Antikythira to Kissamos Route Map

Antikythira to Kissamos is the southern leg of the long chain that links the Peloponnese to western Crete. Seajets runs it with the conventional ferry Aqua Jewel, and the crossing takes a little under two hours in normal conditions. This is open water between two seas, so it can be a lively ride when the wind is up.
Kissamos, also known as Kastelli, sits on the northwest coast of Crete and is a working ferry and farming town rather than a resort. The modern harbour is a couple of kilometres from the old town centre, so most arrivals take a taxi or a waiting bus. It is the natural starting point for Falasarna and the Balos lagoon, both a short drive west, and for the road down to Elafonisi.
Sailings run only a few times a week, and the pattern shifts with the season, so it pays to plan around the boat rather than the other way round. Current departures, durations and fares are shown in the timetable below.

Tips for the Antikythira to Kissamos ferry
- On routes operated by a single company, focus on choosing the right class of service rather than comparing operators.
- Summer schedules are published by most operators in late March or April; check them as soon as they appear if you are planning a July or August trip.
- Cable or combination luggage locks sold at airports offer minimal real security but do deter casual interference; a proper padlock is better.
- A short crossing gives you a very limited window to buy food on board; eat before you board or bring your own snacks.
