If you are travelling around the Cyclades, a great island hopping route is from Santorini to Mykonos to Paros. While those travelling in the Dodecanese should go from Rhodes to Kos to Patmos.

There are several routes for island hopping around Greece by ferry. One of the most popular route is the ferry from Athens to Mykonos then the ferry from Mykonos to Naxos. You can also continue your journey onwards to either Paros or Santorini if you have time.
Whether it’s cheaper to fly or take a ferry to the Greek islands depends on the route, season, and how far the island is from Athens. Flights are often cheaper and faster for distant islands like Crete, Rhodes, or Santorini, especially if booked in advance with budget airlines like Aegean, Sky Express, or Ryanair. Ferries are usually cheaper for closer islands like Aegina, Hydra, or Tinos. However, ferries are a better option for those travelling with vehicles or looking for a scenic journey.
