Mykonos island has two ports. The new one is located in Tourlos district just 3,5 KM from Mykonos town, and the old port which is very close to the town of Mykonos. So, this can be mind confusing but have no worries! We are here to help!
The New Port (Tourlos) is the main port of Mykonos and operates exclusively the typical passenger ferries and cruise ships. It is located 3 km north of Mykonos Town. So, whether you are traveling from Athens ports (Piraeus, Rafina, or Lavrio) or another island on a typical passenger ferry, or cruise ship you will arrive at, or depart from the New Mykonos Port (Tourlos).
The old port in Mykonos is located in Mykonos town (Chora) and it operated as the main port for ferries till 20 years ago. Recently, it has been used by some fishermen and yachts.
The town is a Cycladic village built amphitheatrically, also known as Chora following the common practice in Greece when the name of the island itself is the same as the name of the principal town. A great number of bars and nightclubs can be found in the capital, proving that the fame of Mykonos to be a party island is not just fame, it is a fact. It has whitewashed cubic houses with wooden colored doors, windows, and balconies, narrow streets forming a labyrinth. Numerous cafes, chic boutiques, souvenir shops, and fine jewelry shops are helping visitors to enjoy their days in the beautiful capital. Worth seeing in Town is the church complex of Panagia Paraportiani, the famous whitewashed windmills, trademark of the island, the Little Venice which is one of the most beautiful parts of the capital, and the scene forms a wonderful and unique image that charms everyone by its incredible beauty and its magical atmosphere. Another trademark of the island is Petros the pelican.
Agios Ioannis is a small tourist village in the southwest of the island, 2.5 km from Ornos. It is built amphitheatrically and located across from Delos, combining natural beauty with excellent tourist accommodations. Pink and purple flowers drape the stairways and balconies of the white houses. The lovely sandy beach of Agios Ioannis with crystal clean waters took its name from the church that is located here. The beach is recommended for those who want peace and relaxation.
You’ll also find a plethora of diverse restaurants, taverns with tasty Greek food, and abundant opportunities for water sports, ranging from scuba diving to surfing in turquoise waters. Close proximity to the nearby villages allows for opportunities to traverse the streets, admire the classical architecture, or enjoy a picturesque view of the nearby Delos Island. Scenes from the 1989 movie ‘Shirley Valentine’ were filmed in Agios Ioannis.
As you are in Ag. Ioannis you will have now the chance to admire the famous island of Delos.
Delos is a Greek island and archaeological site in the Aegean Sea’s Cyclades archipelago, opposite Mykonos island. The mythological birthplace of Apollo and Artemis was a major religious center and port during the 1st millennium B.C. The island’s ruins encompass Doric temples, a synagoque, markets, an amphitheater, houses with mosaics, and the iconic Terrace of the Lions statues.
