Four sailings connect the two Cycladic islands every day. The first ferry departs the port of Naxos at 09:00, with subsequent departures spread throughout the day until the final service at 17:50. This frequency establishes a key inter-island link within the Cyclades archipelago, used by residents and for tourism connections.
From Naxos, other ferry services connect to destinations including Heraklion, Ios, and Santorini. Mykonos also functions as a significant ferry hub, with routes to the port of Rafina on the Greek mainland, as well as to other Aegean islands like Andros, Chios, and Samos. The high number of daily sailings on this particular link makes it a primary connector between two of the most visited islands in the group.
