A 60 to 70m motor yacht the Cyclades in the 2026 summer window (June through September) runs $720,000 to $1,180,000 per week plus 28 to 32 percent APA, takes 12 to 14 guests across 7 to 9 cabins, and carries 18 to 24 crew. The bracket's structural Cycladic reality is that there is no standing 60m-plus alongside on the entire archipelago. Mykonos, Santorini, Paros, Antiparos, Naxos, Ios, and Milos all run at-anchor by default at this LOA on the outer-roads structure with the daily tender on the central island shore. The meltemi summer northerly window between roughly mid-July and mid-August at force 5 to 7 on the central Cycladic Mykonos-Naxos-Paros triangle drives the at-anchor footprint onto the eastern leeward face of each island on the structurally tight peak-week structure, and the captain's anchor judgement is the structural fit at the bracket. The Cycladic call routes through Mykonos JMK and Santorini JTR for the Cat A helipad guest-transfer, and through Athens ATH for the structural embarkation via Flisvos.
Why the Cyclades reads structurally at-anchor at this LOA
The Mykonos Old Port and Tourlos outer-roads. Mykonos at 37 degrees 27 minutes north handles the bracket-fit call on the Old Port outer-roads and the Tourlos new commercial port outer-roads with the daily tender on the central Mykonos Chora shore through the Old Port Gialos pontoon and the Tourlos pontoon. The meltemi northerly window on the central peak-July to mid-August calendar pulls the at-anchor footprint onto the eastern Mykonos leeward face at Kalafatis, Elia, and Ano Mera with the daily tender on the central Chora shore through the Old Port and the road transfer on the inner-island routing. The Mykonos call runs at-anchor by default on the central peak-week and the bracket's daily structure is the captain's anchor judgement on the rotating leeward face.
The Santorini Athinios and Ammoudi outer-roads. Santorini at 36 degrees 25 minutes north handles the bracket-fit call on the western caldera face on the Athinios outer-roads and the Ammoudi northern outer-roads. The Santorini caldera structurally short basin depth and the cliff-face shore-routing on the Fira switchback and the funicular constrain the daily structure on the at-anchor footprint and the limousine-tender shore.
The Paros Parikia and Naoussa outer-roads, and the Antiparos western face. Paros at 37 degrees 5 minutes north handles the bracket-fit call on the Parikia western face and the Naoussa northeastern face outer-roads with the daily tender on the central Parikia shore. The Antiparos western face outer-roads on the structurally tight summer Cycladic guest-routing handles the day-anchor on the central Antiparos Chora shore.
The Delos archaeological daylight on the prior Ephoria of Antiquities permit. Delos at 37 degrees 24 minutes north on the western face of the Mykonos channel handles the bracket-fit day-anchor on the prior Ephoria of Antiquities Delos archaeological site permit with the daylight-only daily structure on the structurally tight UNESCO heritage compliance framework.
Weekly rate map for the 2026 calendar
Rates below are firm summer pricing (June through September 2026) before APA at 28 to 32 percent (the Aegean fuel cost on the structurally wider Cycladic basin-fit cruise consumption, the meltemi-window leeward-face anchor reroute fuel premium, the Delos and Akrotiri archaeological-permit framework fee, and the bracket-fit Cat A helipad routing on the Mykonos JMK and Santorini JTR shuttle) and gratuity at 12 to 15 percent. The Greek charter VAT is 12 percent on the wider contract.
| LOA bracket | Motor yacht (low to high) | Sailing yacht (low to high) |
|---|---|---|
| 60 to 63m | $720K to $830K per week | $540K to $660K per week |
| 63 to 67m | $830K to $990K per week | $630K to $770K per week |
| 67 to 70m | $990K to $1,180K per week | $740K to $910K per week |
The peak window runs late July through the third week of August on the structural Cycladic Italian and German Ferragosto carryover. The June and September shoulder windows read 14 to 22 percent below the August central peak, and the September window holds the structural meltemi calm carryover on the wider Cycladic anchor structure with the early-October closure on the Mykonos seasonal shutdown. For wider bracket context see 60-70m Greece and the lower-LOA comparison at 50-60m Cyclades.
What the bracket includes in this bracket
Cabins. Seven to nine. Bridge-deck owner suite plus on-deck VIP plus five to seven main-deck and lower-deck guest doubles is the layout, calibrated to the 12 to 14 guest multi-couple multi-generational envelope.
