Route guide
Piraeus to Amorgos ferry
Piraeus–Amorgos links Athens with the rugged eastern edge of the Cyclades. Blue Star Ferries
currently publishes up to three routes each week and a journey from about 8 hours 30 minutes.
Departures are shown from Piraeus Gates E6 and E7, and the live booking result should be used to
confirm the operating vessel, intermediate calls and exact Amorgos arrival harbour.
This is a long conventional ferry crossing where accommodation choice can materially affect comfort.
Passenger-and-vehicle ferries allow cars as well as foot passengers, while cabins and reserved seats
are worth comparing for evening or overnight travel. Multi-stop Cyclades itineraries can extend the
actual journey beyond the published minimum time.
Amorgos is mountainous and elongated, with the best-known visitor areas around Katapola, Chora and
Aegiali. Blue Star currently shows onward links from Amorgos to Astypalea, Donoussa, Paros, Naxos
and Iraklia. Because the island has more than one ferry harbour, checking the exact port before
arranging a hotel transfer or hire vehicle is particularly important.
Even on Piraeus to Amorgos, fares and vessel assignments can vary by departure, so compare the live
options rather than relying only on a typical journey time.
For Piraeus to Amorgos, the advertised crossing time is only one part of the journey. Allow for port
access, check-in, boarding and disembarkation when deciding which departure best fits the day.
