Destination-specific money tips
- •Mykonos is one of the pricier Greek islands; expect higher costs for accommodation and beach clubs compared to other Cyclades.
- •While credit cards are accepted in most tourist spots, always have some cash for smaller shops, local buses, and tips.
- •ATMs in Mykonos Town (Chora) are generally reliable, but avoid using ATMs attached to independent exchange offices which may charge higher fees.
- •Beach clubs can add up quickly; consider visiting during off-peak hours or weekdays for potentially lower minimum spends.
- •Tipping is not obligatory but a 5-10% tip for excellent service at restaurants or for drivers is a nice gesture.
