🇬🇷 About eSIMs in Greece

Greece has surprisingly good mobile networks, especially given the geography. Wanderly Greece eSIM plans use Cosmote or Vodafone — the two carriers with the best combined mainland and island coverage. You get strong 4G in Athens, Thessaloniki, Santorini, Mykonos, Crete, Rhodes and Corfu, plus continuous signal on most ferry routes between them.

You will use Beat (Greek Uber) for taxis in Athens, Ferryhopper for island crossings, and Google Maps for the whitewashed alleys of Oia and Fira. Plan on 10–12 GB per week — island hopping burns more data than travelers expect because you check ferries constantly. Two-week travelers usually want 15 GB.

Ferry Wi-Fi is usually terrible, so an eSIM that works at sea is genuinely useful for keeping in touch or booking the next hotel while crossing.

How to activate your eSIM in Greece

  1. 1
    Install on Wi-Fi
    Add the QR before you fly. Delivery is immediate.
  2. 2
    Enable in Athens
    At ATH, switch to the Greece eSIM for data and enable Data Roaming.
  3. 3
    Install Ferryhopper
    Ferryhopper is the go-to app for booking Greek ferries — needs data to check schedules and refunds.
  4. 4
    Keep home SIM for iMessage
    Wanderly Greece plans are data-only. iMessage, WhatsApp and FaceTime work fine over data.

Greece eSIM FAQ

Which network does it use in Greece?

Cosmote or Vodafone — the two largest Greek carriers with the strongest island coverage.

Will it work on Santorini and Mykonos?

Yes, both islands have full 4G in every village and beach.

Does it work on the ferries between islands?

Coverage runs close to shore and near larger islands. Middle-of-the-Aegean stretches may briefly drop, but return as you approach the next port.

How much data for 2 weeks island hopping?

15–20 GB is comfortable. You check ferries and hotels more often than you expect.

Should I choose Greece-only or Europe regional?

Greece-only for a pure Greek trip. Europe regional if you fly in via Rome, Athens–Istanbul, or add Italy/Turkey.
