Why take a ferry from Milos to Heraklion ?

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

Because it's the ideal way to travel with your family!
If you have children, there's no better way to travel from Milos to Heraklion as a family than by ferry. Everything is simpler. As soon as you leave Milos, imagine your children discovering the ship, spending long moments playing in the areas reserved for the youngest or in the video games and arcades (for teenagers), watching the latest movies in the cinema, sharing a family meal in the restaurant, or marveling at a magic show or other countless activities. Your children will have long lasting memories of the ferry trip between Milos and Heraklion.
To enjoy the incredible sea view
Generally, when we go on vacation by the sea, we look for a sea view as much as possible (at the restaurant, at the hotel, while hiking...). During the Milos Heraklion crossing, whether you are on deck, dining in the restaurant or relaxing in the comfortable lounges of the ANEK Lines or Minoan Lines ship, you will simply have a front row seat to the incredible spectacle that the sea offers. Everywhere, large windows will give you an extraordinary view of the azure blue sea to enjoy its soothing power.
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. However, when you board a ANEK Lines or Minoan Lines ferry in Milos, you are free to take as much luggage as you like, as long as it is contained in your vehicle. If you are traveling without a car, then you will be restricted in your movements all the way to Heraklion. However, we recommend that you ask the ANEK Lines or Minoan Lines crew, as luggage lockers are often available for passengers to store their luggage during the crossing.
