Agios Kirykos to Rhodes Ferry

Useful Resources for Your Greek Island Trip

The last known sailing on this route was on 10 September 2026.

No timetable beyond that date has been published yet. Greek operators often release the next season’s schedules only a few months ahead, so this can be a seasonal pause rather than the end of the route. Check whether it is currently available to book through Ferryscanner.

Blue Star Ferries connects Ikaria with Rhodes on the Blue Star Patmos, a run of around twelve hours down the Dodecanese chain. The ship calls at several islands on the way, so it is an overnight passage rather than a direct crossing. Deck fares start around €56, and a cabin is worth booking.

Rhodes is the largest of the Dodecanese and one of the best-known destinations in the Aegean, with a UNESCO-listed medieval Old Town built by the Knights of St John. Ferries come in beside Mandraki harbour, traditionally associated with the Colossus, and the Old Town walls are a short walk away. Beyond the town there are beaches down both coasts and a large resort infrastructure.

The direct sailing runs about once a week, so it needs planning around. Current departures and fares are shown in the table below. Rhodes is a major hub with onward ferries to the rest of the Dodecanese, to Crete, to Piraeus and across to Turkey, plus an international airport.
