Ferries to Greek islands

Piraeus is the main port of Athens. This is where you go to get your ferry boat or the hydrofoils and the super fast catamarans to the Greek islands. The easiest way to go from Athens to Piraeus, is by metro which takes you right to the front of Piraeus harbor.

All ferry boats to the Greek islands leave from Akti Tzelepi, Akti Kondili and Akti Poseidonos. At the first two locations the ferries, hydrofoils and catamarans leave to all major Greek islands whereas at Akti Poseidonos you can get the small ferries to the Saronic islands.

The port of Piraeus provides with free bus transfer service. If you travel to Dodecanese islands and Crete, you can take the bus from the main gate opposite of the Peloponnese railway station or you can enter from the gate opposite to the metro station.
