04Schedule by season

Amorgos (Katapola) to Mykonos ferry schedule by season.

Ferryhopper lists this route from April to October, on 1 to 7 days a week. Its monthly table is based on last year's data and shows Seajets sailing anywhere from once a week in the quietest month to every day at the other extreme, with no data at all for November to March. On 12 August 2026, the day we sampled, there was a single departure from Katapola, at 14:00, arriving at 16:50. With so few boats, look up the sailing days for your dates first and build the rest of the trip around them. In winter there is no direct boat, so you will need to change at another island.

The Journey

The Amorgos (Katapola) to Mykonos crossing.

Amorgos and Mykonos are two of the most different islands in the Cyclades, and the direct boat between them is a summer-only Seajets service. Outside the April to October season there is no direct link at all, and even in summer there is often just one sailing on the days it runs, so this is a crossing to plan your dates around rather than one you can leave to the last minute.

Amorgos is long, steep and quiet, the island of the cliff-hung Hozoviotissa monastery, walking trails between old villages and deep blue coves. Mykonos is its busy, glamorous neighbour to the north-west, with the windmills and Little Venice, beach clubs and a nightlife that makes it one of the liveliest islands in Greece. Travellers often use this crossing to swap a week of hiking and swimming for a few nights of town life, or to finish a Small Cyclades trip near Mykonos airport.

The boats leave from Katapola, the main port of Amorgos. The island also has a northern port at Aegiali, and Ferryhopper lists Aegiali to Mykonos as a pairing, but it showed no sailings or fares for it when we checked. If you are staying in the north of Amorgos, plan on getting yourself to Katapola.

This is not a cheap hop. With a single high-speed operator, one adult cost €89.70 when we checked and two adults €179.39, and there was no car fare on offer. If you are on a budget, or travelling in the off-season, the practical answer is to go via Naxos or Paros, which both have boats from Amorgos and plenty onward to Mykonos.

How long the crossing takes

In this direction the Seajets boats take about 2 hr 40 min to 2 hr 50 min. Ferryhopper's schedule card gives 2 hr 40 min as the shortest trip from Katapola, and its month-by-month data for this direction shows 2 hr 40 min to 2 hr 50 min through the season. Its general route summary quotes 2 hr to 2 hr 50 min, but the 2 hour figure belongs to the opposite direction, from Mykonos to Katapola. On our 12 August 2026 sample, the only sailing took 2 hr 50 min. As on any high-speed route, a rough sea can add time, so leave a margin if you have a flight or onward ferry to catch on Mykonos.

05The ports

Where the Amorgos (Katapola) to Mykonos ferry docks.

Departure port

Amorgos

AMO · 36.8333° N 25.8500° E

Katapola is the harbour to head for. It is a pretty port village with tavernas and a small beach, so it is an easy place to wait if you arrive early. Chora, the hilltop capital, is a short ride away, and our route data notes a bus between the two as well as taxis. If you are staying at Aegiali in the north, the drive down takes longer, so arrange a taxi or transfer ahead of time rather than relying on finding one on the day. Arrive in good time: the afternoon high-speed boat does not wait, and in summer the quay fills when a ship is due.

Arrival port

Mykonos

JMK · 37.4467° N 25.3289° E

The Seajets boat brings you into Mykonos New Port at Tourlos, north of Mykonos Town, rather than the old harbour on the town waterfront. Local buses run from the new port into town, and the SeaBus water taxi connects the new port with the old port area. Taxis wait at the port but are never plentiful in summer, so many visitors arrange a hotel shuttle or transfer in advance. There are car hire offices close to the port if you plan to drive. On our sample day the boat arrived at 16:50, which leaves time to settle in before evening.

06On Board

On board the Amorgos (Katapola) to Mykonos ferry.

This is a longer high-speed crossing, so comfort matters more than on the short hops. On the Seajets boats you sit in enclosed, air-conditioned lounges with numbered airline-style seats, and business-class seating is offered on some vessels for a quieter ride. There is a snack bar for drinks and light food, but no sleeping cabins, and outdoor space is limited. Luggage goes on racks or in a storage area rather than being checked in; our route data puts the usual allowance at up to 50 kg a person. Travelling with a pet? Include it when you book and carry its health papers.

07Weather and cancellations

Wind, weather and cancellations on the Amorgos (Katapola) to Mykonos route.

