Duration

Price
€10–45

Agios Stefanos sits about 7km from Mykonos Airport, officially a 6-minute drive, though real transfer operators quote closer to 15 minutes once you account for actual traffic and pickup. A taxi runs roughly €35 to €45; private transfers quote from about €40. There is no direct bus — the only public option runs airport to New Port every three hours, then requires a further connection, not a realistic option in practice if you're heading straight to the beach.

One detail worth knowing if your trip involves both a flight and a ferry: Agios Stefanos sits barely 2 minutes and about 1.5km from the New Port at Tourlos, where a taxi runs closer to €10. If timing allows, arriving by ferry rather than flight cuts this specific leg dramatically.

Getting There

A private transfer or taxi is the only realistic option directly to the beach. Book ahead in July and August — the island's small taxi fleet means rank queues at the airport can run long, and Agios Stefanos itself has limited on-demand taxi availability once you're there.

What You're Actually Getting To

Agios Stefanos is one of the closer beaches to Mykonos Town, family-friendly with calmer water than the south coast's beach-club scene, and sits within view of Delos across the strait on a clear day. It's a real, established beach rather than a hidden find, with a handful of tavernas and hotels along the shore.

Coming From the Port Instead

If you're arriving by ferry rather than flying in, the New Port to Agios Stefanos leg is dramatically shorter than the airport route — worth factoring in when you're deciding how to structure arrival day.
