Tips for the Anafi to Kassos ferry
- If you are island-hopping across multiple islands, pack light – you will be lifting your bag on and off ferries, into overhead racks, and up and down steps repeatedly.
- Return tickets on the same operator are sometimes cheaper than two separate one-way fares – compare both options before confirming.
- A portable power bank is one of the most useful things to carry – reliable mains power is not guaranteed on any vessel.
- Waterproof dry bags or zip-lock bags are useful for protecting electronics and documents from sea spray when spending time on the outdoor deck.
