Chios to Fourni Route Map
Chios to Fourni is a long southbound run on the Blue Star Ferries line, worked by the Diagoras, taking around six hours. The ship calls at Samos before dropping down to the Fourni archipelago, so it is a slow crossing rather than a direct one. The Diagoras is a full sized car ferry, so there is space to spread out for the duration.
Fourni, properly Fourni Korseon, is a small archipelago between Ikaria and Samos with a serious fishing tradition and one of the largest fleets in Greece for its size. The main port town, also called Fourni, sits in a sheltered bay with tavernas along the harbour front and very good fresh seafood. Beyond that it is quiet and undeveloped, with unspoilt beaches and little in the way of organised tourism.
The link runs about once a week, so timings matter more than usual here. Current schedules and fares are shown in the table below. Fourni is also served by shorter local connections to Ikaria and Samos, which are often the easier way in or out.

Hiring a car
Can you rent a car in Chios?
Yes, and the ferry dock sits right in Chios Town itself, with rental offices a short walk away or at the airport 3-4km south. A car makes sense if you want to reach the Mastic villages in the south or Kambos's walled citrus groves, since buses run less frequently outside town; compare prices at Discover Cars.

Tips for the Chios to Fourni ferry
- The Cyclades are more exposed to the meltemi than the Dodecanese, which are sheltered by the Turkish coast – a relevant factor when comparing summer sea conditions.
- Wheelchair ramps are available at most larger ports, but smaller island ports may require assistance from crew – request help when booking.
- Card payments are accepted at most onboard bars and cafeterias on modern ferries; older vessels may be cash-only – have some euros in your pocket.