Nearly three hours on a high-speed boat across open water makes this crossing more exposed to the weather than most. The meltemi, the dry north wind of the Cyclades summer, peaks in July and August, and Seajets craft are the vessels most affected when it blows hard: they can be delayed or held in port by the coast guard. Because there is no second operator and often only one boat a day, a cancellation can cost you a day. If it happens, ask the operator or your booking platform for the next available sailing or a refund, and consider the indirect routes via Naxos or Paros, where larger conventional ships also run.

08Travel Tips

Amorgos (Katapola) to Mykonos ferry travel tips.

  1. Check the sailing days for your dates first: with a single operator and sometimes only one boat, the ferry sets your itinerary.

  2. Make sure your ticket says Katapola; Ferryhopper had no sailings listed from Aegiali to Mykonos when we checked.

  3. If your budget is tight, compare the direct fare of €89.70 with a two-step trip on the booking page before you commit.

  4. Two adults paid €179.39 on Ferryhopper's fare table, so for couples the two-step route via Naxos or Paros can be worth pricing.

  5. Arrange your Mykonos transfer before you sail, as taxis at the new port are scarce in July and August.

09Alternatives

Other ways between Amorgos (Katapola) and Mykonos.

For the return trip, see our Mykonos to Amorgos page. If the direct boat does not run on your date, you can change islands: Amorgos has ferries to Naxos, Paros, Koufonisia, Ios, Syros and Santorini, and each of those islands has its own boats to Mykonos. Naxos and Paros are usually the most flexible, since they also have the most onward sailings. Amorgos has no airport; the nearest flights are from Naxos (JNX), Paros (PAS) or Santorini (JTR), and Mykonos has an airport (JMK) for flying out.

Questions

Amorgos (Katapola) to Mykonos ferry: frequently asked questions.

  • About 2 hr 40 min to 2 hr 50 min on the Seajets high-speed boat from Katapola. Ferryhopper's shortest listed trip in this direction is 2 hr 40 min, and on our 12 August 2026 sample the Super Jet 2 took 2 hr 50 min. Rough seas can make it a little longer.

  • When we checked Ferryhopper on 24 September 2026, one adult cost €89.70 and two adults €179.39. The price was the same on our 12 August 2026 sample. Ferryhopper showed no car fare for this route. Fares can change with the date and demand, so check the booking page for your day.

  • Only from April to October, on 1 to 7 days a week depending on the month, according to Ferryhopper's data from last year. On 12 August 2026, the day we sampled, there was a single sailing at 14:00. From November to March there is no direct boat.

  • Seajets is the only operator on the direct route, using high-speed boats such as the Super Jet 2, which sailed on our 12 August 2026 sample. With no competitor on this crossing, there is no cheaper conventional alternative on the direct route; the budget option is to change at Naxos or Paros.

  • Ferryhopper showed no car fare for this route when we checked, and our sources do not confirm vehicle space on the direct Seajets boats. If you need to move a car, search with the vehicle added, or look at routes via Naxos or Paros, where larger ferries run.

  • From Katapola, the main port of Amorgos. Ferryhopper lists Aegiali to Mykonos as a route pairing but showed no sailings or fares for it when we checked. If you are staying around Aegiali, allow extra time to get down to Katapola.

  • At the New Port in Tourlos, north of Mykonos Town. From there, local buses and taxis run into town, and the SeaBus water taxi links the new port with the old harbour. Taxis are scarce in summer, so a pre-booked transfer is the easiest way to reach your room.

  • Yes, as early as you can. There is only one operator and often one sailing a day, so if the boat is full, the next direct option may be a day or more later. Booking early also means you know your arrival time for arranging a transfer on Mykonos.

  • Not realistically. The crossing takes around 2 hr 40 min to 2 hr 50 min each way and there was only one sailing on our 12 August 2026 sample, leaving Katapola at 14:00. Plan to spend at least one night on Mykonos.

  • Summer north winds can delay or cancel the high-speed boats, and the port authority can keep them in harbour. Contact Seajets or your booking platform to move to the next sailing or claim a refund. Because the direct route has few departures, the quickest fix may be a larger ship to Naxos or Paros, then an onward boat to Mykonos.

  • Seajets runs the reverse crossing in the same April to October season, and it is quicker that way, with trips from about 2 hours. One adult also cost €89.70 in that direction when we checked. See our Mykonos to Amorgos page for times and tips.
