Staying connected in Greece
What the coverage maps do not tell you, and what you will actually use the data for.
Where the signal actually drops
Cosmote, Vodafone and Nova cover the mainland and larger islands well. The gaps are what you would expect from the geography: mountainous mainland interior, small islands away from the main port and town, and boat crossings between islands where you can lose signal mid-passage. Ferry routes in the Cyclades are patchy.
What you will use your phone for here
Ferry schedules, which change with weather, are the thing you will check most, and they change often enough that a live connection genuinely matters. Otherwise maps, translation for menus outside tourist areas, and photo uploads.
Before you go
Island-hopping plans get disrupted by cancelled ferries, so being reachable and able to rebook matters more here than in most destinations.
How much data you will actually need
Moderate, driven by photography and constant schedule checking.
