Antikythira to Diakofti Route Map
This is the short leg between Antikythira and Kythira, the busiest of the connections serving the little island. Both Seajets, with the Aqua Jewel, and Porfyroussa Maritime, with the Porfyroussa, cover it, and the crossing runs from about an hour and a half to two and a half hours depending on which boat you get. The two vessels are very different in size and comfort, so it is worth knowing which one you are booked on.
Diakofti is Kythira's main ferry port, a purpose built harbour rather than a village, and it makes no pretence otherwise. There is very little at the port itself, so most people head straight on to Chora, Kapsali or Milopotamos. The rusting wreck of the cargo ship Nordland sits just off the harbour and is the first thing most arrivals notice.
Between the two operators there are sailings most days in season, thinning out considerably in winter. Current departures and fares are listed below. Arrange a hire car or transfer in advance if you are landing late, as taxis at Diakofti are thin on the ground.

Tips for the Antikythira to Diakofti ferry
- On routes operated by a single company, focus on choosing the right class of service rather than comparing operators.
- Onboard food prices are higher than onshore – if you are on a budget, bring sandwiches, fruit, and water from a supermarket before you board.
- The cost of short inter-island ferry tickets in the Cyclades is generally very affordable; island-hopping by short hop is one of the cheapest ways to travel in Greece.
- Very calm sea conditions – glassy water and no swell – are common in early June and late September. These are the most comfortable times to cross the open Aegean.
