Diakofti to Antikythira Route Map
This is the short southbound hop from Kythira to its tiny neighbour, covered by both Seajets with the Aqua Jewel and Porfyroussa Maritime with the smaller Porfyroussa. Journey times run from about an hour and twenty minutes to a little over two hours, depending on the vessel and the routeing. The channel here is exposed, and sailings are cancelled in bad weather more often than on most Greek routes.
Antikythira is one of the most isolated inhabited islands in Greece, with a tiny population and almost no tourist infrastructure. People come for the emptiness and for birdwatching rather than for sights, and the island is best known for the ancient shipwreck offshore that produced the Antikythera Mechanism. Accommodation and food are extremely limited, so arrange both before you sail.
There are sailings most days in season across the two operators, dropping to a few a week in winter. The current timetable and fares are shown below, starting around seven euros. Because onward connections to Crete and the Peloponnese are infrequent, work out your departure before you commit to the arrival.

- Snacks in your bag reduce dependency on the onboard cafeteria and save money – nuts, crackers, fruit, and chocolate travel well.
- Keep your ticket or boarding confirmation accessible throughout the journey – crew occasionally check tickets on board.
