Ferry from Mykonos (Tourlos) to Koufonissi

The Mykonos to Koufonisi ferry is one of the classic Cyclades crossings, taking you from one of Greece’s most famous islands to one of its most quietly rewarding. Koufonisia sits in the Small Cyclades, a scattering of low-lying islands south-east of Naxos that draw travellers looking for something a little more unhurried. The ferry runs from April through to October, so you have a good window to work with across the season.

During the summer peak, you can count on around 2 ferries per day. Shoulder months — April, May, and October — tend to offer closer to 1 departure daily, so it’s worth checking schedules carefully if you’re travelling outside of high summer and have connections to make.

Hiring a car

Is it worth hiring a car on Mykonos?

Worth it if you plan to reach beaches like Elia or Kalafatis and the far side of the island, since buses run less often outside town. New Port is about 3km from Chora, roughly a 13-minute drive, and Chora itself is pedestrian-only so you park on the edge and walk in. Quad bikes are a popular alternative.

Frequently Asked Questions

Tips for the Mykonos (Tourlos) to Koufonissi ferry

• Most scheduled ferries – including those to Piraeus, Rafina, Santorini and Naxos – dock at the New Port at Tourlos, roughly 3km north of town, not the Old Port in Mykonos Town itself; check your ticket before heading out.
• During July and August arrive at the New Port at least an hour before departure – ferries here fill quickly, queues for ticket collection build fast, and boarding gates close without much warning.
• A sea bus links the New Port at Tourlos with the Old Port near town in about eight minutes, running regularly through the day; it carries luggage, so it's a reliable option if a taxi isn't available.
• Taxis are scarce on Mykonos and demand regularly outstrips supply at the port, especially in high season, so budget extra time or use the public bus or sea bus into town instead of relying on finding one.
• Return tickets on the same operator are sometimes cheaper than two separate one-way fares – compare both options before confirming.
