The Charter Experience
A seven-day Cyclades charter aboard MARLA blends discovery with indulgence. Depart Athens and navigate sparkling Aegean waters to ancient sanctuaries, vibrant island towns, and secluded anchorages. Chef Georgios sources local flavours for refined meals served against legendary coastlines, while the deck crew orchestrate water sports, tender transfers, and seamless navigation. Your itinerary flexes to the season and your wishes. Year-round, MARLA also explores the Ionian Sea and Turkish coast, offering versatility rarely found in this yacht category.
Suggested Itinerary
A typical week might unfold as follows. Embark in Athens and cruise to Mykonos for evening aperitifs on the aft sky deck. Next, anchor near Paros for morning swimming and lunch prepared fresh by the galley team. Continue to lesser-known Cycladic islands, visiting whitewashed villages and ancient ruins. Allocate time for tender-based water sports, sunset cocktails at the Jacuzzi, and long alfresco dinners as the crew tend to every comfort. Return to Athens or extend into Turkish waters depending on season and preference.
