Antikythira to Kissamos Route Map

Map of Crete showing the ferry route south-east from Antikythira to Kissamos.

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. Fares start around eight euros for a foot passenger, and onward buses from Kissamos run to Chania for connections across Crete.
