busiest—book early for a quieter morning run or arrive with a sunhat ready for full-afternoon light.
