Mykonos Town
When the government made Chora an architectural landmark, they
prohibited motorized traffic on its streets. Only a few small
delivery vehicles are allowed. The only way to get around town is to
walk. Many of the town's large hotels are found on the busy
peripheral road. However, much of the rest of the island is served
by a good transportation system.
Buses run frequently. There are two stations in Chora. The north
station is near the middle of the harbour below the Leto Hotel. From
here, buses leave for Tourlos, Agios Stefanos, the northwest coast
hotels, the inland village of Ano Mera, and the far east coast
beaches of Elia, Kalo Livadi, and Kalafatis. Schedules are posted,
though subject to change. The south station is a 10-minute walk
inland from the harbour, near Square Laka. From this stop, buses
leave for the airport, Ayios Ioannis, Ornos, Psarou, and Platis
Yialos; from Ornos or Platis Yialos you can catch a small boat to
one of the popular south coast beaches.
Taxi station is on the central square of Mykonos waterfront.
Small boats to Super Paradise, Agrari, and Elia depart from Platis
Yialos every morning, weather permitting; there is also service from
Ornos in high season (July and August) only. Boat service is highly
seasonal, with almost continuous service in high season and no boats
from October through May.
Excursion caiques to Delos depart Tuesday through Sunday between
8:30 and 13.00, from the west side of the harbour near the tourist
office (for the time schedule, please consult the tourist office).
The trip lasts about 25 minutes.
