The Folegandros to Mykonos ferry is one of those journeys that takes you from one of the Cyclades’ quieter hideaways to its most famous party island in a single sailing.

Tips for the Folegandros–Mykonos Ferry
- Pack a portable power bank – reliable mains charging is not guaranteed on every vessel, and a long crossing is a good time to drain your phone.
- If you are travelling as a family or small group, four-berth cabins often represent the best value; split between two or three people, the cost is frequently on a par with a budget hotel room.
- Most island ports sit within easy reach of the main village or town – count on a 5–10 minute walk with luggage, which is generally very manageable.
- In Mykonos, the iconic windmills overlooking Little Venice and the maze of whitewashed lanes in Chora are as recognisable as any image in the Greek islands. The island is equally famous for its beach clubs and vibrant nightlife, with Paradise Beach among the liveliest spots on the Aegean.
