Quiet Mykonos shoreline and clear Aegean water

A northern coastal swim chapter on scenic boat days.

Agios Stefanos

Agios Stefanos appears on scenic coastal cruise itineraries as a swim stop — part of a boat day that also takes in harbour and Little Venice views from the water, rather than a southern beaches circuit.

Do not confuse Agios Stefanos coastal cruises with southern beaches products. Routes differ even when both involve swimming and lunch.

Swim stops that involve jumping from the boat require confidence in the water. Non-swimmers should choose differently.

As with all fixed sailings, check-in time and return must fit your ship. Weather can alter plans.

Independent visits to Agios Stefanos are a separate logistics problem from joining a published cruise itinerary — cruise passengers usually fare better with the organised product when this coastline is the goal.
