SEAJETS describes northbound Santorini–Mykonos journeys as taking a few hours. Select a sailing without a ship change and use its exact duration and island stops. Check seasonal operation and add both local port transfers. |
Choosing your journey
Check the direct seasonal sailing first. The journey can stay on one ship even when it calls at other islands, and both ports need local transfers.

Search the route for your date
Seajets’ network connects Santorini and Mykonos through its Cyclades services. Use about 2–4 hours as an initial sailing allowance, then check the actual vessel and stops. Intermediate calls do not necessarily require a change of boat; read the booking rather than assuming a transfer.
Leave Santorini from Athinios
Get to Athinios ferry port, not the old harbour below Fira. Allow for the road down to the port, the wait and the operator’s boarding deadline. If taking a bus via Fira, include the connection instead of timing only the final ride.
Continue from Tourlos
Mykonos ferries normally arrive at Tourlos New Port. SeaBus, a suitable bus or a booked transfer can cover the town journey, depending on operating hours and your address. Leave your first Mykonos plans flexible for a delayed sailing. If the direct route does not operate on your date, reconsider the travel day before buying separate, tightly connected tickets through another island.
Plan the arrival
The Santorini guide and Mykonos guide explain the local journeys, places to stay and visits. Add the main travel ticket separately to your daily spending plan. The distance above is a straight-line comparison between the city centres; your train, road or flight route can be longer.
