Why take a ferry from Chalki to Heraklion ?

Whether you're travelling solo, with a partner or with the family, a Chalki to Heraklion ferry can be a convenient and enjoyable option for getting to Heraklion. Here are 3 reasons why we think Chalki to Heraklion ferry is an ideal way to travel.

To not get tired, unlike the car
Long car journeys are tiring and require constant vigilance when driving. On the contrary, the experience of a Chalki Heraklion ferry crossing is ultra relaxing. Ferries operated by Blue Star Ferries or ANEK Lines are designed with areas dedicated to rest or entertainment: lounges or cabins, outdoor solarium, bars and restaurants... No doubt you'll arrive in Heraklion completely relaxed.
Not to worry about the number of bags
With the train, bus or plane, a free baggage allowance is often applied and any additional baggage generates an additional cost. On the Chalki Heraklion ferry, you can take as much luggage as you want, within the capacity of your vehicle. If you are traveling without a car, then you will be restricted in your movements all the way to Heraklion. However, it is worth asking the Blue Star Ferries or ANEK Lines staff if the ship has a luggage room where you can leave your luggage until Heraklion.
No need to worry about traveling with your bike
On the train, bus or plane, it is often very complicated and sometimes impossible to travel with this cumbersome companion: your bike. However, on a ferry, you don't have this problem: your bike is loaded directly into the huge garage of the boat. You leave it there for the duration of the Chalki-Heraklion crossing in complete safety and without fear of it being damaged. You will find it when you disembark on your arrival in Heraklion.
