The Mykonos to Paros ferry is one of the most useful short hops in the Cyclades, linking two of Greece’s most-visited islands across a stretch of Aegean that rarely takes more than a couple of hours to cross. Whether you’re leaving the glamour of Mykonos behind or heading there from Paros, this route runs daily throughout the season and gives you real flexibility when planning your island circuit.
At peak summer you can choose from up to 10 departures a day, so missing a boat is rarely a disaster. Shoulder season brings a more modest 6 departures daily, and in March and November services thin out considerably — worth bearing in mind if you’re travelling at the edges of the season.

Tips for the Mykonos–Paros Ferry
- Vehicle dimensions and weight affect your ferry fare; double-check the operator’s measurement categories if you are driving an unusually large or heavy vehicle.
- The sea temperature in the Aegean ranges from around 15°C in winter to 27–28°C in late summer; falling overboard in winter is a serious emergency.
- The Beaufort scale is used on all official Greek weather and maritime forecasts; it is worth familiarising yourself with what each force number means in practice.
- In Paros, the charming fishing village of Naoussa on the north coast is the best place to eat fresh seafood at family-run waterfront tavernas. The main town of Parikia has an impressive Byzantine cathedral built from the marble of ancient temples, and the island’s beaches – particularly Kolymbithres with its sculpted granite rocks – are among the most striking in the Cyclades.
