Why take a ferry from Santorini to Paros ?

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

It's much less boring than on a plane
If we compare the speed, the plane is certainly the fastest way to go from Santorini to Paros. The problem is that you are stuck in your seat for several hours. During the Santorini Paros ferry trip with Cyclades Fast Ferries, ANEK Lines, Blue Star Ferries, Sea Jets, Golden Star Ferries or Minoan Lines, there are countless opportunities for entertainment with restaurants and bars, or to stroll and sunbathe on a promenade deck... A flight will never give you so many services during the trip.
Not to worry about the number of bags
One piece of luggage is free, all the others must be paid for. This is often the formula used when we travel with other modes of transportation, which very often leads to a significant increase in the bill. However, when you board a Minoan Lines, Golden Star Ferries, Sea Jets, Blue Star Ferries, ANEK Lines or Cyclades Fast Ferries ferry in Santorini, 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 Paros. However, we recommend that you ask the Minoan Lines, Golden Star Ferries, Sea Jets, Blue Star Ferries, ANEK Lines or Cyclades Fast Ferries crew, as luggage lockers are often available for passengers to store their luggage during the crossing.
Enjoy the fresh sea air
It has been proven that sea air has many health benefits. During the Santorini-Paros crossing, access the outside of the Minoan Lines, Golden Star Ferries, Sea Jets, Blue Star Ferries, ANEK Lines or Cyclades Fast Ferries ship to take a breath of fresh air. The fresh sea air and the waves that rock the ferry will instantly soothe you. You'll arrive in Paros perfectly zen and full of energy.
