HOW TO GET TO AMORGOS

 

From Athens

Ferry boats and Highspeed catamaran services run daily from Piraeus.

The two ports on Amorgos where the ferries come in are Katapola and Aegiali (changes on even and odd days).

The journey from port of Piraeus to one of these ports will last 6-9 hours and costs around 30 euros (economy class, one way) and 43 euros (business class, recommended!) – look for a comfortable place!

From other Cyclades islands

Connections between Amorgos and Naxos are very good with the small ferry, Express Scopelitis, running each day and connecting the Little Cyclades and Amorgos, as well as the big Blue Star ferries running to and from Santorini, Astypalea and Rhodes.

Both ports have a boat travel agency and there you can buy tickets and get information regarding the boat schedules.
