Best time to book
The Cyclades islands, such as Mykonos, Santorini, Naxos, and Paros, are among the most popular destinations in Greece, attracting thousands of travelers each year who come to enjoy the sun, the sea, and their unique charm. That’s why the earlier you book your ferry tickets, the better!
The best time to book your ferry tickets to the Cyclades mainly depends on the season you wish to travel, demand, and how flexible your travel plans are.
- If you're planning to travel during high season (June-September), we recommend booking at least 1-2 months in advance, especially if you want to travel by high-speed ferry. The Cyclades are very popular destinations during summer, so last-minute bookings may be more expensive or even unavailable, especially on busier routes, such as Athens - Mykonos, Athens - Paros, and Athens - Tinos.
Tip: note that ferry companies usually promote special offers early in the high season, so the best time to book cheaper tickets to the Cyclades is probably between May and June.
- As for trips in spring (April-May) or autumn (September-October), you can normally book a few weeks in advance and still find good availability. Ticket prices may also be a bit lower compared to the peak season months. However, ferry crossings to the Cyclades are usually less regular, so we suggest booking your spot early enough to ensure availability.
- If you're visiting in the off-season (November-March), making your reservation a few days in advance is usually enough. Bear in mind, however, that ferries run less frequently.
Information about the Cyclades
Boasting picture-perfect landscapes, whitewashed architecture, stunning Aegean waters, it's no wonder the Cyclades are the most iconic island group in Greece. From world-famous hotspots such as Santorini, Paros and Mykonos, to hidden gems such as Amorgos, Astypalaia, and Folegandros, the Cyclades offer something for every kind of traveler.
Each Cyclades island has its own special flair — whether it's the lunar excellence of Milos, the scenic villages of Naxos, the unspoiled beaches of Koufonisia, or the serene atmosphere of Sifnos.
The region is ideal for island hopping, as regular ferry crossings between the islands allow you to explore multiple destinations in one life-changing trip! Find out how to organize the ultimate Cyclades island-hopping tour on Ferryhopper's detailed guide.
The Cyclades also enchant visitors with their rich history and unique traditions. Don’t miss impressive archeological sites and museums, Byzantine churches, and local festivals that offer a look into the islands’ authentic way of life. Foodies are likely to be blown away by regional dishes and delicacies, such as fava, zucchini fritters, and fresh seafood — all best enjoyed at a taverna by the sea.
Tips and advice for your trip
Here are 5 useful tips to keep in mind for your trip to the Cyclades islands:
- Note that the ports in Athens and the Cyclades can be extra busy in the months of July and August. Therefore, we recommend arriving at the departure port at least 1 hour in advance, especially if you are bringing along your vehicle.
- Looking for a quiet time in the Greek islands, away from the hustle and bustle? Shoulder season (May-June and September-October) is probably the best time for you to spend your holidays in the Cyclades.
- If you want to make the most of your stay on the Cyclades and explore the islands at your own pace, we suggest transporting your vehicle on the ferry or renting one there.
- Visiting Greece for the first time? Plan the perfect 7-day Greece itinerary, including Paros, Naxos, and Santorini, with Ferryhopper.
- Check out all up-to-date ferry routes for the Greek islands in 2025, and find the latest schedules and ticket prices for your ferry trip to the Cyclades.
Onboard services
For your ferry trip to the Cyclades from the ports of Athens (Piraeus, Rafina and Lavrio) or other islands, you can choose between a conventional ferry or a quicker high-speed vessel, depending on your travel plans and needs.
The ferries normally have modern amenities to ensure a comfortable and safe journey. Onboard, you can find spacious lounges, bars serving snacks, coffee, and drinks, as well as shops and restaurants. Ferries to the Cyclades usually also offer airplane-style seats in, while several companies also provide business-class and VIP seating options.
Most ferries are accessible for passengers with disabilities, featuring elevators and escalators. Wi-Fi is available with most companies, such as Seajets, Fast Ferries, Golden Star Ferries, and Blue Star Ferries vessels, usually for a fee.
If you’re traveling with a pet, all ferries to and from the Cyclades allow pets to travel for free on the deck or in designated pet areas, while you can also book pet-friendly cabins on larger conventional ferries.
Moreover, all conventional and some high-speed ferries to the Cycades are equipped with car decks, allowing you to bring along your vehicle.
