The Mykonos to Rafina crossing connects Mykonos and Rafina in Greece.
For a departure from Mykonos, start by locating the ferry terminal and checking how to reach the correct boarding point. Most conventional and high-speed ferries use the New Port at Tourlos, north of Mykonos Town. Buses, taxis and sea buses connect the port with Chora and onward transport around the island.
On the other side of the crossing, Rafina is your arrival port. Rafina is the main east-Attica ferry gateway and is substantially closer to Athens International Airport than Piraeus. The port is compact but very busy in summer, so arrive early and follow the exact vessel and boarding area on the ticket.
Compare the Mykonos departure and Rafina arrival on the same dated itinerary. Sailing times and intermediate calls can differ between directions, so use the Mykonos to Rafina result when planning your trip rather than assuming the outward timetable applies in reverse.
Check the total cost for everyone travelling, including any vehicle, reserved seat, cabin or other option offered. A later arrival in Rafina may affect your next connection or accommodation, so compare the whole journey as well as the fare.
