Visiting Mykonos after Folegandros

If you are considering going to Mykonos after spending time on Folegandros island in Greece, you'll find that there is one ferry per day or 7 ferries per week.

Due to the distance between these two Greek islands in the Cyclades, the travel times are not the quickest, and average out at 4 hours and 50 minutes.

Additionally, the Folegandros Mykonos ferry route is operated by just the one company – SeaJets. These are expensive ferry services to take, and tourists should expect ferry ticket prices to be around 84.70 Euros.

The ferry schedule has the ferry departing Folegandros at 11.30 every day, and arriving at Mykonos sometime around 16.20.
