Agios Kirykos to Piraeus Route Map

Map of the Aegean showing the ferry route west from Agios Kirykos to Piraeus.

Blue Star Ferries runs the main Ikaria to Athens link on the Blue Star Myconos and Blue Star Patmos, taking around six hours from Agios Kirykos. These are conventional ships with plenty of deck and lounge space, and the route generally calls at Mykonos or Syros on the way.

Piraeus is the main port of Athens, a few kilometres southwest of the centre and one of the busiest passenger ports in Europe. The metro terminus sits right by the harbour with a direct run into central Athens, and suburban rail connects towards the airport. It is a large port with numbered gates from E1 to E12, so check which gate applies to your sailing before you set out.

There are around three sailings a week in season, more in high summer. The current timetable and fares are listed below. Note that some Ikaria services use Evdilos on the north coast instead of Agios Kirykos, so check which port your ticket names.

Hiring a car

Can you rent a car in Piraeus?

Yes, several agencies meet passengers directly at the ferry gates (E1 to E12), so there is no need to arrange transport into central Athens first. It suits travellers continuing on to the mainland rather than islanders, since central Athens is only 20 minutes away and has good metro and bus links. Compare local suppliers at Discover Cars.

Tips for the Agios Kirykos to Piraeus ferry

  • High-speed services between the Cyclades often run reduced frequencies in spring and autumn compared to July and August; check the actual timetable.
  • Padlocking your main bag adds a layer of deterrence against opportunistic interference even though it is not a guarantee of security.
  • Cabin toiletries are minimal or absent on Greek ferries; bring everything you need for the night.
  • At smaller island ports, the quay surface can be cobblestone, wooden planking, or rough concrete – wheeled bags take a beating and can tip on uneven ground.
  • Ferries from Piraeus depart from the main port of Athens, giving easy access to the Acropolis, the world-class Acropolis Museum, and the ancient Agora. The historic Plaka neighbourhood at the foot of the Acropolis hill, with its neoclassical lanes, Roman ruins, and traditional tavernas, is the most atmospheric place to spend time before or after your crossing.
