Transportation
You can reach the island of Mykonos by boat, every day of the week, from one of the two mainland ports. Scheduled sailings are at least twice a day (morning and evening). For high-speed ferries or boats leaving from the port of Piraeus, travel time is approximately six hours by slow boat; three and a half by high-speed ferry. From the port of Rafina, travel time is approximately five hours by slow boat and two and a half by high-speed ferry. Scheduled sailings can be cancelled due to high wind, so plan your holiday accordingly or go with the flow and spend an extra day at either end. In addition to the ferries, there are also smaller, faster catamarans, but those have fewer sailings and are cancelled more frequently due to wind. An extra day spent in Greece isn't so bad, especially if it is on Mykonos!
For air travel, Mykonos has a modern airport that receives direct flights from most of the European countries and flights from the Athens airport (a flight time of approximately 25 minutes). In peak season, the Mykonos airport receives 3 to 16 incoming flights per day.
Mykonos has a good bus system, taxi service or you can rent a car - motorbike for travel around the island or to and from your accommodation. Cars are prohibited from the narrow streets of Mykonos Town (Hora) so, if staying in town your feet are the best mode of transportation.
