The Ios to Mykonos ferry schedule is available at the bottom of the article.
Mykonos is a lovely Greek island and a great base to start exploring the area. If you plan to take a day trip, Ios should be on your radar. This small island is famous for the incredible beaches, traditional villages and lively nightlife (but totally different than the one in Mykonos). The island is also home to Homer’s tomb and a lovely old castle.

On the 2 hours high speed ferry, the economy non smoking seat costs €28 per person, one way, while the business non smoking seat costs €34 per person, one way.

Where can I buy tickets from?
There are several ways to get tickets: from the online booking sites, from the ferry companies’ website and even from travel agencies. However, the simplest way is to get the tickets directly from the port. Just remember that if you plan to travel during the high season (July & August), make sure to buy the tickets several days in advance.
Does everyone charge the same prices?
The prices are the same, no matter where you get the tickets from.
Important note:
Please not that the ferry companies submit their schedules every Friday to the Ministry of Mercantile Marine and in some cases the schedules for July & August become available on online booking sites only several days before the vessels start operating on that route.
