Mykonos Port: Gateway to the Aegean
The primary gateway to Mykonos, connecting you to the Cyclades Islands and beyond with bustling ferry and cruise services.
Mykonos Port, also known as the New Port of Tourlos, is the bustling maritime hub that welcomes travelers to the vibrant island of Mykonos. Located approximately 2 kilometers north of Mykonos Town (Chora), it has superseded the Old Port in Mykonos Town as the island's main point of arrival and departure. The port is a hive of activity, especially during peak season, with ferries and cruise ships arriving and departing daily, connecting Mykonos to various destinations in the Cyclades and mainland Greece. Since 2021, both conventional and high-speed ferries use the New Port. The port offers various facilities for travelers, including ticket offices, ATM machines, car rental services, and taxi ranks. You'll also find taverns, restaurants, and accommodations near the port. While waiting for your ferry, you can enjoy a coffee or a snack at one of the port's cafes. Keep in mind that the port can get extremely crowded during the high season, so it's advisable to arrive at least one hour before your ferry's departure. From the port, you can easily reach Mykonos Town via the Sea Bus, public bus, or taxi.
