Mykonos Greece Map: Two Ports, One Town, Seven Meeting Points
Mykonos is 85 square kilometres with two passenger ports, one pedestrian town and a bus network that covers the south well and the north not at all. Which port your ship uses decides where you stand on the morning of your tour, and it is not always decided in advance. The seven meeting points below are where the tours in Mykonos island actually start, and they are not all in the same place.
Where Mykonos sits in the Cyclades
Mykonos Town (Chora), Mykonos 846 00, Greece
The map loads only when you ask it to, so nothing is requested from Google before you press the button.
The island
Mykonos lies in the northern Cyclades, about 150 km south-east of Athens. Tinos is across the strait to the north-west, Naxos and Paros to the south, and Delos and Rhenia sit two nautical miles west.
The town
Chora, also called Mykonos Town, is on the west coast beside the Old Port. It is closed to traffic and crosses on foot in about twenty minutes.
The airport
Mykonos Airport (JMK) is about 4 km south of the Chora, inland from Ornos.
Two ports, 2.5 km apart
| New Port (Tourlos) | Old Port (Chora) | |
|---|---|---|
| Who uses it | Cruise ships and almost all ferries | The Delos boats, some cruise tenders, small local craft |
| Distance to Mykonos Town | About 2.5 km | You are already in it |
| Walk into town | Not advisable — no proper pavement | Not needed |
| Sea Bus | Cruise dock and Tourlos marina | Beside the Town Hall, and the KTEL stop |
| Taxi to town | About €10, five minutes | — |
| What leaves from here | Ferries to Piraeus, Rafina and the Cyclades | Every scheduled Delos sailing |
The important line in that table is the last one: every scheduled Delos sailing leaves from the Old Port, and most cruise ships berth at the New Port. If Delos is your plan, the crossing between the two is part of the plan.
The Sea Bus between them
Fare: €2 per person, one way
Crossing time: About twelve minutes
Frequency: Every thirty minutes, and every fifteen when a cruise ship is in
Season: 1 April to 31 October
New Port stops: The cruise dock, and the Tourlos marina
Old Port stops: Beside the Town Hall, where the Delos vessels dock, and the KTEL bus station
It is the reason the 2.5 km road with no pavement does not matter. Out of season it does not run, and a taxi is the fallback.
The airport, and how close it is to everything
Four kilometres from the Chora, about ten minutes by road, and closer to Ornos and Platis Gialos than to the town. Several of the boats leave from jetties on that same southern stretch, so a morning arrival and an afternoon sailing is a realistic combination if your bags are already at the hotel.
Chora on foot
The lanes were laid out to disorient raiders and they still disorient everybody. That is the charm and it is also why a walking tour is worth more here than in a gridded town. The fixed points are the harbour front, the Kastro quarter with Panagia Paraportiani, Little Venice on the Alefkandra waterfront, and the windmills on the ridge above them. Everything else you find twice by accident.

Nine rows, seven of them fixed points and two of them your own door. If you are short of time or arriving by ship, the tours in the last row are the ones that remove the problem entirely.
Not sure which port you will get?
Two of the shore excursions here publish a meeting point for each and confirm the right one about a week before you sail.
The bus network, in one table
| From | Goes to | Worth knowing |
|---|---|---|
| Fabrika station | Ornos, Platis Gialos, Paraga, Paradise, Agios Ioannis | The south-west beaches; frequent in summer |
| Old Port station | Ano Mera, Elia, Kalafatis, Kalo Livadi | The inland village and the south-east beaches |
| Both | The airport and the New Port | Check the last departure; it is earlier than you expect |
| Nowhere | Armenistis Lighthouse, Fokos, Ftelia, Agios Sostis | No bus serves the north. Vehicle, quad or tour only |
Buses run from two stations rather than one, which catches people out: Fabrika for the south-west, the Old Port station for Ano Mera and the south-east. Fares are a few euros and you buy at the kiosk rather than on board.
