PENNY LANE | Bareboat Catamaran

The best way to begin a Cycladic week is with the city fading behind you, and that is exactly what happens as you depart Athens aboard the Fountaine Pajot Aura 51 bareboat catamaran PENNY LANE. Set your course for a curated Cyclades catamaran itinerary shaped around iconic landscapes and crystal blue horizons, where each crossing feels like a smooth transition into a calmer kind of time. Glide past lively ports, ancient silhouettes, and tucked-away turquoise inlets, and let the scenery change your mood as naturally as the breeze shifts.

By midday, the Cyclades invite you to slow down properly, drop anchor in swim-ready bays, and start the day again in the water. Come ashore for freshly caught seafood at seaside tavernas, then return onboard as the light turns soft and the coastline takes on that warm evening glow. Nights on PENNY LANE feel easy and restorative, with the comfort of your floating retreat waiting after every adventure, and tomorrow’s island hop always within reach.

About the Yacht
Wake up to wide-open sea views and set your rhythm to island time aboard the Fountaine Pajot Aura 51 PENNY LANE, where each Cyclades day feels easy, spacious, and full of possibility. As one of FYLY’s Deluxe Fleet yachts, she is designed for an elevated skippered charter experience, fully equipped with exclusive amenities that make life onboard feel more effortless from the moment you step aboard. She is also part of the GreenWave Fleet, fitted with solar panels, a water maker, and eco-friendly amenities to support energy efficiency while you cruise. Her generous decks are made for sun chasing, sea gazing, and long, comfortable stretches of lounging between anchorages, with plenty of room for everyone to spread out without ever feeling crowded. Drop anchor in a turquoise lagoon for a refreshing swim, then cruise onward with the breeze on your face and the next island quietly calling. When you glide into a new port near sunset, PENNY LANE keeps the mood calm and unhurried, like you have all the time in the world.

Step inside and the atmosphere shifts into cool, bright comfort, with a glass-wrapped interior softened by natural light after a full day under the Greek sun. The saloon becomes your sea-view lounge, inviting you to settle in with panoramic island scenery while conversations and playlists drift through the space. In the well-equipped galley, preparing food together feels smooth and social, and then you can bring everything out to dine in the warm evening air as the sky deepens in color. GreenWave also supports local communities through curated gifts and donates a portion of every charter to ARCHELON (sea turtle protection), adding a meaningful layer to your week on the water. On PENNY LANE, even the simplest routines feel elevated, and you end the night already looking forward to tomorrow’s first glance at the sea.

Further Destination Insight
Sunrise out of Athens quickly turns into open water, and before you know it, the Cyclades Islands feel like your own curated playground of blue horizons and island silhouettes. This celebrated chain opens a route that moves effortlessly between peaceful fishing harbors, lively waterfront squares, and hidden coves where the water shifts from deep sapphire to clear turquoise. The Meltemi brings an invigorating edge that experienced sailors appreciate, while well-equipped ports and calm, sheltered bays keep the week feeling balanced, comfortable, and beautifully paced.

Every island adds a new flavor to the story, from the energy and style of Mykonos to the quieter, more poetic feel of Serifos and Sifnos, where food, architecture, and landscape all change the mood. Drop anchor beneath Santorini’s towering caldera and let the view do the talking, or continue to Paros for sandy beaches and relaxed seaside cafés that make afternoons disappear. Cruising the Cyclades by catamaran creates a natural rhythm, with adventurous days followed by quiet nights under a wide Mediterranean sky that always feels close enough to touch.

Water Toys
Kayaks, paddleboards, and fishing equipment are all available to hire for your charter. For more information, please fill in the form below or email us at [email protected]

Skipper
If you wish to charter Greece without a skipper, you must have relevant experience and a Skipper's license. If you include a skipper in your bareboat charter, they will occupy one of the guest cabins, and it is expected that you pay for their meals during the week. Please read our Bareboat FAQs for more information.
