The Cyclades are a ring of islands in the middle of the Aegean, each a short hop from the next. The water is the clearest in the Mediterranean and the tavernas still cook what the boats bring in. In July and August the meltemi blows, so we plan routes in its lee.
A week aboard
Day 1 to 2: board in Mykonos, then the quiet south coast of Paros. Day 3: Antiparos and its caves. Day 4 to 5: the coloured rocks and sea caves of Milos. Day 6: Folegandros. Day 7: arrive in Santorini for the caldera at sunset.
