Ferry from Agia Marina (Leros) to Kalymnos (Pothia)

Agia Marina is the main harbour on Leros, a working port on the island's east coast that sits close to the town rather than out on a remote headland, so you're rarely far from a café or taverna while you wait to board. From here it's a short hop south to Kalymnos, one of the most regularly sailed crossings in this part of the Dodecanese. The channel between the two islands is largely sheltered by the surrounding coastline, so the crossing tends to stay calmer than routes that run further out into open water, though it's always worth a glance at the forecast if the wind is up.

Because several operators cover this pair, the timetable is a genuine mix of boat types: fast catamarans that get you across quickly, and slower conventional ferries that call at other ports along the way, which suits travellers weighing up onward connections rather than a straight there-and-back. Sailings are busiest through the summer months, when the route works almost like a shuttle with departures spread across the day; outside high season the service eases back but continues to run, with operators filing their timetables in stages rather than all at once.

Frequently Asked Questions

Tips for the Agia Marina to Kalymnos ferry

• Boarding order on most ferries is: vehicles first, then foot passengers – foot passengers are usually called to board 15–20 minutes before departure.
• Save your e-ticket to your phone's offline storage or take a screenshot before you reach the port, as mobile data can be patchy at the dockside.
• Check the marine weather forecast for your crossing the evening before departure; the Hellenic National Meteorological Service (EMY) publishes forecasts for all sea areas.
• In Kalymnos, world-class rock climbing routes in the island's limestone cliffs have made it a magnet for climbers from across Europe, while the sheltered pebbly beach of Vlychadia and other coastal spots offer superb swimming. The island also has a deep tradition as a sponge-diving centre, which still shapes its culture today.
