There are two ways to get from Mykonos to Naxos: by slow or fast ferry. It’s a very straightforward and quick route, ideal for a day trip.
Mykonos to Naxos ferries take less than 2 hours to reach Naxos, and this is usually a route that is part of the typical long ferry routes from Piraeus that go through many Cyclades islands (such as Ios, Paros, Tinos, Sifnos, etc). There are at least five ferries daily in the high season (May to October).If you cannot find an available route from Mykonos to Naxos on Ferryhopper, it is because the ferry operators usually announce the available routes and timetables around 4-6 months in advance only every year, so you should better check closer to your dates.
Here are the ferry options you have, basically:
How Long Does It Take | Cost* | |
Ferry (slow) (from Mykonos Tourlos New Port) | 1 hours & 25 minutes | 36 euros |
Ferry (fast) (from Mykonos Tourlos New Port) | 35 minutes | 58 euros |
Naxos island has an airport, but no flights are available between the two islands. Usually, the airports on Greek islands operate flights between Athens and the island.

BLUE STAR FERRIES

Bluestar Ferries are the biggest you can take to go to Naxos from Mykonos and are the most stable, but also the slowest (1 hour and 25 minutes to arrive).
No matter how bumpy or windy, you won’t feel much on Bluestar Ferries. However, the Greek Port Authorities may not allow any ferries to depart in case of strong winds for safety reasons. The best way to check for the available Blue Star Ferry schedule is to visit the Ferryhopper website.
Where can you book Blue Star ferry tickets from Mykonos to Naxos?
I highly recommend you book your ferry tickets online through Ferryhopper before you even land in Greece. It is the easiest and safest way to guarantee you will get a seat.
In fact, for July, August, and September, I recommend you book the ferry tickets online at least one month in advance. To be honest, you will always find a seat on a ferry, but if you plan to take your vehicle, you must book very well in advance, as there are limited spaces for cars and motorbikes in their garages.
BE CAREFUL THOUGH:
As long as the email you receive from Ferryhopper has a barcode, you will be fine with entering the ferry with this. However, the email you will receive from them will be very clear. Otherwise, you will get instructions on how to get the printout ticket, as some smaller ferry companies don’t have a barcode system on their tickets (very old-fashioned indeed…).However, this is not a problem; all you have to do is go to a kiosk outside the ferry, and people there will print out the ticket for you. Ferryhopper will give you instructions on where to go exactly.
How much does a Blue Star Ferry ticket cost?

SEAJET FERRIES

SEAJET Ferries are the fastest way to go from Mykonos to Naxos, but they are also the least stable and the most expensive. The best way to check the available SEAJET Ferry times schedule is to visit the Ferryhopper website.
I think paying double the price only to be 1 hour faster to Naxos does not make a lot of sense. I would rather take the slow Blue Star ferry between these two islands, but if money is not an issue, just take the fastest option available.
Where can you book SEAJET ferry tickets from Mykonos to Naxos?
I highly recommend you book your ferry tickets online through Ferryhopper.
FLIGHTS TO NAXOS
Naxos has an airport, but it’s only used for domestic flights between Athens and Naxos.
CONCLUSION
You have two options for the Mykonos to Naxos ferries: the slow and the fast. I recommend taking the slow instead of the fast one because it’s much cheaper and not worth it.
For the last few years, Ferryhopper has been the best way to check timetables and book ferry tickets online. I highly recommend it to everyone looking to get a ferry from Mykonos to Naxos.
