Ferry to Santorini: Travel Guide

When to take the ferry to Santorini?

Summer temperatures average between 25 and 35 degrees Celsius, with possible heat peaks in July and August. The days are long and sunny, perfect for a beach vacation or exploring the country's archaeological sites. However, bear in mind that this is also Greece's most touristic season, which means that places of interest can be busier and prices can be higher.

If you prefer to avoid the tourist crowds, spring and autumn are also good seasons to travel in Greece. In April, May, September and October, temperatures are mild, fluctuating between 20 and 25 degrees Celsius. Beaches are less crowded and accommodation rates can be lower. It's also an ideal time to explore the Greek islands, avoiding the summer heatwave.

Discover the country from Santorini port

Greece is a multifaceted country with thousands of islands and islets, each offering its own charm and atmosphere. Ferries are a very popular means of transportation for travelers wishing to explore the Greek islands. Ferries generally operate from May to September, but some routes also operate outside this period. The main ports for ferries in Greece are Athens, Piraeus, Thessaloniki and Heraklion, Crete.

The Greek islands are famous for their natural beauty, traditional architecture and fascinating history. One of the most popular islands is Santorini, known for its spectacular sea views and white houses with blue roofs. The islands of Mykonos and Rhodes are also very popular, offering a lively nightlife and beautiful beaches. For those looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of island life, quieter islands like Milos and Sifnos are perfect options.

Discover the region from Santorini

The ports of embarkation for the Cyclades Islands are mainly in the city of Athens, Piraeus. Ferry companies offer regular sailings to popular destinations such as Mykonos, Santorini, Naxos, Paros and many others. The duration of the trip may vary depending on the destination, but in general, it takes about 3-6 hours to travel.

By choosing to travel by ferry, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Aegean Sea while avoiding the hassle of air travel. Ferries are also a great option if you want to travel with your car or motorcycle, as most ferry companies offer transportation services for vehicles.
