Athens - Mykonos
Breakfast at hotel.
Transfer to Piraeus port for your ferry embarkation to Mykonos Island.
(Regular ferry Dep. 07.30 Arr. 12.45 / High speed Boat Dep. 07.00 Arr. 09.35)
Mykonos sits amidst the Aegean Sea like a unique jewel handcrafted by time, the Greek sun and an anonymous local craftsman. All that can be said or written about Mykonos would be just too little. For centuries Mykonos existed under the shade of the religious center of Delos and it had to wait until the 20th century to reach its international status and win a place on the world tourist map. Mykonos, famously called 'the island of the winds' due to the constant wind that blows, is the most popular and cosmopolitan island of the Cyclades and considered as one the most famous islands of the world. The sunlight of Mykonos from its first sunshine of dawn all the way to its last of the sunset is astonishing and supplements an atmosphere of images that seem to have sprung out of a painting. Arrival in Mykonos and transfer to your hotel. Rest of the day is free in order to explore the island.
