Agia Marina to Symi Route Map

Map of the Dodecanese showing the ferry route south-east from Agia Marina to Symi.

Agia Marina to Symi takes around three hours on Dodekanisos Seaways' Dodekanisos Express, with longer routings closer to three and three quarters depending on the calls in between. It is a fast catamaran working down the Dodecanese towards Rhodes. Symi sits close to the Turkish coast, near the end of the chain.

Symi Town's harbour is the reason people come, with tiers of colourful Italianate mansions rising up the hillsides on both sides of the bay. It is a striking arrival by sea and the town is small enough to cover on foot, steps permitting. Panormitis Monastery, on the south of the island, is a separate stop reached by road or boat.

Sailings run a few times a week in season, so there is some flexibility but not a great deal. Current departures and fares are shown in the table below. Most traffic to Symi comes from Rhodes, which has frequent daily connections if the direct sailing does not fit.

Tips for the Agia Marina to Symi ferry

  • Summer heat makes sun-exposed upper decks very intense between 11:00 and 16:00; bring sunscreen with a high SPF and a hat even for short crossings.
  • Wi-Fi is available on board many Greek ferries but is often slow and unreliable; download maps, podcasts, and entertainment before you board.
  • The rear vehicle ramp opens while the vessel is still manoeuvring; do not go down to the vehicle deck until the ferry is fully docked and the ramp is secure.
  • In Symi, the neoclassical mansions in shades of ochre, terracotta, and gold rising above the harbour of Gialos form one of the most striking port scenes in the Dodecanese. St Georges Bay on the island's east coast offers some of the best swimming in the area, and the island is a short ferry ride from Rhodes.
