Milos Island Information

Depart by Luxury Yacht from this volcanic Cyclades gem, where dramatic coastlines meet crystal-clear Aegean waters.

About Milos

Milos rises from the Aegean Sea as a volcanic masterpiece, drawing travelers to its otherworldly landscapes and pristine waters. Navy Blue Sea Transfers depart from this stunning Greek Islands base, offering Private Yacht Charters to Santorini and beyond. The island's legendary Sarakiniko beach features lunar-white rock formations that glow against turquoise waters. Ancient Kleftiko sea caves once sheltered pirates and now welcome snorkelers exploring their crystal depths. From the colorful Syrmata boat houses of Klima to the panoramic views of Plaka village, Milos offers authentic Cyclades charm. Your Boat Transfer journey begins here, where volcanic beauty meets Mediterranean hospitality.

Things to Do in Milos

  • Explore the legendary Kleftiko sea caves by Boat Tour, swimming through arched rock formations where pirates once anchored their vessels in hidden turquoise lagoons.

  • Walk across the lunar landscape of Sarakiniko beach at sunrise. The white volcanic rocks create an otherworldly backdrop for photos before your Cyclades departure.

  • Discover authentic Greek Islands village life in Plaka and Klima. Colorful boat houses and traditional tavernas offer a memorable farewell to Milos before your Sea Transfer.

Santorini Island Information

Arrive by Luxury Yacht to this storied Cyclades island, where caldera cliffs frame whitewashed villages and deep Aegean blue

About Santorini

Navy Blue brings you to Santorini by luxury yacht, arriving at Athinios port with no crowded ferry queues. This volcanic Cyclades island rises from the Aegean Sea in layers of rust and chalk, crowned by the white clifftop villages of Oia and Fira. The caldera opens beneath blue-domed churches while the ancient Minoan city of Akrotiri rests preserved in ash below. Black sand stretches across Perissa and Kamari under warm afternoon light. Wine cellars carved into volcanic rock pour crisp Assyrtiko beside sea views. From your Boat Transfer departure in Milos to this Greek Islands arrival, every mile across open water builds anticipation.

Things to Do in Santorini

  • Explore the caldera rim on a boat tour and step onto Nea Kameni to feel volcanic warmth beneath your feet. Nearby hot springs offer a Cyclades experience found nowhere else.

  • Walk the lanes of Oia as golden light fills the caldera at sunset. Blue domes and Aegean horizons frame the ideal backdrop for photos after your luxury yacht arrival.

  • Taste Assyrtiko wines at volcanic hillside vineyards overlooking the sea. Pair each glass with fresh seafood at a traditional Greek Islands taverna carved into the caldera cliff.

We were honestly dreading another travel day, but this felt like part of the holiday. Alex got everyone settled, we stretched out on deck, and then suddenly the Santorini cliffs were right in front of us.

We chose the multi island option because we had two children with us. They swam at Poliegos, we ate properly at Folegandros, and by Sikinos the kids had picked their favorite island in Greece.

My husband booked this as a honeymoon surprise and added champagne without telling me. Eirini had it chilled and waiting on the bow as Santorini came into view.

The afternoon run from Santorini back to Milos was the calmest few hours of our week. Flat sea, the whole deck to ourselves, and nothing at all to do.

We chose the Multi-Island option and had such a good time. Poliegos, Folegandros and Sikinos all felt completely different, the fresh lunch was amazing, the open bar stayed busy, and Tressia somehow kept up with our group energy. Thank youuu!

Four of us went over to Santorini for the weekend. We put some music on, the sea was calm, and seeing Vlychada from the water was such a nice way to arrive!

We did the Multi-Island trip and it became one of our favorite days. A swim at Poliegos, lunch near Folegandros, then Sikinos in that late-afternoon light. Haris kept everything relaxed.

I mainly booked it for the photos, and the approach to Santorini was worth it. Domenikos slowed down near the cliffs so I could get the shot without anyone rushing me.

Third time with Navy Blue now and the Santorini run held up against all of them. Niki had everything ready before we boarded and we were back on Milos by early afternoon.

My parents came on the full-day trip and were a little nervous beforehand. They ended up swimming twice, sitting in the shade with a glass of wine, and talking with Anastasia for the rest of the holiday.
