Destination-specific money tips
- •Mykonos is known for being one of the more expensive Greek islands; prices for food and drinks, especially in popular areas like Mykonos Town and near famous beaches, can be significantly higher than on other islands.
- •While credit cards are widely accepted in tourist establishments, always have some cash handy for smaller tavernas, beach vendors, and bus tickets.
- •ATMs are plentiful in Mykonos Town (Chora) and Ornos, but be aware of potential withdrawal fees from your bank and the local ATM operator.
- •Taxis can be expensive and sometimes hard to find during peak season; pre-booking or using ride-sharing apps (if available and reliable) might be an option, but local buses are the most budget-friendly way to get around.
- •Expect to pay a premium for anything with a view, especially sunset views in Little Venice or from high-end restaurants and bars.
