Crewed Catamaran MELITI

MELITI is a Lagoon 560 catamaran built in 2014, purpose-designed for the Greek islands with the space, stability, and comfort that define the breed. She accommodates 8 guests across four queen cabins, each offering private retreat after days spent exploring. The layout rewards relaxation: a luminous teak-appointed saloon serves as your floating drawing room, while the expansive flybridge and aft deck provide multiple settings for alfresco dining and morning coffee with uninterrupted views.

Captain Yiannis has navigated these waters since 2000, commanding both private and charter vessels across European cruising grounds. His knowledge of the Cyclades is encyclopaedic, and his commitment to seamless operations ensures your itinerary bends to your preferences, not the other way round. Chef George brings over two decades of experience from Athenian and island fine dining to your table, crafting menus that honour local produce and technique. Stewardess Yulia attends to every detail with understated professionalism, ensuring your stay feels effortless.

Water sports are comprehensively catered for. On board you'll find a tender, jet skis, kayaks, SUPs, fishing and snorkelling kit, plus tow toys for the energetic. Whether you anchor off Sifnos to explore its food scene, slip into crystalline coves for underwater discovery, or simply drift while the crew tends to dinner, MELITI adapts to your rhythm.

The Cyclades demand a certain approach to chartering: intimate anchorages over crowded marinas, sunrise swims in turquoise shallows, dinners served to your own sunset timeline. MELITI's catamaran hull and shallow draft unlock hidden coves inaccessible to larger monohulls, whilst her stability means minimal motion at anchor, even when the Aegean asserts itself. From Athens, the natural progression runs through Mykonos, Paros, and Antiparos, each island revealing different character: cosmopolitan nightlife, Cycladic whitewash and windmills, subterranean caverns, family-run tavernas where the catch arrives daily. Your crew will source provisions from local markets, adjust your routing based on wind and mood, and navigate the social geography that separates the obvious from the exceptional.
