Mykonos Port — Attraction in Municipality of Mykonos

I cannot say Mykonos is worth visiting. It is a cluster f… of huge proportions. As a matter of fact, the Greek ferry services are a complete nightmare. Unless you’re rich, sadly IMO, Greece isn’t worth it.

Ferry #1 from Athens to Mykonos. There was no one to tell me which ferry to get on and no information desk. After waiting in line for 25 minutes (with 1 person in front of me) — they make the US DMV look fast; I was told to board the wrong boat. I waited in line to board the wrong boat, only to be told that the correct ferry was at the other end.

Mykonos to Paros ferry. I arrived 40 minutes before the ferry was to leave. There was a ferry waiting but it was the wrong ferry. I waited with over a hundred other people and the ferry finally arrived 10 minutes late. So I waited almost an hour. But there was no announcement that it was the correct ferry and I waited among a hundred people who did not board. I kept waiting for an announcement or for the people to start moving but nothing happened until 10 minutes later when another ferry started to arrive. For this one they made an announcement that it was going to Naxos. That was the moment I realized the ferry at the opposite end of the pier must be mine. It took me several minutes to get through the thick thong of people and as I ran for the ferry, and they saw me, they lifted the boarding plank.

When I got there I begged the guy to let me board but instead he screamed at me. He said the boat had been sitting for over 20 minutes, which was untrue and told me I could not board. I kept saying, “please stop yelling at me” but he would not. He told me to go buy another €60/$80 one way ticket off this ridiculously overpriced island.

I had to wait another 2 hours for the next ferry. This is all after a night of no sleep from the all night music and screaming in Mykonos; on my birthday ☹️

Is the old town gorgeous? Yes? Is it worth going? I can’t answer that for you. For me, knowing what I know now, the answer is no.

Yogurt and granola is Mykonos is over $20. Coffee is over $6.

Had I to do this over again, I’d go to Croatia instead. Greece has gravely disappointed in many aspects. Mostly, the difficulty of “ferry hopping” and the lack of customer service at the ferries plus getting screamed at by a dock worker on my birthday was sorely...
