Since both Athens and Mykonos are in the Schengen Area, a passport is not required for European Union (EU) or Schengen-associated country citizens. A national ID card is sufficient.
We recommend using the ferry as it is the most popular way to get from Athens to Mykonos among Omio's users.
Greece uses the euro (€) as its currency. Travelers can use both cash and cards, but cash is often preferred in smaller shops, local markets, and remote areas, while cards are widely accepted in cities, hotels, and larger establishments.
In Mykonos, travelers should be cautious of overpriced taxi fares and unlicensed drivers, especially during peak season. Common scams include inflated prices at beach clubs and restaurants, as well as unofficial vendors selling counterfeit goods. Petty theft, such as pickpocketing in crowded areas, can also occur, so keeping valuables secure is advised. Staying aware and using official services helps ensure a safe visit.
Pack lightweight, versatile clothing suitable for the destination's climate, and use secure, lockable luggage to protect belongings. Keep essential items like travel documents, medication, and valuables in a carry-on bag for easy access. Use packing organizers or cubes to maximize space and maintain order. Lastly, include a small first aid kit and personal hygiene items for added comfort during travel.
