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.

- Children under a certain age travel free on most Greek ferry lines; the exact age threshold varies by operator, so check the terms when booking.
- A 40-litre backpack is the ideal size for island-hopping: large enough for two weeks’ clothing, small enough to carry without difficulty.
- Once you arrive in Koufonisia, the turquoise waters and sandy coves of these Small Cyclades islands rank among the most scenic in all of Greece. The islands’ compact size makes them easy to explore on foot, and boat trips to the surrounding islets offer some exceptional swimming.
