Why travel by ferry from Athens to Mykonos?

Whether you're travelling alone, as a couple or with the family, a Athens to Mykonos ferry can be a convenient and enjoyable option for getting to Mykonos. Here are 3 reasons why we think a ferry from Athens to Mykonos is an ideal way to travel.

Because it's the ideal way to travel with your family!
Travelling by ferry is simply the ideal way to travel between Athens and Mykonos when you are with your family and especially with children. Everything is easier. As soon as you leave Athens, imagine your children exploring the ship, spending long periods playing in the children's play areas or in the video games and arcades (for teenagers), watching the latest films in the cinema, sharing a family meal in the restaurant, or marvelling at a magic show or other countless activities. This boat trip between Athens and Mykonos will remain an unforgettable moment for your children.
Resting in a cabin
Although it is not compulsory to make the crossing from Athens to Mykonos by booking a cabin, you are depriving yourself of a comfort that the ferry is the only mode of transport to offer. Equipped with berths, private bathrooms and sometimes even portholes or balconies, the cabins are not unlike real hotel rooms. While their use is most obvious on an overnight crossing, it is perfectly possible to book one during the day.
No need to worry about travelling with your bike
Travelling with your bike on a train, plane or bus is often a nightmare because it is so cumbersome to carry. However, on a ferry, you don't have this problem: your bike is loaded directly into the ship's huge garage. You leave it there for the duration of the Athens-Mykonos crossing in complete safety and without fear of it being damaged. You will find it when you disembark on your arrival in Mykonos.
