Tips for the Piraeus–Mykonos Ferry
- Some operators allow seat upgrades at the port ticket desk if higher classes have not sold out – worth asking if you arrive early.
- Book your ferry tickets as early as possible for July and August – cabins and vehicle spaces on popular routes sell out weeks in advance.
- Board early to secure a good seat on open-plan ferries – the best spots near windows and on the outside deck fill quickly.
- Check the marine weather forecast for your crossing the evening before departure; the Hellenic National Meteorological Service (EMY) publishes forecasts for all sea areas.
- 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.
