Why take a ferry from Milos to Ios ?

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

To not get tired, unlike the car
Because of the increased vigilance required to drive a car on long journeys, one can say that driving is exhausting. On the contrary, the experience of a Milos Ios ferry crossing is ultra relaxing. On board, depending on the LANE Sea Line, Zante Ferries, Hellenic Seaways, ANEK Lines or Sea Jets ship in service, everything is done to relax in the calm of comfortable reclining lounges, to give you time to yourself, to lounge on the outside decks, to entertain and have fun. No doubt you'll arrive in Ios completely relaxed.
For the comfort of a cabin
Although it is not compulsory to book a cabin for the crossing from Milos to Ios, you are depriving yourself of a comfort that the ferry is the only mode of transport to offer. Equipped with bunks, private bathrooms and sometimes even portholes or balconies, the cabins are just like real hotel rooms. If their use is more obvious during a night crossing, it is perfectly possible to book one during the day.
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 Milos Ios 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 Ios. However, we recommend that you ask the LANE Sea Line, Zante Ferries, Hellenic Seaways, ANEK Lines or Sea Jets crew, as luggage lockers are often available for passengers to store their luggage during the crossing.
