Pireus - Patmos

Access to the island of Patmos is primarily achieved through sea, with the connection of the unique commercial port of Patmos at Skala, with Piraeus and the neighboring islands. The connection of Piraeus and Patmos is carried out by the company Blue Star Ferries and the islands routes are:

• Piraeus-Patmos-Leros-Kos-Rhodes & Syros-Amorgos (Katapola)
• Piraeus-Kalymnos-Kos-Rhodes & Astipalaia-Patmos-Leipsoi-Leros-Nisyros-Tilos-Simi-Kastelorizo

Your trip from Athens to Patmos will last about eight hours. Tickets may be purchased from the headquarters of Blue Star Ferries or any travel agency. Ships typically leave Piraeus from the gate E1 (heading to Dodecanese Islands). You may find more information regarding the above routes www.bluestarferries.gr. A fifth route was established for the 2015 season, with the aim of linking Patmos, Piraeus and other neighboring islands of the Dodecanese, with Super Fast Ferry of the Blue Star Ferries company. This fifth course will be held during July and August.

Catamaran

In addition, during the summer months and usually starting from April – May (just before Easter), the company Dodecanesos Seaways daily links Patmos with the neighboring islands of Symi, Kos, Rhodes, Kalymnos, Leros, Lipsi and Samos. Every travel agency is usually considered a sale point. The duration of your trip varies depending on the distance of the island from which you start to, in order to get to Patmos. We would advise you to be precise with the time of your departure, as these ships strictly abide routes. Indicatively, you can view route for 2015 here: www.12ne.gr.
