Arki to Agathonissi Route Map
Arki to Agathonissi takes half an hour on the Dodekanisos Pride catamaran, or up to about two hours on the Saonisos of SAOS Ferries on its longer routing. Both are calls on a line that ties the smallest northern Dodecanese islands together. It is a short trip between two very small places, and the boats do not hang about.
Agathonissi is one of the least-visited inhabited islands in Greece, a tiny and undeveloped spot near the Turkish coast north of Patmos. Boats tie up at Agios Georgios, a small fishing harbour with a handful of tavernas and rooms. People come for the quiet, simple village life and unspoiled coves, not for sightseeing.
Sailings run most days in season, and the current timetable and fares are shown below, with fares starting around €16. Book a room in advance, because there is very little of it. Services out here thin out sharply outside the summer months and are weather-dependent.

Tips for the Arki to Agathonissi ferry
- A Force 6 wind produces wave heights of 2–3 metres; even passengers who do not normally feel seasick may be affected in these conditions.
- If you have mobility issues, inform the ferry company in advance – assistance can be arranged for boarding and disembarkation at most major ports.
- The price difference between a reserved seat and deck class is minimal on a short hop; deck class is almost always sufficient.
- Luggage can be stored in the overhead racks inside the seating areas or along the corridors; there is no formal left-luggage system.
- If you are travelling with large or heavy bags, load them onto the vessel first and then find your seat, rather than struggling through corridors with luggage in tow.
