Kos is one of the larger Dodecanese islands, lively and resort-oriented, with beaches, nightlife and family tourism alongside a serious archaeological record. The main harbour sits right beside Kos Town's medieval Castle of the Knights, which you see as the ship comes in. The island is flat enough that cycling is a genuinely practical way of getting about, and the Asklepieion is a short ride out of town.
Between them the operators run around three sailings a week in season. The current timetable and fares are shown below. Kos is a major Dodecanese hub, with links on to Rhodes, Kalymnos, Nisyros and the Turkish coast at Bodrum, plus its own international airport.

Hiring a car
Can you rent a car in Kos?
Yes. The ferry port sits right in Kos Town, about 2km from the centre, a 20-25 minute walk or five-minute drive, with rental desks nearby. Buses run regularly between the main towns but thin out fast once you leave them, so a car is worth it if you want to reach the Asclepion, Mount Dikeos villages or the quieter beaches.

Tips for the Agios Kirykos to Kos ferry
- Booking directly with the ferry operator's own website often gives you the same price as third-party sites and makes changes or cancellations simpler.
- The 15th of August sees mass movement across the Greek ferry network as families travel to their ancestral islands; this is the single busiest day of the year.
- In Kos, ancient history and beach life sit side by side – the Tree of Hippocrates in Kos Town is said to be the very spot where the father of medicine taught, while the nearby Asklepion was one of antiquity's most important healing sanctuaries. The island's long sandy beaches and flat terrain, ideal for cycling, make it one of the most accessible of the Dodecanese.