Crew. Eighteen to twenty-four. The Cycladic call rewards a captain bench with prior Mykonos Old Port and Tourlos outer-roads daily-call judgement on the meltemi northerly rotation, prior Santorini caldera Athinios and Ammoudi outer-roads anchor judgement on the structurally short caldera basin, prior Paros Parikia and Naoussa outer-roads daily-call, prior Delos and Akrotiri archaeological-permit routing, and prior Mykonos JMK and Santorini JTR Cat A helipad coordination. The chief stew bench with prior Funky Kitchen Mykonos, Aera Santorini, Selene Santorini, Bill and Coo Mykonos, and Spondi Athens shore-coordination is the structural client-facing load-bearing question.
Tenders. Primary 12 to 14m fast tender plus a 10 to 11m beach tender plus a chase boat plus a dive tender plus a 9 to 10m limousine tender. The Mykonos Psarou and Super Spot beach shore, the Delos archaeological day-anchor on the prior permit, the Santorini Red Beach and Vlychada outer-anchor, the Paros Antiparos Faragas day-anchor, and the Ios Magganari day-anchor run tender-heavy on the daily structure.
At-anchor stabilizers and beach club. Load-bearing at the bracket. The meltemi summer northerly window on the central Cycladic leg through July to mid-August at force 5 to 7 pulls the at-anchor footprint onto the leeward face, and the bracket-fit at-anchor zero-speed product on the 2018-and-newer hulls with the gyro-and-fin combination hold the structural fit.
Helipad. Cat A load-bearing on the Mykonos JMK 8-minute shuttle, the Santorini JTR 10-minute shuttle, the Paros PAS 6-minute shuttle, and the wider Athens ATH 35-minute extension on the cross-Aegean guest-routing.
Trip shape that fits the bracket
The 7-night central Cycladic routing runs Mykonos JMK or Athens ATH embarkation, two nights at the Mykonos Tourlos outer-roads with the Psarou daylight and the Delos archaeological day-anchor on the prior permit, one night at the Paros Naoussa outer-roads, one night at the Antiparos western face outer-roads with the Faragas day-anchor, two nights at the Santorini Athinios outer-roads with the caldera Fira and Oia shore on the limousine tender, one night on the Mykonos return with the JMK disembark.
The 10-night Cycladic plus Dodecanese routing runs the prior 7-night Cycladic programme with the southeastward passage to the Dodecanese and Astypalea, two nights at the Astypalea Pera Gialos outer-roads, and one night at the Kos or Symi outer-roads on the return.
What the bracket does not do well in the Cyclades
The non-prior-permit Delos daylight or Akrotiri archaeological proposal. The Delos archaeological site permit framework through the Ephoria of Antiquities runs the prior permit structure on the structurally tight UNESCO heritage compliance, and the walk-up Delos daylight proposal without the prior permit runs as the structural blocker. We would pass on any non-prior-permit Delos daylight plan at contract and route the booking with the Ephoria permit confirmed in writing through the captain's office at contract.
The Mykonos Old Port inner-basin alongside proposal. The Mykonos Old Port inner-basin Gialos reads structurally short at the 60 to 70m LOA and the alongside proposal runs as the structural blocker on the basin depth and the daylight-only Old Port density. We would pass on any Mykonos Old Port inner-basin plan at contract and route the call on the Tourlos outer-roads with the daily tender to the Gialos pontoon.
The meltemi-blind peak-week central Mykonos plan. The peak-July to mid-August window at meltemi force 5 to 7 routes the at-anchor footprint onto the eastern Mykonos leeward face at Kalafatis, Elia, and Ano Mera, and the western Mykonos Old Port outer-roads plan without the meltemi rotation framework runs as the structural blocker on the central peak-week structure. We would pass on any meltemi-blind central Mykonos plan and route the call on the rotating leeward face with the captain's daily anchor judgement.
What we would book
For a family of 12, 7-night central Cycladic routing in early September (the post-meltemi calm-window edge) with Mykonos JMK embarkation, two nights at the Mykonos Tourlos outer-roads with the Psarou daylight and the Delos archaeological day-anchor on the prior Ephoria permit, one night at the Paros Naoussa outer-roads, one night at the Antiparos western face outer-roads with the Faragas day-anchor, two nights at the Santorini Athinios outer-roads with the caldera Fira and Oia shore on the limousine tender, one night on the Mykonos return: a 63 to 65m Greek-flagged motor yacht, 8 cabins, twin tenders plus chase plus dive plus limousine, Cat A helipad on the Mykonos JMK and Santorini JTR shuttle, captain bench on the Mykonos and Santorini outer-roads daily-call routine and Delos permit routine. Budget $880K per week, all-in roughly $1.18M including APA at 30 percent and Greek charter VAT at 12 percent. Lead time 9 to 15 months for the August Ferragosto wider-week, 6 to 12 months for the September shoulder edge.
