The journey

A private sailing journey through lesser-seen Cycladic shores, quiet coves and island tables chosen beyond the familiar route.

The itinerary is intentionally fluid. Your captain follows wind and light while ELEGANS connects the moments ashore into one graceful composition.

The itinerary

Day by day,
beautifully considered.

This is the journey's natural rhythm. Every stage can be refined around your dates, interests and preferred pace.

Day 1

Athens to the Aegean

Private airport or hotel transfer to the marina, a relaxed embarkation and the first short sail towards an unhurried anchorage.

Days 2–3

The quieter Cyclades

Follow the conditions towards small harbours, transparent coves and family tables your captain and concierge know personally.

Day 4

An island in depth

Step ashore with a private specialist for archaeology, craft or food, returning to the yacht as the day visitors leave.

Days 5–6

Sail, swim, change course

Keep these days fluid for the best wind, the quietest bays and the island that feels right in the moment.

Day 7

A final Cycladic evening

Anchor for a farewell swim and a dinner aboard or at a carefully chosen shore table.

Day 8

Disembarkation

Return to the marina for private onward arrangements or continue into Athens or the Peloponnese.
